قَدْ خَسِرَ الَّذٖینَ قَتَلُٓوا اَوْلَادَهُمْ سَفَهًا بِغَیْرِ عِلْمٍ وَحَرَّمُوا مَا رَزَقَهُمُ اللّٰهُ افْتِرَٓاءً عَلَى اللّٰهِؕ قَدْ ضَلُّوا وَمَا كَانُوا مُهْتَدٖینَࣖ

Translations

Those will have lost who killed their children in foolishness without knowledge and prohibited what Allah had provided for them, inventing untruth about Allah. They have gone astray and were not [rightly] guided

Saheeh International

They are losers who besottedly have slain their children without knowledge, and have forbidden that which Allah bestowed upon them, inventing a lie against Allah. They indeed have gone astray and are not guided
