If you have doubts about the revelation We have sent down to Our servant, then produce a single sura like it- enlist whatever supporters you have other than God- if you truly [think you can]. - 2:107 Al-Baqarah Same wording
أَلَمْتَعْلَمْأَنَّٱللَّهَلَهُۥمُلْكُٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِوَٱلْأَرْضِ ۗوَمَالَكُممِّندُونِٱللَّهِمِنوَلِىٍّۢوَلَانَصِيرٍ
Do you not know that control of the heavens and the earth belongs to Him? You [believers] have no protector or helper but God. - 2:165 Al-Baqarah Same wording
وَمِنَٱلنَّاسِمَنيَتَّخِذُمِندُونِٱللَّهِأَندَادًۭايُحِبُّونَهُمْكَحُبِّٱللَّهِ ۖوَٱلَّذِينَءَامَنُوٓا۟أَشَدُّحُبًّۭالِّلَّهِ ۗوَلَوْيَرَىٱلَّذِينَظَلَمُوٓا۟إِذْيَرَوْنَٱلْعَذَابَأَنَّٱلْقُوَّةَلِلَّهِجَمِيعًۭاوَأَنَّٱللَّهَشَدِيدُٱلْعَذَابِ
Even so, there are some who choose to worship others besides God as rivals to Him, loving them with the love due to God, but the believers have greater love for God. If only the idolaters could see- as they will see when they face the torment- that all power belongs to God, and that God punishes severely. - 3:64 Ali 'Imran Same wording
قُلْيَـٰٓأَهْلَٱلْكِتَـٰبِتَعَالَوْا۟إِلَىٰكَلِمَةٍۢسَوَآءٍۭبَيْنَنَاوَبَيْنَكُمْأَلَّانَعْبُدَإِلَّاٱللَّهَوَلَانُشْرِكَبِهِۦشَيْـًۭٔاوَلَايَتَّخِذَبَعْضُنَابَعْضًاأَرْبَابًۭامِّندُونِٱللَّهِ ۚفَإِنتَوَلَّوْا۟فَقُولُوا۟ٱشْهَدُوا۟بِأَنَّامُسْلِمُونَ
Say, ‘People of the Book, let us arrive at a statement that is common to us all: we worship God alone, we ascribe no partner to Him, and none of us takes others beside God as lords.’ If they turn away, say, ‘Witness our devotion to Him.’ - 3:79 Ali 'Imran Same wording
مَاكَانَلِبَشَرٍأَنيُؤْتِيَهُٱللَّهُٱلْكِتَـٰبَوَٱلْحُكْمَوَٱلنُّبُوَّةَثُمَّيَقُولَلِلنَّاسِكُونُوا۟عِبَادًۭالِّىمِندُونِٱللَّهِوَلَـٰكِنكُونُوا۟رَبَّـٰنِيِّـۧنَبِمَاكُنتُمْتُعَلِّمُونَٱلْكِتَـٰبَوَبِمَاكُنتُمْتَدْرُسُونَ
No person to whom God had given the Scripture, wisdom, and prophethood would ever say to people, ‘Be my servants, not God’s.’ [He would say], ‘You should be devoted to God because you have taught the Scripture and studied it closely.’ - 4:119 An-Nisa Same wording
وَلَأُضِلَّنَّهُمْوَلَأُمَنِّيَنَّهُمْوَلَـَٔامُرَنَّهُمْفَلَيُبَتِّكُنَّءَاذَانَٱلْأَنْعَـٰمِوَلَـَٔامُرَنَّهُمْفَلَيُغَيِّرُنَّخَلْقَٱللَّهِ ۚوَمَنيَتَّخِذِٱلشَّيْطَـٰنَوَلِيًّۭامِّندُونِٱللَّهِفَقَدْخَسِرَخُسْرَانًۭامُّبِينًۭا
I will mislead them and incite vain desires in them; I will command them to slit the ears of cattle; I will command them to tamper with God’s creation.’ Whoever chooses Satan as a patron instead of God is utterly ruined: - 4:123 An-Nisa Same wording
لَّيْسَبِأَمَانِيِّكُمْوَلَآأَمَانِىِّأَهْلِٱلْكِتَـٰبِ ۗمَنيَعْمَلْسُوٓءًۭايُجْزَبِهِۦوَلَايَجِدْلَهُۥمِندُونِٱللَّهِوَلِيًّۭاوَلَانَصِيرًۭا
It will not be according to your hopes or those of the People of the Book: anyone who does wrong will be requited for it and will find no one to protect or help him against God; - 4:173 An-Nisa Same wording
فَأَمَّاٱلَّذِينَءَامَنُوا۟وَعَمِلُوا۟ٱلصَّـٰلِحَـٰتِفَيُوَفِّيهِمْأُجُورَهُمْوَيَزِيدُهُممِّنفَضْلِهِۦ ۖوَأَمَّاٱلَّذِينَٱسْتَنكَفُوا۟وَٱسْتَكْبَرُوا۟فَيُعَذِّبُهُمْعَذَابًاأَلِيمًۭاوَلَايَجِدُونَلَهُممِّندُونِٱللَّهِوَلِيًّۭاوَلَانَصِيرًۭا
to those who believe and do good works He will give due rewards and more of His bounty; to those who are disdainful and arrogant He will give an agonizing torment, and they will find no one besides God to protect or help them. - 5:76 Al-Ma'idah Same wording
قُلْأَتَعْبُدُونَمِندُونِٱللَّهِمَالَايَمْلِكُلَكُمْضَرًّۭاوَلَانَفْعًۭا ۚوَٱللَّهُهُوَٱلسَّمِيعُٱلْعَلِيمُ

