Read in Context

Chapter 2, Page 3, Juz 1

8. And among men there are some who say, “We believe in Allah and in the Last Day”, yet they are not believers. 9. They try to deceive Allah and those who believe, while they are not deceiving anyone except themselves, although they are unaware of it. 10. In their hearts there is a malady, so Allah has made them grow in their malady; and for them there is a grievous punishment, because they have been lying. 11. When it is said to them, “Do not spread disorder on the earth”, they say, “We are but reformers.” 12. Beware, it is, in fact, they who spread disorder, but they do not appreciate. 13. And when it is said to them, “Believe as people have believed,” they say, “Shall we believe as the fools have believed?” Beware, it is, in fact, they who are the fools, but they do not know. 14. When they meet those who believe, they say, “We have entered Faith;” but when they are alone with their satans, they say, “Indeed, we are with you; we were only mocking.” 15. It is Allah who mocks at them, and lets them go on wandering blindly in their rebellion. 16. These are the people who have bought error at the price of guidance; so their trade has brought no gain, nor have they reached the right Path.
