But when Moses brought them Our clear signs bayyinātin a circumstantial qualifier they said ‘This is nothing but concocted invented sorcery. And we never heard of such a thing to have ever existed in the days of our forefathers’.
- 28:3636
فَلَمَّا جَاءَهُمْ مُوسَىٰ بِآيَاتِنَا بَيِّنَاتٍ قَالُوا مَا هَٰذَا إِلَّا سِحْرٌ مُفْتَرًى وَمَا سَمِعْنَا بِهَٰذَا فِي آبَائِنَا الْأَوَّلِينَ
Then when Musa came unto them with Our manifest signs, they said: this is naught but magic fabricated; and we heard not of this among our fathers of old.
