He said, "Say: Allah is our protector and you have no protectors."

مَوَالِيَ protectors

An irregular 'broken' plural, where the word reshapes its inner vowels to mark 'more than one' instead of just tacking on an ending. It is the thing being denied by the 'la' before it, the predicate of the negative claim about the addressees. Such plurals are formed by a pattern change rather than a suffix.
