43.21 . Or have We given them any Scripture before ( this Quran ) so that they are holding fast thereto?
43. 43.22 . Nay , for they say only : Lo! we found our fathers following a religion , and we are guided by their footprints .
43. 43.23 . And even so We sent not a warner before thee ( Muhammad ) into any township but its luxurious ones said : Lo! we found our fathers following a religion , and we are following their footprints .
43. 43.24 . ( And the warner ) said : What! Even though I bring you better guidance than that ye found your fathers following? They answered : Lo! in what ye bring we are disbelievers .
43. 43.25 . So We requited them . Then see the nature of the consequence for the rejecters!
43. 43.26 . And when Abraham said unto his father and his folk : Lo! I am innocent of what ye worship
43. 43.27 . Save Him Who did create me , for He will surely guide me .
43. 43.28 . And he made It a word enduring among his seed , that haply they might return .
43. 43.29 . Nay , but I let these and their fathers enjoy life ( only ) till there should come unto them the Truth and a messenger making plain .
43. 43.30 . And now that the Truth hath come unto them they say : This is mere magic , and lo! we are disbelievers therein .
