مَّا
لَهُم
بِهِ
مِنْ
عِلْمٍ
وَلَا
لِآبَائِهِمْ
كَبُرَتْ
كَلِمَةً
تَخْرُجُ
مِنْ
أَفْوَاهِهِمْ
إِن
يَقُولُونَ
إِلَّا
كَذِبًا
mā lahum bihī min ʿilmin wa-lā li-ʾābāʾihim kaburat kalimatan takhruju min ʾafwāhihim ʾin yaqūlūna ʾillā kadhiban
No knowledge have they of such a thing, nor had their fathers. It is a grievous thing that issues from their mouths as a saying what they say is nothing but falsehood!
— Abdullah Yusufali
They do not have any knowledge of that, nor did their fathers. Monstrous is the utterance that comes out of their mouths, and they say nothing but a lie.
