quran:43:22 –

Rather, they say, "Indeed, we found our fathers upon a religion, and we are in their footsteps ˹rightly˺ guided."  

Nay, but they say, ‘Lo! we found our fathers following a ˹certain˺ creed and we are indeed, proceeding, in their footsteps to be guided’, by them, for they used to worship other than God.
القرآن:٤٣:٢٢ –

بَلْ قَالُوا إِنَّا وَجَدْنَا آبَاءَنَا عَلَىٰ أُمَّةٍ وَإِنَّا عَلَىٰ آثَارِهِمْ مُهْتَدُونَ  

{بل قالوا إنا وجدنا آباءنا على أمة} ملة {وإنا} {على آثارهم مهتدون} بهم وكانوا يعبدون غير الله.
