Say ‘Truly I have been forbidden to worship those whom you call upon those whom you worship besides God.’ Say ‘I shall not follow your whims by worshipping them for then if I did follow them verily I would have gone astray and I would not be of the rightly guided’.
- 6:5656
قُلْ إِنِّي نُهِيتُ أَنْ أَعْبُدَ الَّذِينَ تَدْعُونَ مِنْ دُونِ اللَّهِ ۚ قُلْ لَا أَتَّبِعُ أَهْوَاءَكُمْ ۙ قَدْ ضَلَلْتُ إِذًا وَمَا أَنَا مِنَ الْمُهْتَدِينَ
Tell them: "I am forbidden to worship those you invoke apart from God." And say: "I will not follow your wishes. If I do, I shall be lost and not be one of those who follow the right path."
