10:106
وَ لَا تَدْعُ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ مَا لَا يَنفَعُ كَ وَ لَا يَضُرُّ كَ فَ إِن فَعَلْ تَ فَ إِنَّ كَ إِذًا مِّنَ ٱل ظَّٰلِمِينَ
And do not invoke besides Allah that which neither benefits you nor harms you, for if you did, then indeed you would be of the wrongdoers.'"
10:18
وَ يَعْبُدُ ونَ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ مَا لَا يَضُرُّ هُمْ وَ لَا يَنفَعُ هُمْ وَ يَقُولُ ونَ هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ شُفَعَٰٓؤُ نَا عِندَ ٱللَّهِ قُلْ أَ تُنَبِّـُٔ ونَ ٱللَّهَ بِ مَا لَا يَعْلَمُ فِى ٱل سَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَ لَا فِى ٱلْ أَرْضِ سُبْحَٰنَ هُۥ وَ تَعَٰلَىٰ عَ مَّا يُشْرِكُ ونَ
And they worship other than Allah that which neither harms them nor benefits them, and they say, "These are our intercessors with Allah " Say, "Do you inform Allah of something He does not know in the heavens or on the earth?" Exalted is He and high above what they associate with Him
10:98
فَ لَوْلَا كَانَتْ قَرْيَةٌ ءَامَنَتْ فَ نَفَعَ هَآ إِيمَٰنُ هَآ إِلَّا قَوْمَ يُونُسَ لَمَّآ ءَامَنُ وا۟ كَشَفْ نَا عَنْ هُمْ عَذَابَ ٱلْ خِزْىِ فِى ٱلْ حَيَوٰةِ ٱل دُّنْيَا وَ مَتَّعْ نَٰ هُمْ إِلَىٰ حِينٍ
Then has there not been a [single] city that believed so its faith benefited it except the people of Jonah? When they believed, We removed from them the punishment of disgrace in worldly life and gave them enjoyment for a time.
11:34
وَ لَا يَنفَعُ كُمْ نُصْحِ ىٓ إِنْ أَرَد تُّ أَنْ أَنصَحَ لَ كُمْ إِن كَانَ ٱللَّهُ يُرِيدُ أَن يُغْوِيَ كُمْ هُوَ رَبُّ كُمْ وَ إِلَيْ هِ تُرْجَعُ ونَ
And my advice will not benefit you - although I wished to advise you - If Allah should intend to put you in error. He is your Lord, and to Him you will be returned."
12:21
وَ قَالَ ٱلَّذِى ٱشْتَرَىٰ هُ مِن مِّصْرَ لِ ٱمْرَأَتِ هِۦٓ أَكْرِمِ ى مَثْوَىٰ هُ عَسَىٰٓ أَن يَنفَعَ نَآ أَوْ نَتَّخِذَ هُۥ وَلَدًا وَ كَ ذَٰلِكَ مَكَّ نَّا لِ يُوسُفَ فِى ٱلْ أَرْضِ وَ لِ نُعَلِّمَ هُۥ مِن تَأْوِيلِ ٱلْ أَحَادِيثِ وَ ٱللَّهُ غَالِبٌ عَلَىٰٓ أَمْرِ هِۦ وَ لَٰكِنَّ أَكْثَرَ ٱل نَّاسِ لَا يَعْلَمُ ونَ
And the one from Egypt who bought him said to his wife, "Make his residence comfortable. Perhaps he will benefit us, or we will adopt him as a son." And thus, We established Joseph in the land that We might teach him the interpretation of events. And Allah is predominant over His affair, but most of the people do not know.
13:17
أَنزَلَ مِنَ ٱل سَّمَآءِ مَآءً فَ سَالَتْ أَوْدِيَةٌۢ بِ قَدَرِ هَا فَ ٱحْتَمَلَ ٱل سَّيْلُ زَبَدًا رَّابِيًا وَ مِ مَّا يُوقِدُ ونَ عَلَيْ هِ فِى ٱل نَّارِ ٱبْتِغَآءَ حِلْيَةٍ أَوْ مَتَٰعٍ زَبَدٌ مِّثْلُ هُۥ كَ ذَٰلِكَ يَضْرِبُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلْ حَقَّ وَ ٱلْ بَٰطِلَ فَ أَمَّا ٱل زَّبَدُ فَ يَذْهَبُ جُفَآءً وَ أَمَّا مَا يَنفَعُ ٱل نَّاسَ فَ يَمْكُثُ فِى ٱلْ أَرْضِ كَ ذَٰلِكَ يَضْرِبُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلْ أَمْثَالَ
He sends down from the sky, rain, and valleys flow according to their capacity, and the torrent carries a rising foam. And from that [ore] which they heat in the fire, desiring adornments and utensils, is a foam like it. Thus Allah presents [the example of] truth and falsehood. As for the foam, it vanishes, [being] cast off; but as for that which benefits the people, it remains on the earth. Thus does Allah present examples.
