Surah Al-Isra — 17:40

أَفَأَصْفَىٰكُمْ رَبُّكُم بِٱلْبَنِينَ وَٱتَّخَذَ مِنَ ٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةِ إِنَـٰثًا ۚ إِنَّكُمْ لَتَقُولُونَ قَوْلًا عَظِيمًا

Afa asfaakum rabbukum bilbaneena wattakhaza minal malaaa'ikati inaasaa; innakum lataqooloona qawlan 'azeema

What? Has your Lord favoured you people with sons and taken daughters for Himself from the angels?What a monstrous thing for you to say!

Has your Lord then favored you with sons and taken for himself daughters from among the angels? You are saying something monstrous.
