145
وَلَئِن أَتَيتَ الَّذينَ أوتُوا الكِتابَ بِكُلِّ آيَةٍ ما تَبِعوا قِبلَتَكَ ۚ وَما أَنتَ بِتابِعٍ قِبلَتَهُم ۚ وَما بَعضُهُم بِتابِعٍ قِبلَةَ بَعضٍ ۚ وَلَئِنِ اتَّبَعتَ أَهواءَهُم مِن بَعدِ ما جاءَكَ مِنَ العِلمِ ۙ إِنَّكَ إِذًا لَمِنَ الظّالِمينَ

(Irfan-ul-Quran)

And do they not follow each other’s Qibla among themselves. (Said for the education of the Umma [the Community]:) ‘And if, (supposing the impossible,) you (also) follow their desires after the knowledge has come to you, then you will surely be of those who wrong (their own souls).’