20:109
يَوْمَئِذٍ لَّا تَنفَعُ ٱل شَّفَٰعَةُ إِلَّا مَنْ أَذِنَ لَ هُ ٱل رَّحْمَٰنُ وَ رَضِىَ لَ هُۥ قَوْلًا
That Day, no intercession will benefit except [that of] one to whom the Most Merciful has given permission and has accepted his word.
21:66
قَالَ أَ فَ تَعْبُدُ ونَ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ مَا لَا يَنفَعُ كُمْ شَيْـًٔا وَ لَا يَضُرُّ كُمْ
He said, "Then do you worship instead of Allah that which does not benefit you at all or harm you?
22:12
يَدْعُوا۟ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ مَا لَا يَضُرُّ هُۥ وَ مَا لَا يَنفَعُ هُۥ ذَٰلِكَ هُوَ ٱل ضَّلَٰلُ ٱلْ بَعِيدُ
He invokes instead of Allah that which neither harms him nor benefits him. That is what is the extreme error.
25:55
وَ يَعْبُدُ ونَ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ مَا لَا يَنفَعُ هُمْ وَ لَا يَضُرُّ هُمْ وَ كَانَ ٱلْ كَافِرُ عَلَىٰ رَبِّ هِۦ ظَهِيرًا
But they worship rather than Allah that which does not benefit them or harm them, and the disbeliever is ever, against his Lord, an assistant [to Satan].
26:73
أَوْ يَنفَعُ ونَ كُمْ أَوْ يَضُرُّ ونَ
Or do they benefit you, or do they harm?"
26:88
يَوْمَ لَا يَنفَعُ مَالٌ وَ لَا بَنُونَ
The Day when there will not benefit [anyone] wealth or children
28:9
وَ قَالَتِ ٱمْرَأَتُ فِرْعَوْنَ قُرَّتُ عَيْنٍ لِّ ى وَ لَ كَ لَا تَقْتُلُ و هُ عَسَىٰٓ أَن يَنفَعَ نَآ أَوْ نَتَّخِذَ هُۥ وَلَدًا وَ هُمْ لَا يَشْعُرُ ونَ
And the wife of Pharaoh said, "[He will be] a comfort of the eye for me and for you. Do not kill him; perhaps he may benefit us, or we may adopt him as a son." And they perceived not.
2:102
وَ ٱتَّبَعُ وا۟ مَا تَتْلُوا۟ ٱل شَّيَٰطِينُ عَلَىٰ مُلْكِ سُلَيْمَٰنَ وَ مَا كَفَرَ سُلَيْمَٰنُ وَ لَٰكِنَّ ٱل شَّيَٰطِينَ كَفَرُ وا۟ يُعَلِّمُ ونَ ٱل نَّاسَ ٱل سِّحْرَ وَ مَآ أُنزِلَ عَلَى ٱلْ مَلَكَيْنِ بِ بَابِلَ هَٰرُوتَ وَ مَٰرُوتَ وَ مَا يُعَلِّمَ انِ مِنْ أَحَدٍ حَتَّىٰ يَقُولَ آ إِنَّ مَا نَحْنُ فِتْنَةٌ فَ لَا تَكْفُرْ فَ يَتَعَلَّمُ ونَ مِنْ هُمَا مَا يُفَرِّقُ ونَ بِ هِۦ بَيْنَ ٱلْ مَرْءِ وَ زَوْجِ هِۦ وَ مَا هُم بِ ضَآرِّينَ بِ هِۦ مِنْ أَحَدٍ إِلَّا بِ إِذْنِ ٱللَّهِ وَ يَتَعَلَّمُ ونَ مَا يَضُرُّ هُمْ وَ لَا يَنفَعُ هُمْ وَ لَ قَدْ عَلِمُ وا۟ لَ مَنِ ٱشْتَرَىٰ هُ مَا لَ هُۥ فِى ٱلْ ءَاخِرَةِ مِنْ خَلَٰقٍ وَ لَ بِئْسَ مَا شَرَ وْا۟ بِ هِۦٓ أَنفُسَ هُمْ لَوْ كَانُ وا۟ يَعْلَمُ ونَ
And they followed [instead] what the devils had recited during the reign of Solomon. It was not Solomon who disbelieved, but the devils disbelieved, teaching people magic and that which was revealed to the two angels at Babylon, Harut and Marut. But the two angels do not teach anyone unless they say, "We are a trial, so do not disbelieve [by practicing magic]." And [yet] they learn from them that by which they cause separation between a man and his wife. But they do not harm anyone through it except by permission of Allah. And the people learn what harms them and does not benefit them. But the Children of Israel certainly knew that whoever purchased the magic would not have in the Hereafter any share. And wretched is that for which they sold themselves, if they only knew.
