يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓاْ إِنَّمَا ٱلۡخَمۡرُ وَٱلۡمَيۡسِرُ وَٱلۡأَنصَابُ وَٱلۡأَزۡلَٰمُ رِجۡسٞ مِّنۡ عَمَلِ ٱلشَّيۡطَٰنِ فَٱجۡتَنِبُوهُ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تُفۡلِحُونَ

(90) ^[1247]You who Believe, intoxicants, gambling, altars ˹of idolatry˺^[1248] and casting lots ˹for divination˺^[1249] are nothing but defilement of the making of Satan, so steer clear from it ˹all˺, so that you might be successful.
