Surah Fussilat Verse 14 - English Translation by Dr Kamal Omar
Surah Fussilatإِذۡ جَآءَتۡهُمُ ٱلرُّسُلُ مِنۢ بَيۡنِ أَيۡدِيهِمۡ وَمِنۡ خَلۡفِهِمۡ أَلَّا تَعۡبُدُوٓاْ إِلَّا ٱللَّهَۖ قَالُواْ لَوۡ شَآءَ رَبُّنَا لَأَنزَلَ مَلَـٰٓئِكَةٗ فَإِنَّا بِمَآ أُرۡسِلۡتُم بِهِۦ كَٰفِرُونَ
When the Messengers came to them from in between their hands (i.e., who passed away before them) and from behind them [who came after them (saying)] that: “Pay not obedience but to Allah (Alone).” They said: “If Our Nourisher-Sustainer willed, He would have surely sent down angels. So indeed we, with what you have been sent therewith (are) disbelievers.”
