الفسق

40 verses in 15 surahs · 10 subtopics

Departing from Allah’s command: such is the meaning of sinfulness (fisq) in these verses. The Quran applies the term to disbelief and hypocrisy, notes that the defiantly disobedient are many, that they are deprived of Allah’s pleasure and guidance, and that their end is evil. The verses warn against it during Hajj, reject the testimony of the sinful, and show that fisq heralds the ruin of nations.
