وَمِنْهُم
مَّن
يَسْتَمِعُ
إِلَيْكَ
وَجَعَلْنَا
عَلَى
قُلُوبِهِمْ
أَكِنَّةً
أَن
يَفْقَهُوهُ
وَفِي
آذَانِهِمْ
وَقْرًا
وَإِن
يَرَوْا
كُلَّ
آيَةٍ
لَّا
يُؤْمِنُوا
بِهَا
حَتَّى
إِذَا
جَاءُوكَ
يُجَادِلُونَكَ
يَقُولُ
الَّذِينَ
كَفَرُوا
إِنْ
هَذَا
إِلَّا
أَسَاطِيرُ
الْأَوَّلِينَ

Some of them listen to you, but We have veiled their hearts so that they cannot understand and made them deaf. They disbelieve all the evidence (of Our existence) that they may have seen. They only come to you for the sake of argument and the disbelievers say that (whatever Muhammad says) is no more than ancient legends.
