Sura 9
Aya 17
17
ما كانَ لِلمُشرِكينَ أَن يَعمُروا مَساجِدَ اللَّهِ شاهِدينَ عَلىٰ أَنفُسِهِم بِالكُفرِ ۚ أُولٰئِكَ حَبِطَت أَعمالُهُم وَفِي النّارِ هُم خالِدونَ

A. J. Arberry

It is not for the idolaters to inhabit God's places of worship, witnessing against themselves unbelief; those -- their works have failed them, and in the Fire they shall dwell forever.