When God says, ‘Jesus, son of Mary, did you say to people, “Take me and my mother as two gods alongside God”?’ he will say, ‘May You be exalted! I would never say what I had no right to say- if I had said such a thing You would have known it: You know all that is within me, though I do not know what is within You, You alone have full knowledge of things unseen- - 6:56 Al-An'am Same wording
قُلْإِنِّىنُهِيتُأَنْأَعْبُدَٱلَّذِينَتَدْعُونَمِندُونِٱللَّهِ ۚقُللَّآأَتَّبِعُأَهْوَآءَكُمْ ۙقَدْضَلَلْتُإِذًۭاوَمَآأَنَا۠مِنَٱلْمُهْتَدِينَ
Say, ‘I am forbidden to worship those you call on other than God.’ Say, ‘I will not follow your vain desires, for if I did, I would stray from the path and cease to be rightly guided.’ - 6:70 Al-An'am Same wording
وَذَرِٱلَّذِينَٱتَّخَذُوا۟دِينَهُمْلَعِبًۭاوَلَهْوًۭاوَغَرَّتْهُمُٱلْحَيَوٰةُٱلدُّنْيَا ۚوَذَكِّرْبِهِۦٓأَنتُبْسَلَنَفْسٌۢبِمَاكَسَبَتْلَيْسَلَهَامِندُونِٱللَّهِوَلِىٌّۭوَلَاشَفِيعٌۭوَإِنتَعْدِلْكُلَّعَدْلٍۢلَّايُؤْخَذْمِنْهَآ ۗأُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَٱلَّذِينَأُبْسِلُوا۟بِمَاكَسَبُوا۟ ۖلَهُمْشَرَابٌۭمِّنْحَمِيمٍۢوَعَذَابٌأَلِيمٌۢبِمَاكَانُوا۟يَكْفُرُونَ
Leave to themselves those who take their religion for a mere game and distraction and are deceived by the life of this world, but continue to remind them with the [Quran], lest any soul be damned by what it has done- it will have no one to protect it from God and no one to intercede; whatever ransom it may offer will not be accepted. Such are those who are damned by their own actions: they will have boil-ing water to drink and a painful punishment, because they used to defy [God]. - 6:71 Al-An'am Same wording
قُلْأَنَدْعُوا۟مِندُونِٱللَّهِمَالَايَنفَعُنَاوَلَايَضُرُّنَاوَنُرَدُّعَلَىٰٓأَعْقَابِنَابَعْدَإِذْهَدَىٰنَاٱللَّهُكَٱلَّذِىٱسْتَهْوَتْهُٱلشَّيَـٰطِينُفِىٱلْأَرْضِحَيْرَانَلَهُۥٓأَصْحَـٰبٌۭيَدْعُونَهُۥٓإِلَىٱلْهُدَىٱئْتِنَا ۗقُلْإِنَّهُدَىٱللَّهِهُوَٱلْهُدَىٰ ۖوَأُمِرْنَالِنُسْلِمَلِرَبِّٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ
