Waqala allatheena layaAAlamoona lawla yukallimuna Allahu awta/teena ayatun kathalika qala allatheenamin qablihim mithla qawlihim tashabahat quloobuhum qadbayyanna al-ayati liqawmin yooqinoona وقال الذين لا يعلمون لولا يكلمنا الله أو تأتينا آية كذلك قال الذين من قبلهم مثل قولهم تشابهت قلوبهم قد بينا الآيات لقوم يوقنون
وَقَالَ الَّذِينَ لاَ يَعْلَمُونَ لَوْلاَ يُكَلِّمُنَا اللّهُ أَوْ تَأْتِينَا آيَةٌ كَذَلِكَ قَالَ الَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِم مِّثْلَ قَوْلِهِمْ تَشَابَهَتْ قُلُوبُهُمْ قَدْ بَيَّنَّا الآيَاتِ لِقَوْمٍ يُوقِنُونَ

  اور جو لوگ علم نہیں رکھتے کہتے ہیں کہ اللہ ہم سے کلام کیوں نہیں فرماتا یا ہمارے پاس (براہِ راست) کوئی نشانی کیوں نہیں آتی؟ اسی طرح ان سے پہلے لوگوں نے بھی انہی جیسی بات کہی تھی، ان (سب) لوگوں کے دل آپس میں ایک جیسے ہیں، بیشک ہم نے یقین والوں کے لئے نشانیاں خوب واضح کر دی ہیں

Yousuf AliSay those without knowledge: "Why speaketh not Allah unto us? or why cometh not unto us a Sign?" So said the people before them words of similar import. Their hearts are alike. We have indeed made clear the Signs unto any people who hold firmly to Faith (in their hearts).
