Surah An Nisaa Ayat 140
He has revealed to you in the Book that when you hear God’s revelations being rejected, or ridiculed, do not sit with them until they engage in some other subject. Otherwise, you would be like them. God will gather the hypocrites and the disbelievers, into Hell, altogether.
Surah An Nisaa Ayat 141
Those who lie in wait for you: if you attain victory from God, they say, “Were we not with you?” But if the disbelievers get a turn, they say, “Did we not side with you, and defend you from the believers?” God will judge between you on the Day of Resurrection; and God will give the disbelievers no means of overcoming the believers.
Surah An Nisaa Ayat 143
Wavering in between, neither with these, nor with those. Whomever God sends astray, you will never find for him a way.
Surah An Nisaa Ayat 144
O you who believe! Do not befriend disbelievers rather than believers. Do you want to give God a clear case against you?
