Sura 2 Al-Baqarah (The Cow), ayah 71

  1. قَالَ إِنَّهُ يَقُولُ إِنَّهَا بَقَرَةٌ لَا ذَلُولٌ تُثِيرُ الْأَرْضَ وَلَا تَسْقِي الْحَرْثَ مُسَلَّمَةٌ لَا شِيَةَ فِيهَا ۚ قَالُوا الْآنَ جِئْتَ بِالْحَقِّ ۚ فَذَبَحُوهَا وَمَا كَادُوا يَفْعَلُونَ

    Translation by words

    قَالَ
    He said,
    إِنَّهُۥ
    "Indeed, He
    يَقُولُ
    says,
    إِنَّهَا
    "[Indeed] it
    بَقَرَةٌ
    (is) a cow
    لَّا
    not
    ذَلُولٌ
    trained
    تُثِيرُ
    to plough
    ٱلْأَرْضَ
    the earth,
    وَلَا
    and not
    تَسْقِى
    water
    ٱلْحَرْثَ
    the field;
    مُسَلَّمَةٌ
    sound,
    لَّا
    no
    شِيَةَ
    blemish
    فِيهَا
    in it."
    قَالُوا۟
    They said,
    ٱلْـَٰٔنَ
    "Now
    جِئْتَ
    you have come
    بِٱلْحَقِّ
    with the truth."
    فَذَبَحُوهَا
    So they slaughtered it,
    وَمَا
    and not
    كَادُوا۟
    they were near
    يَفْعَلُونَ
    (to) doing (it).

    He said, "He says, 'It is a cow neither trained to plow the earth nor to irrigate the field, one free from fault with no spot upon her.' " They said, "Now you have come with the truth." So they slaughtered her, but they could hardly do it.
