What Quran Says About Blasphemy? - READ

The Qur'an prescribes restraint, and distancing from the blasphemous
persons or situations. The emphasis is on restraint and forgiveness.
A study of the following verses should bear this out:

"When ye hear the signs of Allah held in defiance and ridicule, ye are
not to sit with them unless they turn to a different theme ." [Qur'an
4:140]

"And when they hear vain talk, they turn away therefrom and say: "to
us our deeds and to you yours; peace be to you." [Qur'an 28: 55]

"Hold to forgiveness, command what is right; but turn away from the
ignorant." [Qur'an 7:199]

"Have patience with what they say, and leaves them with noble (dignity
)." [Qur'an 73:10]

"And the servants of Allah . . . are those who walked on the earth in
humility, and when the ignorant address them, they say 'Peace'"
[Qur'an 25:63]

"Allah is with those who restrainthemselves." [Qur'an 16: 128]

". . . But they uttered blasphemy. . . if they repent, it will be best
for them, but if they turn back, Allah will punish them." [Qur'an
9:47]
