Sura 5
Aya 103
103
ما جَعَلَ اللَّهُ مِن بَحيرَةٍ وَلا سائِبَةٍ وَلا وَصيلَةٍ وَلا حامٍ ۙ وَلٰكِنَّ الَّذينَ كَفَروا يَفتَرونَ عَلَى اللَّهِ الكَذِبَ ۖ وَأَكثَرُهُم لا يَعقِلونَ

N. J. Dawood

God demands neither a bahīrah, nor a sā’ibah, nor a waṣīlah, nor a ḥāmi.1 The unbelievers invent falsehoods about God. Most of them are lacking in judgement.
