الْقُرْآنُ الْكَرِيمُسُورَةُ البَقَرَةِ (2:102)
وَاتَّبَعُوا مَا تَتْلُو الشَّيَاطِينُ عَلَىٰ مُلْكِ سُلَيْمَانَ ۖ وَمَا كَفَرَ سُلَيْمَانُ وَلَٰكِنَّ الشَّيَاطِينَ كَفَرُوا يُعَلِّمُونَ النَّاسَ السِّحْرَ وَمَا أُنزِلَ عَلَى الْمَلَكَيْنِ بِبَابِلَ هَارُوتَ وَمَارُوتَ ۚ وَمَا يُعَلِّمَانِ مِنْ أَحَدٍ حَتَّىٰ يَقُولَا إِنَّمَا نَحْنُ فِتْنَةٌ فَلَا تَكْفُرْ ۖ فَيَتَعَلَّمُونَ مِنْهُمَا مَا يُفَرِّقُونَ بِهِ بَيْنَ الْمَرْءِ وَزَوْجِهِ ۚ وَمَا هُم بِضَارِّينَ بِهِ مِنْ أَحَدٍ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ ۚ وَيَتَعَلَّمُونَ مَا يَضُرُّهُمْ وَلَا يَنفَعُهُمْ ۚ وَلَقَدْ عَلِمُوا لَمَنِ اشْتَرَاهُ مَا لَهُ فِي الْآخِرَةِ مِنْ خَلَاقٍ ۚ وَلَبِئْسَ مَا شَرَوْا بِهِ أَنفُسَهُمْ ۚ لَوْ كَانُوا
( سُورَةُ البَقَرَةِ (2:102) )

Translation: " They followed what the evil ones gave out (falsely) against the power of Solomon: the blasphemers, not Solomon, were but the evil ones, teaching men sorcery, and such things as came down at Babylon to the angels Harut and Marut. But neither of these taught anyone (such things) without saying: " We are only for trial; so do not blaspheme. " They learned from them the means to sow discord between man and wife. But they could not thus harm anyone except after Allah's permission. And they learned what harmed them, not what profited them. And they knew that the buyers of (magic) would have no share in happiness of the Hereafter. And vile was the price for which they did sell their souls, if they but knew! * " S: 2-102.

١٠٤٠ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ عَنِ النَّبِيَََََُُِّّّّّّّّ صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ : ( اجْتَنِبُوا السَّبْعَ المُوبِقَاتِ ) . قالُوا : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، وَمَا هُن قَالَ : ( الشرك باللهِ ، وَالسَحْرُ ، وَقَتْلُ النَّفْسِ الَّتِي حَرَّمَ اللهُ إِلَّا بِالْحَقِّ ، وَأَكُلُ الربا ، وَأَكُلُ مالِ الْيَتِيمِ ، وَالتّولّي يَوْمَ الرَّحْفِ ، وقَذْفُ الْمُحْصَنَاتِ المُؤْمِنْاتِ الْغَافِلَات ) . رواه البخاري

Translation: 1040. Narrated Abu-Huraira " The Prophet said: " Avoid the seven great destructive sins. " The people enquired; ' O Allah's Messenger! What are they? ' The Prophet ﷺ said: To join others in worship along with Allah, to practise sorcery, to kill the life that Allah has forbidden except for a just cause, (according to Islamic law), to eat up usury, to eat up the orphan's wealth, to show one's back to the enemy and fleeing from the battlefield at the time of fighting, and to accuse the chaste women, who never even think of anything touching chastity and are good believers.
