An-Nahl 16:36 ولقد بعثنا في كل امة رسولا ان اعبدوا الله واجتنبوا الطاغوت فمنهم من هدى الله ومنهم من حقت عليه الضلالة فسيروا في الارض فانظروا كيف كان عاقبة المكذبين ٣٦
وَلَقَدۡ
بَعَثۡنَا
فِي
كُلِّ
أُمَّةٖ
رَّسُولًا
أَنِ
ٱعۡبُدُواْ
ٱللَّهَ
وَٱجۡتَنِبُواْ
ٱلطَّٰغُوتَۖ
فَمِنۡهُم
مَّنۡ
هَدَى
ٱللَّهُ
وَمِنۡهُم
مَّنۡ
حَقَّتۡ
عَلَيۡهِ
ٱلضَّلَٰلَةُۚ
فَسِيرُواْ
فِي
ٱلۡأَرۡضِ
فَٱنظُرُواْ
كَيۡفَ
كَانَ
عَٰقِبَةُ
ٱلۡمُكَذِّبِينَ
٣٦
