limits,- then Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
16:116
But say not - for any false thing that your tongues may put forth,- "This is lawful, and this is forbidden," so as to ascribe
false things to Allah. For those who ascribe false things to Allah, will never prosper.
16:117
(In such falsehood) is but a paltry profit; but they will have a most grievous Penalty.
16:118
To the Jews We prohibited such things as We have mentioned to thee before: We did them no wrong, but they were
used to doing wrong to themselves.
16:119
But verily thy Lord,- to those who do wrong in ignorance, but who thereafter repent and make amends,- thy Lord,
after all this, is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
16:120
Abraham was indeed a model, devoutly obedient to Allah, (and) true in Faith, and he joined not gods with Allah:
16:121
He showed his gratitude for the favours of Allah, who chose him, and guided him to a Straight Way.
16:122
And We gave him Good in this world, and he will be, in the Hereafter, in the ranks of the Righteous.
16:123
So We have taught thee the inspired (Message), "Follow the ways of Abraham the True in Faith, and he joined not
gods with Allah."
