يا بگوييد: «پدرانمان پيش از ما مشرك بودند، ما هم فرزندانی بعد از آنها بوديم؛ (و چارهای جز پيروی از آنان نداشتيم؛) آيا ما را به آنچه باطلگرايان انجام دادند مجازات میكنی؟!»
Or [lest] you say, "It was only that our fathers associated [others in worship] with Allah before, and we were but descendants after them. Then would You destroy us for what the falsifiers have done?"
