78. Cursed were those who committed infidelity from among the Children of Israel through the tongue of Dawood and Isa [Jesus], son of Mariam [227]. This was due to their disobedience and transgression [228].

Surah Name : Al-Maidah   Surah Number : 5   Ayat Number: 78

Ayah 68

قُلۡ يَـٰٓأَهۡلَ ٱلۡكِتَٰبِ لَسۡتُمۡ عَلَىٰ شَيۡءٍ حَتَّىٰ تُقِيمُواْ ٱلتَّوۡرَىٰةَ وَٱلۡإِنجِيلَ وَمَآ أُنزِلَ إِلَيۡكُم مِّن رَّبِّكُمۡۗ وَلَيَزِيدَنَّ كَثِيرٗا مِّنۡهُم مَّآ أُنزِلَ إِلَيۡكَ مِن رَّبِّكَ طُغۡيَٰنٗا وَكُفۡرٗاۖ فَلَا تَأۡسَ عَلَى ٱلۡقَوۡمِ ٱلۡكَٰفِرِينَ

68. Say: "O People of the Book! You are not on anything until you establish the Taurat and the Injeel and that which has been revealed to you from your Lord [204]. And indeed, what has been revealed to you from your Lord [205] will surely increase many of them in wickedness and disbelief [206]. So do not grieve over the disbelieving people [207]."

Surah Name : Al-Maidah   Surah Number : 5   Ayat Number: 68

Ayah 64

وَقَالَتِ ٱلۡيَهُودُ يَدُ ٱللَّهِ مَغۡلُولَةٌۚ غُلَّتۡ أَيۡدِيهِمۡ وَلُعِنُواْ بِمَا قَالُواْۘ بَلۡ يَدَاهُ مَبۡسُوطَتَانِ يُنفِقُ كَيۡفَ يَشَآءُۚ وَلَيَزِيدَنَّ كَثِيرٗا مِّنۡهُم مَّآ أُنزِلَ إِلَيۡكَ مِن رَّبِّكَ طُغۡيَٰنٗا وَكُفۡرٗاۚ وَأَلۡقَيۡنَا بَيۡنَهُمُ ٱلۡعَدَٰوَةَ وَٱلۡبَغۡضَآءَ إِلَىٰ يَوۡمِ ٱلۡقِيَٰمَةِۚ كُلَّمَآ أَوۡقَدُواْ نَارٗا لِّلۡحَرۡبِ أَطۡفَأَهَا ٱللَّهُۚ وَيَسۡعَوۡنَ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ فَسَادٗاۚ وَٱللَّهُ لَا يُحِبُّ ٱلۡمُفۡسِدِينَ

64. And the Yahud have said, "The Hand of Allah is tied up" [189]. Their own hands are tied up [190], and upon them is the curse of Allah for what they say. Rather, His Hands are wide open; He spends as He wills [191]. And what has been revealed to you from your Lord will only increase many of them in wickedness and disbelief [192]. And We have cast enmity and hatred among them until the Day of Resurrection [193]. Whenever they kindle the fire of war, Allah extinguishes it [194]. They strive to spread corruption in the land, and Allah does not love the corruptors.

Ayah 12

۞وَلَقَدۡ أَخَذَ ٱللَّهُ مِيثَٰقَ بَنِيٓ إِسۡرَـٰٓءِيلَ وَبَعَثۡنَا مِنۡهُمُ ٱثۡنَيۡ عَشَرَ نَقِيبٗاۖ وَقَالَ ٱللَّهُ إِنِّي مَعَكُمۡۖ لَئِنۡ أَقَمۡتُمُ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ وَءَاتَيۡتُمُ ٱلزَّكَوٰةَ وَءَامَنتُم بِرُسُلِي وَعَزَّرۡتُمُوهُمۡ وَأَقۡرَضۡتُمُ ٱللَّهَ قَرۡضًا حَسَنٗا لَّأُكَفِّرَنَّ عَنكُمۡ سَيِّـَٔاتِكُمۡ وَلَأُدۡخِلَنَّكُمۡ جَنَّـٰتٖ تَجۡرِي مِن تَحۡتِهَا ٱلۡأَنۡهَٰرُۚ فَمَن كَفَرَ بَعۡدَ ذَٰلِكَ مِنكُمۡ فَقَدۡ ضَلَّ سَوَآءَ ٱلسَّبِيلِ

12. And surely Allah took a covenant from the Children of Israel [54], and We raised among them twelve chiefs [55]. And Allah said: "Indeed, I am with you. If you establish Prayer [56], pay Zakat [poor-due] and believe in My Messengers and pay them respect [57], and lend to Allah a loan [58], then surely, I will acquit you of your sins [59], and shall surely cause you to enter into the Gardens [60] beneath which flow rivers. Then after that whosoever of you commit infidelity, has certainly strayed from the right path [61].

17. The polytheists have no right to visit [36] the Mosque of Allah, bearing witness [37] to their infidelity against themselves. Their entire deeds are destroyed [38], and they shall remain in the Fire of Hell forever.

