Quran verses about Sin

الإثم والخطيئة

58 verses in 19 surahs · 9 subtopics

Sin is personal: it is not inherited and no one bears another’s burden. These verses show how sins corrupt hearts, bring trials and punishment and lead nations to ruin; they mention the sin that is not forgiven and cite wrongs such as blaming an innocent person or harming believers, while no blame falls on one who errs unintentionally.

Verses gathered from a topical index of the Quran, in Mushaf order; every verse is quoted in full.

Al-An’am6:50

قُل لَّآ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ عِندِى خَزَآئِنُ ٱللَّهِ وَلَآ أَعْلَمُ ٱلْغَيْبَ وَلَآ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ إِنِّى مَلَكٌ إِنْ أَتَّبِعُ إِلَّا مَا يُوحَىٰٓ إِلَىَّ قُلْ هَلْ يَسْتَوِى ٱلْأَعْمَىٰ وَٱلْبَصِيرُ أَفَلَا تَتَفَكَّرُونَ ۝٥٠

Say, [O Muḥammad], "I do not tell you that I have the depositories [containing the provision] of Allāh or that I know the unseen, nor do I tell you that I am an angel. I only follow what is revealed to me." Say, "Is the blind equivalent to the seeing? Then will you not give thought?"

Al-An’am6:129

وَكَذَٰلِكَ نُوَلِّى بَعْضَ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ بَعْضًۢا بِمَا كَانُوا۟ يَكْسِبُونَ ۝١٢٩

And thus will We make some of the wrongdoers allies of others for what they used to earn.
