Do not revile those whom they call upon besides God namely the idols lest they then revile God out of spite out of aggression and wrongfully through ignorance that is through their ignorance of God. So in the same way that We have adorned for these that which they practise We have adorned for every community their good and evil deeds and they commit them; then to their Lord they shall return in the Hereafter and He will tell them what they used to do and requite them for it.
- 6:108108
وَلَا تَسُبُّوا الَّذِينَ يَدْعُونَ مِنْ دُونِ اللَّهِ فَيَسُبُّوا اللَّهَ عَدْوًا بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍ ۗ كَذَٰلِكَ زَيَّنَّا لِكُلِّ أُمَّةٍ عَمَلَهُمْ ثُمَّ إِلَىٰ رَبِّهِمْ مَرْجِعُهُمْ فَيُنَبِّئُهُمْ بِمَا كَانُوا يَعْمَلُونَ
Do not revile those who invoke others apart from God, lest they begin to revile God out of malice and ignorance. We have made attractive their deeds to every people. They have to go back to their Lord, when He will tell them what they used to do.
