Sura 11 Hud, ayah 62

  1. قَالُوا يَا صَالِحُ قَدْ كُنْتَ فِينَا مَرْجُوًّا قَبْلَ هَٰذَا ۖ أَتَنْهَانَا أَنْ نَعْبُدَ مَا يَعْبُدُ آبَاؤُنَا وَإِنَّنَا لَفِي شَكٍّ مِمَّا تَدْعُونَا إِلَيْهِ مُرِيبٍ

    قَالُوا۟
    They said,
    يَٰصَٰلِحُ
    O Salih!
    قَدْ
    Verily
    كُنتَ
    you were
    فِينَا
    among us
    مَرْجُوًّا
    the one in whom hope was placed
    قَبْلَ
    before
    هَٰذَآ
    this.
    أَتَنْهَىٰنَآ
    Do you forbid us
    أَن
    that
    نَّعْبُدَ
    we worship
    مَا
    what
    يَعْبُدُ
    our forefathers worshipped?
    ءَابَآؤُنَا
    our forefathers worshipped?
    وَإِنَّنَا
    And indeed we
    لَفِى
    surely (are) in
    شَكٍّ
    doubt
    مِّمَّا
    about what
    تَدْعُونَآ
    you call us
    إِلَيْهِ
    to it,
    مُرِيبٍ
    suspicious."

    They said, "O Salih, you were among us a man of promise before this. Do you forbid us to worship what our fathers worshipped? And indeed we are, about that to which you invite us, in disquieting doubt."
