Al-Hajj 22:11 ومن الناس من يعبد الله على حرف فان اصابه خير اطمان به وان اصابته فتنة انقلب على وجهه خسر الدنيا والاخرة ذالك هو الخسران المبين ١١
وَمِنَ
ٱلنَّاسِ
مَن
يَعۡبُدُ
ٱللَّهَ
عَلَىٰ
حَرۡفٖۖ
فَإِنۡ
أَصَابَهُۥ
خَيۡرٌ
ٱطۡمَأَنَّ
بِهِۦۖ
وَإِنۡ
أَصَابَتۡهُ
فِتۡنَةٌ
ٱنقَلَبَ
عَلَىٰ
وَجۡهِهِۦ
خَسِرَ
ٱلدُّنۡيَا
وَٱلۡأٓخِرَةَۚ
ذَٰلِكَ
هُوَ
ٱلۡخُسۡرَانُ
ٱلۡمُبِينُ
