Quran 16:35

The idolaters say, “Had Allah willed, we would not have worshiped anything besides Him, neither us, nor our ancestors, nor would we have prohibited anything besides His prohibitions.” Those before them did likewise. Are the messengers responsible for anything but clear communication?

And the idolaters say: Had Allah willed, we had not worshipped aught beside Him, we and our fathers, nor had we forbidden aught without (command from) Him. Even so did those before them. Are the messengers charged with aught save plain conveyance (of the message)?

Bir de müşrikler dediler ki: «Allah dileseydi ne biz, ne atalarımız ondan başka hiç bir şey'e tapmazdık ve onsuz hiç bir şey tahrim etmezdik, bunlardan evvelkiler de böyle yaptılar, buna karşı peygamberin vazifesi ancak açık bir tebliğden ibarettir

Ceux qui associent d’autres divinités à Dieu disent : Si Dieu avait voulu, nous et nos pères, nous n’aurions adoré que lui seul ; nous n’aurions interdit l’usage que de ce que lui-même aurait interdit. Ceux qui les ont précédés ont agi de même. Les apôtres ne sont tenus que de prêcher ouvertement.

De afgodendienaars zeggen: Indien het Gode had behaagd, zouden wij niets buiten hem hebben aangebeden, wij en onze vaderen; wij zouden slechts verboden hebben wat hij zelf verbood. Zij die hen voorafgingen, handelden evenzoo. Maar moeten de gezanten iets anders doen dan openbaar prediken?

Quei che associano altre divinità a Dio dicono: Se Dio l’avesse voluto, noi e i nostri padri, non avremmo adorato che lui solo; avremmo interdetto l’uso di ciò ch’egli stesso ha proibito. Quei che li hanno preceduti hanno agito egualmente. Gli apostoli sono tenuti a predicare apertamente.