2:123
وَ ٱتَّقُ وا۟ يَوْمًا لَّا تَجْزِى نَفْسٌ عَن نَّفْسٍ شَيْـًٔا وَ لَا يُقْبَلُ مِنْ هَا عَدْلٌ وَ لَا تَنفَعُ هَا شَفَٰعَةٌ وَ لَا هُمْ يُنصَرُ ونَ
And fear a Day when no soul will suffice for another soul at all, and no compensation will be accepted from it, nor will any intercession benefit it, nor will they be aided.
2:164
إِنَّ فِى خَلْقِ ٱل سَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَ ٱلْ أَرْضِ وَ ٱخْتِلَٰفِ ٱلَّ يْلِ وَ ٱل نَّهَارِ وَ ٱلْ فُلْكِ ٱلَّتِى تَجْرِى فِى ٱلْ بَحْرِ بِ مَا يَنفَعُ ٱل نَّاسَ وَ مَآ أَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ مِنَ ٱل سَّمَآءِ مِن مَّآءٍ فَ أَحْيَا بِ هِ ٱلْ أَرْضَ بَعْدَ مَوْتِ هَا وَ بَثَّ فِي هَا مِن كُلِّ دَآبَّةٍ وَ تَصْرِيفِ ٱل رِّيَٰحِ وَ ٱل سَّحَابِ ٱلْ مُسَخَّرِ بَيْنَ ٱل سَّمَآءِ وَ ٱلْ أَرْضِ لَ ءَايَٰتٍ لِّ قَوْمٍ يَعْقِلُ ونَ
Indeed, in the creation of the heavens and earth, and the alternation of the night and the day, and the [great] ships which sail through the sea with that which benefits people, and what Allah has sent down from the heavens of rain, giving life thereby to the earth after its lifelessness and dispersing therein every [kind of] moving creature, and [His] directing of the winds and the clouds controlled between the heaven and the earth are signs for a people who use reason.
30:57
فَ يَوْمَئِذٍ لَّا يَنفَعُ ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُ وا۟ مَعْذِرَتُ هُمْ وَ لَا هُمْ يُسْتَعْتَبُ ونَ
So that Day, their excuse will not benefit those who wronged, nor will they be asked to appease [Allah].
32:29
قُلْ يَوْمَ ٱلْ فَتْحِ لَا يَنفَعُ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُ وٓا۟ إِيمَٰنُ هُمْ وَ لَا هُمْ يُنظَرُ ونَ
Say, [O Muhammad], "On the Day of Conquest the belief of those who had disbelieved will not benefit them, nor will they be reprieved."
33:16
قُل لَّن يَنفَعَ كُمُ ٱلْ فِرَارُ إِن فَرَرْ تُم مِّنَ ٱلْ مَوْتِ أَوِ ٱلْ قَتْلِ وَ إِذًا لَّا تُمَتَّعُ ونَ إِلَّا قَلِيلًا
Say, [O Muhammad], "Never will fleeing benefit you if you should flee from death or killing; and then [if you did], you would not be given enjoyment [of life] except for a little."
34:23
وَ لَا تَنفَعُ ٱل شَّفَٰعَةُ عِندَ هُۥٓ إِلَّا لِ مَنْ أَذِنَ لَ هُۥ حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا فُزِّعَ عَن قُلُوبِ هِمْ قَالُ وا۟ مَاذَا قَالَ رَبُّ كُمْ قَالُ وا۟ ٱلْ حَقَّ وَ هُوَ ٱلْ عَلِىُّ ٱلْ كَبِيرُ
And intercession does not benefit with Him except for one whom He permits. [And those wait] until, when terror is removed from their hearts, they will say [to one another], "What has your Lord said?" They will say, "The truth." And He is the Most High, the Grand.
40:52
يَوْمَ لَا يَنفَعُ ٱل ظَّٰلِمِينَ مَعْذِرَتُ هُمْ وَ لَ هُمُ ٱل لَّعْنَةُ وَ لَ هُمْ سُوٓءُ ٱل دَّارِ
The Day their excuse will not benefit the wrongdoers, and they will have the curse, and they will have the worst home.
40:85
فَ لَمْ يَكُ يَنفَعُ هُمْ إِيمَٰنُ هُمْ لَمَّا رَأَ وْا۟ بَأْسَ نَا سُنَّتَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلَّتِى قَدْ خَلَتْ فِى عِبَادِ هِۦ وَ خَسِرَ هُنَالِكَ ٱلْ كَٰفِرُونَ
But never did their faith benefit them once they saw Our punishment. [It is] the established way of Allah which has preceded among His servants. And the disbelievers thereupon lost [all].
