وَلَوْ نَزَّلْنَا عَلَيْكَ كِتَابا ً فِي قِرْطَاس ٍ فَلَمَسُوه ُُ بِأَيْدِيهِمْ لَقَالَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا إِنْ هَذَا إِلاَّ سِحْر ٌ مُبِين ٌ
Wa Law Nazzalnā `Alayka Kitābāan Fī Qirţāsin Falamasūhu Bi'aydīhim Laqāla Al-Ladhīna Kafarū 'In Hādhā 'Illā Siĥrun Mubīnun

And if We had sent down to you a book already written on paper, and they touched it with their own hands, then those who have rejected would say: "This is but clear magic!"





pl.

6:91
وَمَا قَدَرُوا اللَّهَ حَقَّ قَدْرِهِ~ِ إِذْ قَالُوا مَا أَنزَلَ اللَّهُ عَلَى بَشَر ٍ مِنْ شَيْء ٍ قُلْ مَنْ أَنزَلَ الْكِتَابَ الَّذِي جَاءَ بِه ِِ مُوسَى نُورا ً وَهُدى ً لِلنَّاسِ تَجْعَلُونَه ُُ قَرَاطِيسَ تُبْدُونَهَا وَتُخْفُونَ كَثِيرا ً وَعُلِّمْتُمْ مَا لَمْ تَعْلَمُوا أَنْتُمْ وَلاَ آبَاؤُكُمْ قُلِ اللَّهُ ثُمَّ ذَرْهُمْ فِي خَوْضِهِمْ يَلْعَبُونَ
Wa Mā Qadarū Allāha Ĥaqqa Qadrihi 'Idh Qālū Mā 'Anzala Allāhu `Alá Basharin Min Shay'in Qul Man 'Anzala Al-Kitāba Al-Ladhī Jā'a Bihi Mūsá Nūrāan Wa Hudáan Lilnnāsi Taj`alūnahu Qarāţīsa Tubdūnahā Wa Tukhfūna Kathīrāan Wa `Ullimtum Mā Lam Ta`lamū 'Antum Wa Lā 'Ābā'uukum Quli Allāhu Thumma Dharhum Fī KhawĐihim Yal`abūna

And they did not appreciate God as He deserves to be appreciated, for they said: "God has never sent down anything to any human being." Say: "Who then has sent down the Book which Moses had come with, a light and a guidance for the people? You treat it simply as paper for display, and you conceal much; and you were taught what neither you nor your fathers knew." Say: "God has." Then leave them playing in their folly.
