وَاسْأَلْ
مَنْ
أَرْسَلْنَا
مِن
قَبْلِكَ
مِن
رُّسُلِنَا
أَجَعَلْنَا
مِن
دُونِ
الرَّحْمَنِ
آلِهَةً
يُعْبَدُونَ
wa-sʾal man ʾarsalnā min qablika min rusulinā ʾa-jaʿalnā min dūni r-raḥmāni ʾālihatan yuʿbadūna
Ask those of Our apostles We have sent before you: Did We set up any gods to be worshipped besides the All-beneficent?
— Ali Quli Qarai
And question thou our messengers whom We sent before thee; did We appoint any deities other than (Allah) Most Gracious, to be worshipped?
