Quran verses about Falsehood (batil)

الباطل

23 verses in 18 surahs · 12 subtopics

Falsehood never endures, these verses affirm, and worshipping anything other than Allah is itself falsehood. They state that the universe was not created in vain, forbid consuming people’s wealth unjustly and announce loss for the followers of falsehood, with the parable of the foam that vanishes while what benefits people remains.

Al-’Ankabut29:48

وَمَا كُنتَ تَتْلُوا۟ مِن قَبْلِهِۦ مِن كِتَٰبٍ وَلَا تَخُطُّهُۥ بِيَمِينِكَ إِذًا لَّٱرْتَابَ ٱلْمُبْطِلُونَ ۝٤٨

And you did not recite before it any scripture, nor did you inscribe one with your right hand. Then [i.e., otherwise] the falsifiers would have had [cause for] doubt.
