An-Nahl 16:35 وقال الذين اشركوا لو شاء الله ما عبدنا من دونه من شيء نحن ولا اباونا ولا حرمنا من دونه من شيء كذالك فعل الذين من قبلهم فهل على الرسل الا البلاغ المبين ٣٥
وَقَالَ
ٱلَّذِينَ
أَشۡرَكُواْ
لَوۡ
شَآءَ
ٱللَّهُ
مَا

مِن
دُونِهِۦ
مِن
شَيۡءٖ
نَّحۡنُ
وَلَآ
ءَابَآؤُنَا
وَلَا
حَرَّمۡنَا
مِن
دُونِهِۦ
مِن
شَيۡءٖۚ
كَذَٰلِكَ
فَعَلَ
ٱلَّذِينَ
مِن
قَبۡلِهِمۡۚ
فَهَلۡ
عَلَى
ٱلرُّسُلِ
إِلَّا
ٱلۡبَلَٰغُ
ٱلۡمُبِينُ
