The Holy Quran 52:39 — Surah At-Tur

Arabic text

أَمْ لَهُ ٱلْبَنَـٰتُ وَلَكُمُ ٱلْبَنُونَ

Translation

Or are (you Mushrikeen saying that) daughters (are) for Him (Allaah, by saying that the angels are His daughters) and (are) sons (reserved exclusively) for you (because you like to have sons)?

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani
