Those are the ones who have purchased error [in exchange] for guidance, so their transaction has brought no profit, nor were they guided.

And [mention, O Muhammad], when your Lord said to the angels, "Indeed, I will make upon the earth a successive authority." They said, "Will You place upon it one who causes corruption therein and sheds blood, while we declare Your praise and sanctify You?" Allah said, "Indeed, I know that which you do not know."

So if they believe in the same as you believe in, then they have been [rightly] guided; but if they turn away, they are only in dissension, and Allah will be sufficient for you against them. And He is the Hearing, the Knowing.

Those are the ones who have exchanged guidance for error and forgiveness for punishment. How patient they are in pursuit of the Fire!

It is He who forms you in the wombs however He wills. There is no deity except Him, the Exalted in Might, the Wise.

But if they turn away, then indeed - Allah is Knowing of the corrupters.
