(In their ears) they fill half-true, worthless things, and most of them are liars
Surah Ash-Shuara, Verse 223
وَٱلشُّعَرَآءُ يَتَّبِعُهُمُ ٱلۡغَاوُۥنَ
As for the poets— Those astray (in evil) who follow them
Surah Ash-Shuara, Verse 224
أَلَمۡ تَرَ أَنَّهُمۡ فِي كُلِّ وَادٖ يَهِيمُونَ
Do you not see that they (anxiously) speak about every subject (of lies and sin) in their poetry
Surah Ash-Shuara, Verse 225
وَأَنَّهُمۡ يَقُولُونَ مَا لَا يَفۡعَلُونَ
And that they say what they do not do
Surah Ash-Shuara, Verse 226
إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَعَمِلُواْ ٱلصَّـٰلِحَٰتِ وَذَكَرُواْ ٱللَّهَ كَثِيرٗا وَٱنتَصَرُواْ مِنۢ بَعۡدِ مَا ظُلِمُواْۗ وَسَيَعۡلَمُ ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوٓاْ أَيَّ مُنقَلَبٖ يَنقَلِبُونَ
Except those who believe and work rightfully, and do much in the remembering of Allah, and (act to) defend themselves only after they are wrongly attacked. And soon will the unjust attackers know what sudden changes their actions will take
Surah Ash-Shuara, Verse 227
