| 114. There is no good in many of their conferences except the conferences of such as enjoin charity, or goodness or the making of peace among men. And whoso does that, seeking the pleasure of ALLAH, WE shall soon bestow on him a great reward. 115. And whoso opposes the Messenger after guidance has become manifest to him, and follows a way other than that of the believers, WE shall let him pursue the way he is pursuing and shall cast him into Hell, and an evil destination it is. 116. ALLAH shall not forgive that anything be associated with HIM as partner, but HE will forgive what is short of that to whomsoever HE pleases. And whoso associates anything with ALLAH has indeed strayed far away. 117. They invoke besides HIM none but lifeless objects, and they invoke none but Satan the rebellious, 118. Whom ALLAH has cursed. He said, `I will assuredly take a fixed portion from THY servants; 119. `And assuredly I will lead them astray and assuredly I will arouse in them vain desires, and assuredly I will incite them and they will cut the ears of cattle; and assuredly I will incite them and they will alter ALLAH's creation.' And whoever takes Satan for a friend instead of ALLAH, he certainly suffers a manifest loss. 120. He holds out promises to them and excites vain desires in them, and Satan promises them nothing but vain things. 121. For such, their abode shall be Hell, and they shall find no way of escape from it. |
