Translation of the meanings Ayah: (17) Surah: Al-Ahqāf
وَٱلَّذِي قَالَ لِوَٰلِدَيۡهِ أُفّٖ لَّكُمَآ أَتَعِدَانِنِيٓ أَنۡ أُخۡرَجَ وَقَدۡ خَلَتِ ٱلۡقُرُونُ مِن قَبۡلِي وَهُمَا يَسۡتَغِيثَانِ ٱللَّهَ وَيۡلَكَ ءَامِنۡ إِنَّ وَعۡدَ ٱللَّهِ حَقّٞ فَيَقُولُ مَا هَٰذَآ إِلَّآ أَسَٰطِيرُ ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ
17. But he who says to his parents: "Fie on you! Do you tell me that I will be resurrected, when generations have already passed on before me9?" While they both (the parents) call for Allah’s help (and say): O no, believe, the Promise of Allah is true. But he says: "This is only tales (lies) of the ancients."
9. And none of them were resurrected. Allah punishes severely the adult child that mocks a father and scorns to obey a mother.
