People going astray and making their lusts their god

and obeying their desires.

{ 33 - 34} 52 -

Have you ever considered the case of the person who has made
his lust his god? Can you take the responsibility of guiding such a
one aright? Do you think that most of them hear or understand?
They are only like the cattle; nay, even worse than the cattle.

{ 25} 52 -

And who is in greater error than he who follows his lusts without
any guidance from Allah? Allah does not guide those given to
wrong-doing.
Many people

{ 111} 6 -

Many people indeed say misleading things without knowledge,

driven merely by their lowly desires. But your Lord knows well
the transgressors.

Children of Israel gave the lie to some of the prophets and killed
the others when they brought something against their desires.

{ 05} 2 -

And We took a covenant from the Children of Israel and sent to

them many Messengers. But whenever any Messenger brought
to them something that did not suit their desires, they gave the
lie to some of them and killed the others.
O People who possess knowledge! Be careful of
following desires.

{ 54} 32 -

Did you ever consider the case of him who took his desire as his
god, and then Allah caused him to go astray despite knowledge,
and sealed his hearing and his heart, and cast a veil over his
sight? Who, after Allah, can direct him to the Right Way? Will
you not take heed?

And recite to them [O Muhammad] the story of the man to

whom We gave Our signs (knowledge of our signs) and who
turned away from them; then ultimately Satan caught up with
him and he was led astray. Now had We so willed We could
indeed have exalted him through those signs, but he clung to
earthly life and followed his carnal desires. Thus his parable is
that of the dog who lolls out his tongue whether you attack him
or leave him alone. Such is the parable of those who reject Our
signs as false. Narrate to them these parables that they may
reflect.
Orders for Prophet David (PBUH): A message for the
kings & rulers.

{ 56} 42 -

)We said to him): O David, We have appointed you

vicegerent on earth. Therefore, rule among people with
justice and do not follow (your) desire lest it should lead you
astray from Allah's Path. Allah's severe chastisement awaits
those who stray away from Allah's Path, for they had
forgotten the Day of Reckoning.

O believers! Do not, then, follow your own desires lest

you keep away from justice.

{ 142} 3 -

Believers! Be upholders of justice, and bearers of witness to truth for

the sake of Allah, even though it may either be against yourselves or
against your parents and kinsmen, or the rich or the poor: for Allah
is more concerned with their well-being than you are. Do not, then,
follow your own desires lest you keep away from justice. If you twist
or turn away from (the truth), know that Allah is well aware of all
that you do.

Who shouldn't be obeyed among people?

{ 52} 12 -

Do not follow him whose heart We have caused to be heedless

of Our remembrance, and who follows his desires, and whose
case has gone beyond all bounds.
And do not follow the desires of those who

And do not follow the desires of those who have given the lie to Our
signs and who do not believe in the Hereafter and set up equals with
their Lord.

{16} 55 -

Let him who does not believe in it and follows his lust not turn your
thought away from it, lest you are ruined.

And if the Truth had followed their desires

{ 01} 54 -

Were the Truth to follow their desires, the order of the heavens and
the earth and those who dwell in them would have been ruined.
Nay, the fact is that We have brought to them their own
remembrance; and yet it is from their own remembrance that they
are turning away.

Do not follow desires, but obey the guidance of your God.

Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) was orderd not to follow
the desires of stray People.

Then We revealed the Book to you (O Muhammad!) with Truth,

confirming whatever of the Book was revealed before, and
protecting and guarding over it. Judge, then, in the affairs of men in
accordance with the Law that Allah has revealed, and do not follow
their desires in disregard of the Truth which has come to you.

{ 31} 2 -

Therefore, judge between them (O Muhammad!) by what Allah has

revealed and do not follow their desires, and beware lest they tempt
you away from anything of what Allah has revealed to you. And if
they turn away, then know well that Allah has indeed decided to afflict
them for some of their sins. For surely many of them are transgressors.

{ 50} 3 -

And Allah indeed wants to turn graciously towards you; but those
who follow their lusts would want you to drift far away from the
right way.

Say (O Muhanimad!): 'I have been forbidden to serve those to

whom you call other than Allah.' Say: 'I do not follow your
desires, for were I to do that, I would go astray and would not be
of those who are rightly guided'.

{ 12} 32 -

And then We set you, (O Prophet), on a clear high road in

religious matters. So follow that and do not follow the desires of
those who do not know.
Those who follow a Clear Guidance from Allah, are not like
those who pursue their lusts?

{ 13} 30 -

Then, can he, who is on a Clear Guidance from His Lord, be like
him whose evil deeds have been embellished to him, and who
pursued their lusts?
