Al-A'raf · Ayah 71 · Juz 8 · Page 159

قَالَ قَدۡ وَقَعَ عَلَيۡكُم مِّن رَّبِّكُمۡ رِجۡسٞ وَغَضَبٌۖ أَتُجَٰدِلُونَنِي فِيٓ أَسۡمَآءٖ سَمَّيۡتُمُوهَآ أَنتُمۡ وَءَابَآؤُكُم مَّا نَزَّلَ ٱللَّهُ بِهَا مِن سُلۡطَٰنٖۚ فَٱنتَظِرُوٓاْ إِنِّي مَعَكُم مِّنَ ٱلۡمُنتَظِرِينَ ٧١

Qāla qad waqaʿa ʿalaykum mir rabbikum rijsuw wa ghaḍab, atujādilūnanī fī asmāʾin sammaytumūhā antum wa ābāʾukum mā nazzalallāhu bihā min sulṭān, fantaẓirū innī maʿakum minal-muntaẓirīn.

[Hūd] said, "Already have defilement and anger fallen upon you from your Lord. Do you dispute with me concerning [mere] names you have named them,1 you and your fathers, for which Allāh has not sent down any authority? Then wait; indeed, I am with you among those who wait."

Translation: Sahih International
