وَإِذا قيلَ لَهُم تَعالَوا إِلىٰ ما أَنزَلَ اللَّهُ وَإِلَى الرَّسولِ قالوا حَسبُنا ما وَجَدنا عَلَيهِ ءاباءَنا أَوَلَو كانَ ءاباؤُهُم لا يَعلَمونَ شَيـًٔا وَلا يَهتَدونَ
wa izaa qeela lahum ta’aalaw ilaa maaa anzalallaahu wa ilar Rasooli qaaloo hasbunaa maa wajadnaa ‘alaihi aabaaa’anaa; awa law kaana aabaaa’uhum laa ya’lamoona shai’anw wa laa yahtadoon
