Al-A’ráf 7:131 فاذا جاءتهم الحسنة قالوا لنا هاذه وان تصبهم سيية يطيروا بموسى ومن معه الا انما طايرهم عند الله ولاكن اكثرهم لا يعلمون ١٣١
فَإِذَا
جَآءَتۡهُمُ
ٱلۡحَسَنَةُ
قَالُواْ
لَنَا
هَٰذِهِۦۖ
وَإِن
تُصِبۡهُمۡ
سَيِّئَةٞ
يَطَّيَّرُواْ
بِمُوسَىٰ
وَمَن
مَّعَهُۥٓۗ
أَلَآ
إِنَّمَا
طَٰٓئِرُهُمۡ
عِندَ
ٱللَّهِ
وَلَٰكِنَّ
أَكۡثَرَهُمۡ
لَا
يَعۡلَمُونَ

But whenever good befell them, they said: This is ours; and whenever evil smote them they ascribed it to the evil auspices of Moses and those with him. Surely their evil auspice was only with Allah. But most of them knew not.
— M. Pickthall
But when good [i.e., provision] came to them, they said, "This is ours [by right]." And if a bad [condition] struck them, they saw an evil omen in Moses and those with him. Unquestionably, their fortune is with Allāh, but most of them do not know.
— Saheeh International
But when good (times) came, they said, "This is due to us;" When gripped by calamity, they ascribed it to evil omens connected with Moses and those with him! Behold! in truth the omens of evil are theirs in Allah's sight, but most of them do not understand!
