But We cast him, upon the shore, and he was ill, (145)

and We caused a pumpkin tree to grow over him. (146)

Then We sent him to a hundred thousand or more, (147)

and they believed, and We gave them enjoyment for awhile. (148)

Now, ask them, has your Lord daughters, and they sons? (149)

'Allah has begotten? ' They are truly liars. (152)

Has He chosen daughters above sons? (153)