Say, ‘Instead of God, are we to call on what neither profits nor harms us? [Are we to] turn on our heels after God has guided us, like someone bewildered, having been tempted by devils into a desert ravine, though his companions call him to guidance [saying], “Come to us”?’ Say, ‘God’s guidance is the true guidance. We are commanded to devote ourselves to the Lord of the Worlds, - 6:108 Al-An'am Same wording
وَلَاتَسُبُّوا۟ٱلَّذِينَيَدْعُونَمِندُونِٱللَّهِفَيَسُبُّوا۟ٱللَّهَعَدْوًۢابِغَيْرِعِلْمٍۢ ۗكَذَٰلِكَزَيَّنَّالِكُلِّأُمَّةٍعَمَلَهُمْثُمَّإِلَىٰرَبِّهِممَّرْجِعُهُمْفَيُنَبِّئُهُمبِمَاكَانُوا۟يَعْمَلُونَ
[Believers], do not revile those they call on beside God in case they, in their hostility and ignorance, revile God. To each community We make their own actions seem alluring, but in the end they will return to their Lord and He will inform them of all they did. - 7:30 Al-A'raf Same wording
فَرِيقًاهَدَىٰوَفَرِيقًاحَقَّعَلَيْهِمُٱلضَّلَـٰلَةُ ۗإِنَّهُمُٱتَّخَذُوا۟ٱلشَّيَـٰطِينَأَوْلِيَآءَمِندُونِٱللَّهِوَيَحْسَبُونَأَنَّهُممُّهْتَدُونَ
Some He has guided and some are doomed to stray: they have taken evil ones rather than God as their masters, thinking that they are rightly guided. - 7:37 Al-A'raf Same wording
فَمَنْأَظْلَمُمِمَّنِٱفْتَرَىٰعَلَىٱللَّهِكَذِبًاأَوْكَذَّبَبِـَٔايَـٰتِهِۦٓ ۚأُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَيَنَالُهُمْنَصِيبُهُممِّنَٱلْكِتَـٰبِ ۖحَتَّىٰٓإِذَاجَآءَتْهُمْرُسُلُنَايَتَوَفَّوْنَهُمْقَالُوٓا۟أَيْنَمَاكُنتُمْتَدْعُونَمِندُونِٱللَّهِ ۖقَالُوا۟ضَلُّوا۟عَنَّاوَشَهِدُوا۟عَلَىٰٓأَنفُسِهِمْأَنَّهُمْكَانُوا۟كَـٰفِرِينَ
Who is more wrong than the person who invents lies against God or rejects His revelations? Such people will have their preordained share [in this world], but then, when Our angels arrive to take them back, saying, ‘Where are those you used to call on beside God?’ they will say, ‘They have deserted us.’ They will confess that they were disbelievers and - 7:194 Al-A'raf Same wording
إِنَّٱلَّذِينَتَدْعُونَمِندُونِٱللَّهِعِبَادٌأَمْثَالُكُمْ ۖفَٱدْعُوهُمْفَلْيَسْتَجِيبُوا۟لَكُمْإِنكُنتُمْصَـٰدِقِينَ
Those you [idolaters] call upon instead of God are created beings like you. Call upon them, then, and let them respond to you if what you say is true. - 9:16 At-Tawbah Same wording

