The Holy Quran 17:88 — Surah Al-Isra

Arabic text

قُل لَّئِنِ ٱجْتَمَعَتِ ٱلْإِنسُ وَٱلْجِنُّ عَلَىٰٓ أَن يَأْتُوا۟ بِمِثْلِ هَـٰذَا ٱلْقُرْءَانِ لَا يَأْتُونَ بِمِثْلِهِۦ وَلَوْ كَانَ بَعْضُهُمْ لِبَعْضٍ ظَهِيرًا

Translation

Say, "If mankind and the Jinn combine to (try to) produce something similar to this Qur'aan, they would not be able to produce anything like it even if they assistant each other."
