يُونُس : ٣٨

  • أَمۡ Or
  • يَقُولُونَ (do) they say
  • ٱفۡتَرَىٰهُۖ He has invented it
  • قُلۡ Say
  • فَأۡتُواْ Then bring
  • بِسُورَةٖ a Surah
  • مِّثۡلِهِۦ like it
  • وَٱدۡعُواْ and call
  • مَنِ whoever
  • ٱسۡتَطَعۡتُم you can
  • مِّن besides Allah
  • دُونِ besides Allah

Or do they say [about the Prophet (ﷺ)], "He invented it?" Say, "Then bring forth a sūrah like it and call upon [for assistance] whomever you can besides Allāh, if you should be truthful."
Or do they say, 'He has invented it'?, Muhammad may peace and salutation be upon him has invented it. Say: 'Then bring a soora like it, in terms of the clarity and the rhetorical excellence of its language, by way of invention, for you are eloquent speakers of Arabic like me; and call upon whom you can, for help in this [matter], besides God, that is, other than Him, if you are truthful', in [saying] that this is an invention. But they were not able to do this.
