[2:86] Those are the ones who have purchased the life of this world at the price of the Hereafter - for them the punishment shall not be lightened, neither shall they be helped.
Those who have preferred anything over Him have lost in this world and the Hereafter. As they have said:
People turned away
from us
without cause
or sense.
If they have no need
of us,
we have even less need
of them.
