The Holy Quran 6:52 — Surah Al-An'am

Arabic text

وَلَا تَطْرُدِ ٱلَّذِينَ يَدْعُونَ رَبَّهُم بِٱلْغَدَوٰةِ وَٱلْعَشِىِّ يُرِيدُونَ وَجْهَهُۥ ۖ مَا عَلَيْكَ مِنْ حِسَابِهِم مِّن شَىْءٍ وَمَا مِنْ حِسَابِكَ عَلَيْهِم مِّن شَىْءٍ فَتَطْرُدَهُمْ فَتَكُونَ مِنَ ٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ

Translation

(When some respectable Mushrikeen told Rasulullaah ﷺ that they will listen to him on condition that he removes the poor Sahabah رضي الله تعالى عنهم from his gathering, Allaah instructed Rasulullaah ﷺ saying,) Do not drive away those (poor Sahabah رضي الله تعالى عنهم) who call (worship) their Rabb morning and evening, seeking His pleasure. You are not accountable (responsible) at all for them (for their inner condition), nor are they (just as they are not) at all accountable (responsible) for you; (there is therefore no reason) that (permits) you (to) drive them away and (and for you) become of the wrong-doers (by doing this). (Since you have no knowledge of the inner conditions of their hearts, you have no reason to drive them out of your gatherings.)
