وَإِذَا
قِيلَ
لَهُمُ
اتَّبِعُوا
مَا
أَنزَلَ
اللَّهُ
قَالُوا
بَلْ
نَتَّبِعُ
مَا
وَجَدْنَا
عَلَيْهِ
آبَاءَنَا
أَوَلَوْ
كَانَ
الشَّيْطَانُ
يَدْعُوهُمْ
إِلَى
عَذَابِ
السَّعِيرِ

When they are told to follow the (Revelation) that Allah has sent down, they say: "Nay, we shall follow the ways that we found our fathers (following). "What! even if it is Satan beckoning them to the Penalty of the (Blazing) Fire?
— Abdullah Yusufali
