مَّا لَهُم بِهِۦ مِنۡ عِلۡمٖ وَلَا لِأٓبَآئِهِمۡۚ كَبُرَتۡ كَلِمَةٗ تَخۡرُجُ مِنۡ أَفۡوَٰهِهِمۡۚ إِن يَقُولُونَ إِلَّا كَذِبٗا ٥

Mā lahum bihī min ʿilmiw wa lā liʾābāʾihim, kaburat kalimatan takhruju min afwāhihim, iy yaqūlūna illā kadhibā.

They have no knowledge of it,1 nor had their fathers. Grave is the word that comes out of their mouths; they speak not except a lie.

Translation: Sahih International
