قَالُواْ يٰصَالِحُ قَدْ كُنتَ فِينَا مَرْجُوّاً قَبْلَ هَـٰذَا أَتَنْهَانَآ أَن نَّعْبُدَ مَا يَعْبُدُ آبَاؤُنَا وَإِنَّنَا لَفِي شَكٍّ مِّمَّا تَدْعُونَآ إِلَيْهِ مُرِيبٍ
٦٢
-Hûd ( هود )

Tafsir al-Jalalayn

They said, ‘O Sālih, you had been one of promise among us, that is to say, we had hoped that you would become [our] chief, before this, that has issued from you. Do you forbid us to worship what our fathers worshipped?, in the way of graven images? Truly we are in grave doubt, [doubt] creating [great] uncertainty, concerning that to which you are calling us’, in the way of [affirming] God’s Oneness.
