ويعبدون من دون الله ما لا يضرهم ولا ينفعهم ويقولون هؤلاء شفعاؤنا عند الله قل اتنبئون الله بما لا يعلم في السماوات ولا في الارض سبحانه وتعالى عما يشركون

They serve, besides God, Things that hurt them not Nor profit them, and they say: "These are our intercessors With God." Say: "Do ye Indeed inform God of something He knows not, in the heavens Or on earth?—Glory to Him! And far is He above the partners They ascribe (to Him)!"
