وَأَرسَلناهُ إِلىٰ مِائَةِ أَلفٍ أَو يَزيدونَ

And We sent him to [his people of] a hundred thousand or more.

فَآمَنوا فَمَتَّعناهُم إِلىٰ حينٍ

And they believed, so We gave them enjoyment [of life] for a time.

فَاستَفتِهِم أَلِرَبِّكَ البَناتُ وَلَهُمُ البَنونَ

So inquire of them, [O Muhammad], "Does your Lord have daughters while they have sons?

أَم خَلَقنَا المَلائِكَةَ إِناثًا وَهُم شاهِدونَ

Or did We create the angels as females while they were witnesses?"

أَلا إِنَّهُم مِن إِفكِهِم لَيَقولونَ

Unquestionably, it is out of their [invented] falsehood that they say,

أَصطَفَى البَناتِ عَلَى البَنينَ

Has He chosen daughters over sons?

ما لَكُم كَيفَ تَحكُمونَ

What is [wrong] with you? How do you make judgement?

أَفَلا تَذَكَّرونَ

Then will you not be reminded?

أَم لَكُم سُلطانٌ مُبينٌ

Or do you have a clear authority?

فَأتوا بِكِتابِكُم إِن كُنتُم صادِقينَ

Then produce your scripture, if you should be truthful.
