ٱلْجَاثِيَة : ٢٥

  • وَإِذَا And when
  • تُتۡلَىٰ are recited
  • عَلَيۡهِمۡ to them
  • ءَايَٰتُنَا Our Verses
  • بَيِّنَٰتٖ clear
  • مَّا not
  • كَانَ is
  • حُجَّتَهُمۡ their argument
  • إِلَّآ except
  • أَن that
  • قَالُواْ they say
  • ٱئۡتُواْ Bring
  • بِـَٔابَآئِنَآ our forefathers
  • إِن if
  • كُنتُمۡ you are
  • صَٰدِقِينَ truthful
And when Our verses are recited to them as clear evidences, their argument is only that they say, "Bring [back] our forefathers, if you should be truthful."
And when Our signs, of Al-Qur'an, indicating Our power to resurrect, are recited to them, being clear signs, evident [signs] (bayyinaatin, 'clear signs', is a circumstantial qualifier), their only argument is to say, 'Bring us our fathers, alive, if you are being truthful', [when you say] that we will be resurrected.
