Koran 43:58 — soera Az-Zukhruf, vers 58

وَقَالُوٓاْ ءَأَٰلِهَتُنَا خَيۡرٌ أَمۡ هُوَۚ مَا ضَرَبُوهُ لَكَ إِلَّا جَدَلَۢاۚ بَلۡ هُمۡ قَوۡمٌ خَصِمُونَ

En zij zeiden: “Zijn onze goden beter of is hij(Isa) dat?” Zij noemen niet het al eerder genoemde voorbeeld behalve als tegenargument. Welnee! Maar zij zijn een volk die redetwisten.

And they said, "Are your gods better, or is he?" They did not present the comparison except for [mere] argument. But, [in fact], they are a people prone to dispute
