Quran 23:81
بَلْ قَالُوا مِثْلَ مَا قَالَ الْأَوَّلُونَ
And talk as did the people of old.
Indeed, they say, just like what the former peoples said.
On the contrary, they said the same as what the former people used to say.
Nay, but they said the like of what the ancients said.
Nay, they say (the) like (of) what said the former (people).
Aye! they say the like of that which said the ancients.
Nay, but they say the like of what the men of old said.
Nay, but they say the like of what their predecessors of yore had said.
They say exactly the same thing as the people who lived before.
Nay, they say the like of what the ancients said:
Nay, but they say the like of that which said the men of old;
No, but they said what the ancients said before them:
Rather, they say like what the former peoples said.
But they say the like of what the ancients said.
But they say the same as the ancients said,
On the contrary they say things similar to what the ancients said.
