وَقَالَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا لَنْ نُؤْمِنَ بِهَذَا الْقُرْآنِ وَلاَ بِالَّذِي بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ وَلَوْ تَرَى إِذِ الظَّالِمُونَ مَوْقُوفُونَ عِنْدَ رَبِّهِمْ يَرْجِعُ بَعْضُهُمْ إِلَى بَعْض ٍ الْقَوْلَ يَقُولُ الَّذِينَ اسْتُضْعِفُوا لِلَّذِينَ اسْتَكْبَرُوا لَوْلاَ أَنْتُمْ لَكُنَّا مُؤْمِنِينَ
Wa Qāla Al-Ladhīna Kafarū Lan Nu'umina Bihadhā Al-Qur'āni Wa Lā Bial-Ladhī Bayna Yadayhi Wa Law Tará 'Idhi Až-žālimūna Mawqūfūna `Inda Rabbihim Yarji`u Ba`Đuhum 'Ilá Ba`Đin Al-Qawla Yaqūlu Al-Ladhīna AstuĐ`ifū Lilladhīna Astakbarū Lawlā 'Antum Lakunnā Mu'uminīna
And those who rejected have said: We will not believe in this Quran, nor in what is already with him. And if you could but see these transgressors when they stand before their Lord, how they will accuse one another back and forth. Those who were weak will say to those who were mighty: If it were not for you, we would have been believers!
