وَقَالَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ لِلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ لَوْ كَانَ خَيْرًا مَّا سَبَقُونَآ إِلَيْهِ ۚ وَإِذْ لَمْ يَهْتَدُوا۟ بِهِۦ فَسَيَقُولُونَ هَـٰذَآ إِفْكٌ قَدِيمٌ

TRANSLITERATION

Waqālal-ladhīna kafarū lilladhīna āmanū law kāna khayram mā sabaqūnā ilayh, waʾidh lam yahtadū bihī fasayaqūlūna hādhā ifkun qadīm

ENGLISH TRANSLATION · TALAL ITANI

Those who disbelieve say to those who believe, “If it were anything good, they would not have preceded us to it.” And since they were not guided by it, they will say, “This is an ancient lie.”
