God’s Messenger of the Covenant*
26:214 You shall preach to the people who are closest to you. 26:215 And lower your wing for the believers who follow you. 26:216 If they disobey you, then say, “I disown what you do.” 26:217 And put your trust in the Almighty, Most Merciful. 26:218 Who sees you when you meditate during the night. 26:219 And your frequent prostrations. 26:220 He is the Hearer, the Omniscient. 26:221 Shall I inform you upon whom the devils descend? 26:222 They descend upon every guilty fabricator. 26:223 They pretend to listen, but most of them are liars. As for the poets, they are followed only by the strayers. Do you not see that their loyalty shifts according to the situation? And that they say what they do not do? Exempted are those who believe, lead a righteous life, commemorate GOD frequently, and stand up for their rights. Surely, the transgressors will find out what their ultimate destiny is.
