Al-Ahqaf (The Wind-Curved Sandhills)
Verse 8of 35
أَمْ يَقُولُونَ ٱفْتَرَىٰهُ ۖ قُلْ إِنِ ٱفْتَرَيْتُهُۥ فَلَا تَمْلِكُونَ لِى مِنَ ٱللَّهِ شَيْـًٔا ۖ هُوَ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا تُفِيضُونَ فِيهِ ۖ كَفَىٰ بِهِۦ شَهِيدًۢا بَيْنِى وَبَيْنَكُمْ ۖ وَهُوَ ٱلْغَفُورُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ﴿٨﴾
Translation (Sahih International)
Or do they say, "He has invented it?" Say, "If I have invented it, you will not possess for me [the power of protection] from Allah at all. He is most knowing of that in which you are involved. Sufficient is He as Witness between me and you, and He is the Forgiving the Merciful."

Refuting Claims of the Idolators about the Qur'an and the MessengerConcerning the disbelief and rebellion of the idolators, Allah says that when the clear Ayat of Allah are recited to them they say;هَـذَا سِحْرٌ مُّبِينٌ(This is plain magic!) meaning, simple magic. In this statement of theirs, they have lied, invented a falsehood, went astray and disbelieved.أَمْ يَقُولُونَ افْتَرَاهُ(Or they say: "He has fabricated it." ) They are referring to Muhammad .
