They have purchased with the signs of God the Qur’ān a small price of this world that is they have refrained from following them in favour of passions and whims and have barred people from His way His religion. Truly evil is that deed of theirs which they are wont to do.
- 9:99
اشْتَرَوْا بِآيَاتِ اللَّهِ ثَمَنًا قَلِيلًا فَصَدُّوا عَنْ سَبِيلِهِ ۚ إِنَّهُمْ سَاءَ مَا كَانُوا يَعْمَلُونَ
They barter away the words of God for a petty price, and obstruct (others) from His path. How evil indeed are the things they do!
