Al-Ma'idah 5:108 ذالك ادنى ان ياتوا بالشهادة على وجهها او يخافوا ان ترد ايمان بعد ايمانهم واتقوا الله واسمعوا والله لا يهدي القوم الفاسقين ١٠٨
ذَٰلِكَ
أَدۡنَىٰٓ
أَن
يَأۡتُواْ
بِٱلشَّهَٰدَةِ
عَلَىٰ
وَجۡهِهَآ
أَوۡ
يَخَافُوٓاْ
أَن
تُرَدَّ
أَيۡمَٰنُۢ
بَعۡدَ
أَيۡمَٰنِهِمۡۗ
وَٱتَّقُواْ
ٱللَّهَ
وَٱسۡمَعُواْۗ
وَٱللَّهُ
لَا
يَهۡدِي
ٱلۡقَوۡمَ
ٱلۡفَٰسِقِينَ