Do you think that you will be left untested without God identifying which of you will strive for His cause and take no supporters apart from God, His Messenger, and other believers? God is fully aware of all your actions. - 9:31 At-Tawbah Same wording
ٱتَّخَذُوٓا۟أَحْبَارَهُمْوَرُهْبَـٰنَهُمْأَرْبَابًۭامِّندُونِٱللَّهِوَٱلْمَسِيحَٱبْنَمَرْيَمَوَمَآأُمِرُوٓا۟إِلَّالِيَعْبُدُوٓا۟إِلَـٰهًۭاوَٰحِدًۭا ۖلَّآإِلَـٰهَإِلَّاهُوَ ۚسُبْحَـٰنَهُۥعَمَّايُشْرِكُونَ

إِنَّٱللَّهَلَهُۥمُلْكُٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِوَٱلْأَرْضِ ۖيُحْىِۦوَيُمِيتُ ۚوَمَالَكُممِّندُونِٱللَّهِمِنوَلِىٍّۢوَلَانَصِيرٍۢ

They worship alongside God things that can neither harm nor benefit them, and say, ‘These are our intercessors with God.’ Say, ‘Do you think you can tell God about something He knows not to exist in the heavens or earth? Glory be to Him! He is far above the partner-gods they associate with Him! - 10:37 Yunus Same wording
وَمَاكَانَهَـٰذَاٱلْقُرْءَانُأَنيُفْتَرَىٰمِندُونِٱللَّهِوَلَـٰكِنتَصْدِيقَٱلَّذِىبَيْنَيَدَيْهِوَتَفْصِيلَٱلْكِتَـٰبِلَارَيْبَفِيهِمِنرَّبِّٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ
Nor could this Quran have been devised by anyone other than God. It is a confirmation of what was revealed before it and an explanation of the Scripture- let there be no doubt about it- it is from the Lord of the Worlds. - 10:38 Yunus Same wording
أَمْيَقُولُونَٱفْتَرَىٰهُ ۖقُلْفَأْتُوا۟بِسُورَةٍۢمِّثْلِهِۦوَٱدْعُوا۟مَنِٱسْتَطَعْتُممِّندُونِٱللَّهِإِنكُنتُمْصَـٰدِقِينَ
Or do they say, ‘He has devised it’? Say, ‘Then produce a sura like it, and call on anyone you can beside God if you are telling the truth.’ - 10:66 Yunus Same wording
أَلَآإِنَّلِلَّهِمَنفِىٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِوَمَنفِىٱلْأَرْضِ ۗوَمَايَتَّبِعُٱلَّذِينَيَدْعُونَمِندُونِٱللَّهِشُرَكَآءَ ۚإِنيَتَّبِعُونَإِلَّاٱلظَّنَّوَإِنْهُمْإِلَّايَخْرُصُونَ
indeed, all who are in the heavens and on the earth belong to Him. Those who call upon others beside God are not really following partner-gods; they are only following assumptions and telling lies. - 10:104 Yunus Same wording
قُلْيَـٰٓأَيُّهَاٱلنَّاسُإِنكُنتُمْفِىشَكٍّۢمِّندِينِىفَلَآأَعْبُدُٱلَّذِينَتَعْبُدُونَمِندُونِٱللَّهِوَلَـٰكِنْأَعْبُدُٱللَّهَٱلَّذِىيَتَوَفَّىٰكُمْ ۖوَأُمِرْتُأَنْأَكُونَمِنَٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ

do not pray to any other [god] that can neither benefit nor harm you: if you do, you will be one of the evildoers. - 11:13 Hud Same wording
أَمْيَقُولُونَٱفْتَرَىٰهُ ۖقُلْفَأْتُوا۟بِعَشْرِسُوَرٍۢمِّثْلِهِۦمُفْتَرَيَـٰتٍۢوَٱدْعُوا۟مَنِٱسْتَطَعْتُممِّندُونِٱللَّهِإِنكُنتُمْصَـٰدِقِينَ

We did not wrong them; they wronged themselves. Their gods, which they called on beside God, were no use to them when what your Lord had ordained came about; they only increased their ruin. - 11:113 Hud Same wording
وَلَاتَرْكَنُوٓا۟إِلَىٱلَّذِينَظَلَمُوا۟فَتَمَسَّكُمُٱلنَّارُوَمَالَكُممِّندُونِٱللَّهِمِنْأَوْلِيَآءَثُمَّلَاتُنصَرُونَ

Abraham said, ‘How can you worship what can neither benefit nor harm you, instead of God? - 21:67 Al-Anbya Same wording

People, here is an illustration, so listen carefully: those you call on beside God could not, even if they combined all their forces, create a fly, and if a fly took something away from them, they would not be able to retrieve it.

مَثَلُٱلَّذِينَٱتَّخَذُوا۟مِندُونِٱللَّهِأَوْلِيَآءَكَمَثَلِٱلْعَنكَبُوتِٱتَّخَذَتْبَيْتًۭا ۖوَإِنَّأَوْهَنَٱلْبُيُوتِلَبَيْتُٱلْعَنكَبُوتِ ۖلَوْكَانُوا۟يَعْلَمُونَ
