لَقَدْ وُعِدْنَا نَحْنُ وَآبَاؤُنَا هَذَا مِن قَبْلُ إِنْ هَذَا إِلَّا أَسَاطِيرُ الْأَوَّلِينَ
[23:83]
Certainly we are promised this, and (so were) our fathers aforetime; this is naught but stories of those of old.
"Such things have been promised to us and to our fathers before! they are nothing but tales of the ancients!"
We were already promised this, we and our forefathers. Lo! this is naught but fables of the men of old.
