Qurʾān Ibn Rajab's Fifty Riyāḍ al-Ṣāliḥīn al-Adab al-Mufrad al-Luʾluʾ wa-al-Marjān Bukhārī Muslim Abū Dāwūd Tirmidhī Nasāʾī Ibn Mājah Dārimī Aḥmad Mālik Ḥākim Ibn Ḥibbān Bazzār Ibn Khuzaymah Ṭabarānī Nasāʾī's Kubrá Bayhaqī Aḥmad's Zuhd Suyūṭī
quran:26:137 –

This is not but the custom of the former peoples,

This, that you threaten us with, is merely the fabrication of the ancients, that is, their inventions and lies (a variant reading ˹for khalq, ‘fabrication’˺ is khuluq, ‘ethos’, in other words, this denial of resurrection to which we adhere is merely ‘the ethos of the ancients’, in other words, their nature and wont);

القرآن:٢٦:١٣٧ –

إِنْ هَٰذَا إِلَّا خُلُقُ الْأَوَّلِينَ

{إن} ما {هذا} الذي خوفنا به {إلا خَلْق الأولين} اختلافهم وكذبهم وفي قراءة بضم الخاء واللام أي ما هذا الذي نحن عليه من إنكار للبعث إلا خلق الأولين أي طبيعتهم وعادتهم.
