Vers: 113

وَلَا تَرۡكَنُوٓاْ إِلَى ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُواْ فَتَمَسَّكُمُ ٱلنَّارُ وَمَا لَكُم مِّن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ مِنۡ أَوۡلِيَآءَ ثُمَّ لَا تُنصَرُونَ

(113) And do not be titled towards^[2637] those who committed injustice lest that the Fire touches you; you ˹would˺ have no allies besides Allah and then you would not be helped.

[2637] Tarkanū (lit. to be tilted towards) is to be inclined towards the other camp who are deviant from the straight path (cf. al-Tafsīr al-Muyassar). Both ‘transgressing’ the limits and leaning to the other side grind against devout uprightness. It is widely reported that the great scholar al-Ḥasan al-Baṣrī said: “Allah placed the ˹upright˺ religion between two ‘do nots’: “Do not transgress” and “Do not be tilted towards”” (cf. Ibn ʿĀshūr).
