Surah An-Nahl (16:86)

وَ اِذَا رَاَ الَّذِيۡنَ اَشۡرَكُوۡا شُرَكَآءَهُمۡ قَالُوۡا رَبَّنَا هٰٓؤُلَاۤءِ شُرَكَآؤُنَا الَّذِيۡنَ كُنَّا نَدۡعُوۡا مِنۡ دُوۡنِكَۚ فَاَلۡقَوۡا اِلَيۡهِمُ الۡقَوۡلَ اِنَّكُمۡ لَـكٰذِبُوۡنَۚ‏ ۝

Wa-itha raa allatheenaashrakoo shurakaahum qaloo rabbana haola-ishurakaona allatheena kunna nadAAoomin doonika faalqaw ilayhimu alqawla innakum lakathiboon
