وَلَىِٕنْ سَاَلْتَهُمْ مَّنْ خَلَقَهُمْ لَيَقُوْلُنَّ اللّٰهُ فَاَنّٰى يُؤْفَكُوْنَۙ  ( الزخرف: ٨٧ )

وَلَئِن
And if
sa-altahum
سَأَلْتَهُم
you ask them
man
مَّنْ
who
khalaqahum
خَلَقَهُمْ
created them
layaqūlunna
لَيَقُولُنَّ
they will certainly say
l-lahu
ٱللَّهُۖ
"Allah"
fa-annā
فَأَنَّىٰ
Then how
yu'fakūna
يُؤْفَكُونَ
are they deluded?

Wa la'in sa altahum man khalaqahum la yaqoolun nallaahu fa annaa yu'fakoon (az-Zukhruf 43:87)

Sahih International:

And if you asked them who created them, they would surely say, "Allah." So how are they deluded? (Az-Zukhruf [43] : 87)

And if you ask them as to who has created them, they will certainly say, “Allah”. Then, to where are they driven back (by their false desires)?
