Sura 46
Aya 17
17
وَالَّذي قالَ لِوالِدَيهِ أُفٍّ لَكُما أَتَعِدانِني أَن أُخرَجَ وَقَد خَلَتِ القُرونُ مِن قَبلي وَهُما يَستَغيثانِ اللَّهَ وَيلَكَ آمِن إِنَّ وَعدَ اللَّهِ حَقٌّ فَيَقولُ ما هٰذا إِلّا أَساطيرُ الأَوَّلينَ

George Sale

He who saith unto his parents, fie on you! Do ye promise me that I shall be taken forth from the grave, and restored to life; when many generations have passed away before me, and none of them have returned back? And his parents implore God's assistance, and say to their son, alas for thee! Believe: For the promise of God is true. But he answereth, this is no other than silly fables of the ancients.
