The actions of idolaters, their deviations in worship and their worldviews

Yet they make some of His creatures His offspring! Man is surely most ungrateful.

Or has He taken from those He has created daughters for Himself, and assigned sons to you?

Yet when news of (a daughter) they had reserved for Ar-Rahman comes to one of them, his face is blackened (with shame), and he grieves in silence inwardly.

Can one who has been raised on ornaments and cannot present her case coolly in a dispute (be associated with God?)

Yet they have made the angels, who are creatures of Ar-Rahman, females. Did they witness their creation? We shall record their testimony, and they will be interrogated.

Yet they say: "If Ar-Rahman had so pleased we would not have worshipped them." They have no knowledge of it in the least. They only make up lies.

Did We give them a Scripture before this to which they are holding fast?

In fact they say: "We found our fathers following a certain way, and are guided by their footprints."

Thus, We never sent an admonisher to a settlement before you but the decadent among them said. "We found our fathers following this way, and we are walking in their footsteps."

"Even if I bring you a better guidance," he rejoined, "than the one you found your fathers on?" Still they said: "We do not believe in what you have brought."

Then We punished them. So look at the fate of those who denied.
