سَيَقُولُونَ ثَلٰثَةٌ رَابِعُهُمْ كَلْبُهُمْۚ وَيَقُولُونَ خَمْسَةٌ سَادِسُهُمْ كَلْبُهُمْ رَجْمًا بِالْغَيْبِۚ وَيَقُولُونَ سَبْعَةٌ وَثَامِنُهُمْ كَلْبُهُمْۜ قُلْ رَبّ۪ٓي اَعْلَمُ بِعِدَّتِهِمْ مَا يَعْلَمُهُمْ اِلَّا قَل۪يلٌ۠ فَلَا تُمَارِ ف۪يهِمْ اِلَّا مِرَٓاءً ظَاهِرًۖا وَلَا تَسْتَفْتِ ف۪يهِمْ مِنْهُمْ اَحَدًا۟ ٢٢

English Translation
22Some time later, some people, guessing blindly at the unknown, will say: "They were three, and the fourth was their dog"; some will say: "They were five, and the sixth was their dog"; and another will say: "They were seven, and the eighth was their dog." Say: "My Lord knows best how many they were." Do not forget that few people have any knowledge about them. Content yourself on this matter with the knowledge given to you; do not enter into argument with them, and do not ask anyone at all about them!