Ayah 23

يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ لَا تَتَّخِذُوٓاْ ءَابَآءَكُمۡ وَإِخۡوَٰنَكُمۡ أَوۡلِيَآءَ إِنِ ٱسۡتَحَبُّواْ ٱلۡكُفۡرَ عَلَى ٱلۡإِيمَٰنِۚ وَمَن يَتَوَلَّهُم مِّنكُمۡ فَأُوْلَـٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلظَّـٰلِمُونَ,

Ayah 37

إِنَّمَا ٱلنَّسِيٓءُ زِيَادَةٞ فِي ٱلۡكُفۡرِۖ يُضَلُّ بِهِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ يُحِلُّونَهُۥ عَامٗا وَيُحَرِّمُونَهُۥ عَامٗا لِّيُوَاطِـُٔواْ عِدَّةَ مَا حَرَّمَ ٱللَّهُ فَيُحِلُّواْ مَا حَرَّمَ ٱللَّهُۚ زُيِّنَ لَهُمۡ سُوٓءُ أَعۡمَٰلِهِمۡۗ وَٱللَّهُ لَا يَهۡدِي ٱلۡقَوۡمَ ٱلۡكَٰفِرِينَ,

37. Surely, their postponement of the sacred months is nothing but an increase in disbelief [96], by which those who disbelieve are led astray [97]. They make it lawful one year [98], and forbid it in another [99], to adjust the count of the months that Allah has made sacred [100], thus permitting what Allah has forbidden. Their evil deeds have been made attractive [101] to them. And Allah does not guide the disbelieving people [102].

Ayah 74

يَحۡلِفُونَ بِٱللَّهِ مَا قَالُواْ وَلَقَدۡ قَالُواْ كَلِمَةَ ٱلۡكُفۡرِ وَكَفَرُواْ بَعۡدَ إِسۡلَٰمِهِمۡ وَهَمُّواْ بِمَا لَمۡ يَنَالُواْۚ وَمَا نَقَمُوٓاْ إِلَّآ أَنۡ أَغۡنَىٰهُمُ ٱللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُۥ مِن فَضۡلِهِۦۚ فَإِن يَتُوبُواْ يَكُ خَيۡرٗا لَّهُمۡۖ وَإِن يَتَوَلَّوۡاْ يُعَذِّبۡهُمُ ٱللَّهُ عَذَابًا أَلِيمٗا فِي ٱلدُّنۡيَا وَٱلۡأٓخِرَةِۚ وَمَا لَهُمۡ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ مِن وَلِيّٖ وَلَا نَصِيرٖ,

74. They swear by Allah that they did not say it, but certainly they uttered the words of infidelity [207], and became disbelievers after accepting Islam. And they had desired that which they could not get [208], and what they felt bad about was that Allah and His Messenger had enriched [209] them with bounties. If they repent, it is good for them, and if they turn away, then Allah will punish them with a severe punishment in the world and in the Hereafter. And on the earth, they shall have neither any supporter nor any helper [210].

97. The desert-dwelling Arabs are more intense [267] in disbelief and hypocrisy, and more deserving to remain ignorant [268] of the limits of what Allah has revealed to His Messenger. And Allah is All-Knowing, Wise.

وَٱلَّذِينَ ٱتَّخَذُواْ مَسۡجِدٗا ضِرَارٗا وَكُفۡرٗا وَتَفۡرِيقَۢا بَيۡنَ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ وَإِرۡصَادٗا لِّمَنۡ حَارَبَ ٱللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُۥ مِن قَبۡلُۚ وَلَيَحۡلِفُنَّ إِنۡ أَرَدۡنَآ إِلَّا ٱلۡحُسۡنَىٰۖ وَٱللَّهُ يَشۡهَدُ إِنَّهُمۡ لَكَٰذِبُونَ,

107. And those who have built a mosque to cause harm and infidelity [295], and to create division [296] among the believers, and as a trap for whoever has fought against Allah and His Messenger from before. And they will certainly swear that we intended nothing but good. And Allah bears witness that they are indeed liars [298].

4. To Him is your return, all of you. This is the true promise [12] of Allah. Indeed, He initiates creation and then repeats it, so that He may justly reward those who believe [13] and do righteous deeds [14]. But for those who disbelieve, they will have a boiling drink [15] and a painful punishment [16] because they disbelieved.

34. And on the Day when the infidels shall be exposed before the fire, it will be said to them: "Is this not the truth[94] They will say: "Why not, it is so by our Lord". It will be said to them: Taste then the punishment as the award of your infidelity [95]".

هُوَ ٱلَّذِي جَعَلَكُمۡ خَلَـٰٓئِفَ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِۚ فَمَن كَفَرَ فَعَلَيۡهِ كُفۡرُهُۥۖ وَلَا يَزِيدُ ٱلۡكَٰفِرِينَ كُفۡرُهُمۡ عِندَ رَبِّهِمۡ إِلَّا مَقۡتٗاۖ وَلَا يَزِيدُ ٱلۡكَٰفِرِينَ كُفۡرُهُمۡ إِلَّا خَسَارٗا

39.He it is Who made you successors of the earth . Therefore whoever commits infidelity will suffer for his infidelity [112] And the infidelity of the infidels will not increase with their Lord, except disgust [113]. And the infidelity of the infidels increases nothing except lose (114).
