23. The polytheists of Arabia were calling the angels the daughters of Allah Almighty, yet they were afraid of having daughters of their own. In fact, some of them were burying their ughters alive. Then, it is said what you dislike for yourselves, the same you are suggesting or proposing for Allah Almighty. Are you not mad?
