Those who disbelieve say: This is naught but a lie that he hath invented, and other folk have helped him with it, so that they have produced a slander and a lie.

Yusuf Ali — Abdullah Yusuf Ali

But the misbelievers say: "Naught is this but a lie which he has forged, and others have helped him at it." In truth it is they who have put forward an iniquity and a falsehood.

تفسير ابن كثير — Ismail ibn Kathir

يقول تعالى مخبرا عن سخافة عقول الجهلة من الكفار ، في قولهم عن القرآن : ( إن هذا إلا إفك ) : أي : كذب ، ( افتراه ) يعنون النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم ، ( وأعانه عليه قوم آخرون ) أي : واستعان على جمعه بقوم آخرين . قال الله تعالى : ( فقد جاءوا ظلما وزورا ) أي : فقد افتروا هم قولا باطلا ، هم يعلمون أنه باطل ، ويعرفون كذب أنفسهم فيما يزعمون .