43:39
وَ لَن يَنفَعَ كُمُ ٱلْ يَوْمَ إِذ ظَّلَمْ تُمْ أَنَّ كُمْ فِى ٱلْ عَذَابِ مُشْتَرِكُونَ
And never will it benefit you that Day, when you have wronged, that you are [all] sharing in the punishment.
51:55
وَ ذَكِّرْ فَ إِنَّ ٱل ذِّكْرَىٰ تَنفَعُ ٱلْ مُؤْمِنِينَ
And remind, for indeed, the reminder benefits the believers.
5:119
قَالَ ٱللَّهُ هَٰذَا يَوْمُ يَنفَعُ ٱل صَّٰدِقِينَ صِدْقُ هُمْ لَ هُمْ جَنَّٰتٌ تَجْرِى مِن تَحْتِ هَا ٱلْ أَنْهَٰرُ خَٰلِدِينَ فِي هَآ أَبَدًا رَّضِىَ ٱللَّهُ عَنْ هُمْ وَ رَضُ وا۟ عَنْ هُ ذَٰلِكَ ٱلْ فَوْزُ ٱلْ عَظِيمُ
Allah will say, "This is the Day when the truthful will benefit from their truthfulness." For them are gardens [in Paradise] beneath which rivers flow, wherein they will abide forever, Allah being pleased with them, and they with Him. That is the great attainment.
60:3
لَن تَنفَعَ كُمْ أَرْحَامُ كُمْ وَ لَآ أَوْلَٰدُ كُمْ يَوْمَ ٱلْ قِيَٰمَةِ يَفْصِلُ بَيْنَ كُمْ وَ ٱللَّهُ بِ مَا تَعْمَلُ ونَ بَصِيرٌ
Never will your relatives or your children benefit you; the Day of Resurrection He will judge between you. And Allah, of what you do, is Seeing.
6:158
هَلْ يَنظُرُ ونَ إِلَّآ أَن تَأْتِيَ هُمُ ٱلْ مَلَٰٓئِكَةُ أَوْ يَأْتِىَ رَبُّ كَ أَوْ يَأْتِىَ بَعْضُ ءَايَٰتِ رَبِّ كَ يَوْمَ يَأْتِى بَعْضُ ءَايَٰتِ رَبِّ كَ لَا يَنفَعُ نَفْسًا إِيمَٰنُ هَا لَمْ تَكُنْ ءَامَنَتْ مِن قَبْلُ أَوْ كَسَبَتْ فِىٓ إِيمَٰنِ هَا خَيْرًا قُلِ ٱنتَظِرُ وٓا۟ إِنَّ ا مُنتَظِرُونَ
Do they [then] wait for anything except that the angels should come to them or your Lord should come or that there come some of the signs of your Lord? The Day that some of the signs of your Lord will come no soul will benefit from its faith as long as it had not believed before or had earned through its faith some good. Say, "Wait. Indeed, we [also] are waiting."
6:71
قُلْ أَ نَدْعُوا۟ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ مَا لَا يَنفَعُ نَا وَ لَا يَضُرُّ نَا وَ نُرَدُّ عَلَىٰٓ أَعْقَابِ نَا بَعْدَ إِذْ هَدَىٰ نَا ٱللَّهُ كَ ٱلَّذِى ٱسْتَهْوَتْ هُ ٱل شَّيَٰطِينُ فِى ٱلْ أَرْضِ حَيْرَانَ لَ هُۥٓ أَصْحَٰبٌ يَدْعُ ونَ هُۥٓ إِلَى ٱلْ هُدَى ٱئْتِ نَا قُلْ إِنَّ هُدَى ٱللَّهِ هُوَ ٱلْ هُدَىٰ وَ أُمِرْ نَا لِ نُسْلِمَ لِ رَبِّ ٱلْ عَٰلَمِينَ
Say, "Shall we invoke instead of Allah that which neither benefits us nor harms us and be turned back on our heels after Allah has guided us? [We would then be] like one whom the devils enticed [to wander] upon the earth confused, [while] he has companions inviting him to guidance, [calling], 'Come to us.' " Say, "Indeed, the guidance of Allah is the [only] guidance; and we have been commanded to submit to the Lord of the worlds.
74:48
فَ مَا تَنفَعُ هُمْ شَفَٰعَةُ ٱل شَّٰفِعِينَ
So there will not benefit them the intercession of [any] intercessors.
80:4
أَوْ يَذَّكَّرُ فَ تَنفَعَ هُ ٱل ذِّكْرَىٰٓ
Or be reminded and the remembrance would benefit him?
87:9
فَ ذَكِّرْ إِن نَّفَعَتِ ٱل ذِّكْرَىٰ
So remind, if the reminder should benefit;
