O you who have believed, indeed, intoxicants, gambling, [sacrificing on] stone alters [to other than Allāh], and divining arrows are but defilement from the work of Satan, so avoid it that you may be successful.

ஈமான் கொண்டோரே! மதுபானமும், சூதாட்டமும், கற்சிலைகளை வழிபடுதலும், அம்புகள் எறிந்து குறி கேட்பதும், ஷைத்தானின் அருவருக்கத்தக்க செயல்களிலுள்ளவையாகும். ஆகவே நீங்கள் இவற்றைத் தவிர்த்துக் கொள்ளுங்கள் - அதனால் நீங்கள் வெற்றியடைவீர்கள்.

අහෝ දේවත්වය විශ්වාස කළවුනි! සුරාව සූදුව පිළිම වන්දනාව හා රිටි මඟින් කුසපත් ඇදීම ෂෙයිතාන්ගේ ක්‍රියාවෙන් වූ පිළිකුල් සහගත දෑ ය. එබැවින් නුඹලා ජයග්‍රහණය ලැබිය හැකි වනු පිණිස නුඹලා එයින් වැළකී සිටිනු.
