ان هي الا اسماء سميتموها انتم واباوكم ما انزل الله بها من سلطان ان يتبعون الا الظن وما تهوى الانفس ولقد جاءهم من ربهم الهدى ٢٣
إِنْ هِىَ إِلَّآ أَسْمَآءٌۭ سَمَّيْتُمُوهَآ أَنتُمْ وَءَابَآؤُكُم مَّآ أَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ بِهَا مِن سُلْطَـٰنٍ ۚ إِن يَتَّبِعُونَ إِلَّا ٱلظَّنَّ وَمَا تَهْوَى ٱلْأَنفُسُ ۖ وَلَقَدْ جَآءَهُم مِّن رَّبِّهِمُ ٱلْهُدَىٰٓ ٢٣
إِنۡ
هِيَ
إِلَّآ
أَسۡمَآءٞ
سَمَّيۡتُمُوهَآ
أَنتُمۡ
وَءَابَآؤُكُم
مَّآ
أَنزَلَ
ٱللَّهُ
بِهَا
مِن
سُلۡطَٰنٍۚ
إِن
يَتَّبِعُونَ
إِلَّا
ٱلظَّنَّ
وَمَا
تَهۡوَى
ٱلۡأَنفُسُۖ
وَلَقَدۡ
جَآءَهُم
مِّن
رَّبِّهِمُ
ٱلۡهُدَىٰٓ
٢٣
These ˹idols˺ are mere names that you and your forefathers have made up1—a practice Allah has never authorized. They follow nothing but ˹inherited˺ assumptions and whatever ˹their˺ souls desire, although ˹true˺ guidance has already come to them from their Lord.
