The Holy Quran 6:148 — Surah Al-An'am

Arabic text

سَيَقُولُ ٱلَّذِينَ أَشْرَكُوا۟ لَوْ شَآءَ ٱللَّهُ مَآ أَشْرَكْنَا وَلَآ ءَابَآؤُنَا وَلَا حَرَّمْنَا مِن شَىْءٍ ۚ كَذَٰلِكَ كَذَّبَ ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِمْ حَتَّىٰ ذَاقُوا۟ بَأْسَنَا ۗ قُلْ هَلْ عِندَكُم مِّنْ عِلْمٍ فَتُخْرِجُوهُ لَنَآ ۖ إِن تَتَّبِعُونَ إِلَّا ٱلظَّنَّ وَإِنْ أَنتُمْ إِلَّا تَخْرُصُونَ

Translation

Soon those who commit Shirk will say, “If Allaah willed, neither us nor our forefathers would have committed Shirk, and we would not have forbidden anything (any animal)." In the same manner (as they argue now), those before them had rejected (Imaan) until they tasted Our punishment. Say, "Have you any knowledge (to prove that Allaah is pleased with your Shirk) that you may produce for us? You follow only guesses and all you do is lie."

Tafsir (excerpt) — التفسير الميسر

سيقول الذين أشركوا: لو أراد الله أن لا نشرك -نحن وآباؤنا- وأن لا نحرم شيئًا مِن دونه ما فعلنا ذلك، وردَّ الله عليهم ببيان أن هذه الشبهة قد أثارها الكفار مِن قبلهم، وكذَّبوا بها دعوة رسلهم، واستمَرُّوا على ذلك، حتى نزل بهم عذاب الله.
