ما جعل الله من بحيرة ولا سائبة ولا وصيلة ولا حام ولكن الذين كفروا يفترون على الله الكذب واكثرهم لا يعقلون

It was not God Who instituted (superstitions Like those of) a slit-ear She-camel, or a she-camel Let loose for free pasture, Or idol sacrifices for Twin-births in animals, Or stallion-camels Freed from work It is blasphemers Who Invent a lie Against God; but most Of them lack wisdom.
