يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِنَّمَا الْخَمْرُ وَالْمَيْسِرُ وَالأَنصَابُ وَالأَزْلاَمُ رِجْس ٌ مِنْ عَمَلِ الشَّيْطَانِ فَاجْتَنِبُوه ُُ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُفْلِحُونَ
Yā 'Ayyuhā Al-Ladhīna 'Āmanū 'Innamā Al-Khamru Wa Al-Maysiru Wa Al-'Anşābu Wa Al-'Azlāmu Rijsun Min `Amali Ash-Shayţāni Fājtanibūhu La`allakum Tufliĥūna
O you who believe, intoxicants, and gambling, and sacraments, and fortunes are an affliction used by the devil. You shall avoid him so that you may be successful.
6:125
فَمَنْ يُرِدِ اللَّهُ أَنْ يَهدِيَه ُُ يَشْرَحْ صَدْرَه ُُ لِلإِسْلاَمِ وَمَنْ يُرِدْ أَنْ يُضِلَّه ُُ يَجْعَلْ صَدْرَه ُُ ضَيِّقاً حَرَجا ً كَأَنَّمَا يَصَّعَّدُ فِي السَّمَاءِ كَذَلِكَ يَجْعَلُ اللَّهُ الرِّجْسَ عَلَى الَّذِينَ لاَ يُؤْمِنُونَ

Whoever God wishes to guide, He will comfort his chest to submission; and whoever He wishes to misguide, He will make his chest tight and constricted, as one who is ascending towards the heaven. It is such that God afflicts those who do not believe.
6:145
قُلْ لاَ أَجِدُ فِي مَا أُوحِيَ إِلَيَّ مُحَرَّماً عَلَى طَاعِم ٍ يَطْعَمُهُ~ُ إِلاَّ أَنْ يَكُونَ مَيْتَةً أَوْ دَما ً مَسْفُوحاً أَوْ لَحْمَ خِنزِير ٍ فَإِنَّه ُُ رِجْسٌ أَوْ فِسْقاً أُهِلَّ لِغَيْرِ اللَّهِ بِه ِِ فَمَنِ اضْطُرَّ غَيْرَ بَاغ ٍ وَلاَ عَاد ٍ فَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ غَفُور ٌ رَحِيم ٌ

Say: "I do not find in what is inspired to me to be unlawful for any eater to eat except that it be already dead, or running blood, or the meat of pig - for it is foul - or what is a wickedness, dedicated to other than God." But whoever is forced to, without seeking disobedience or transgression, then your Lord is Forgiving, Merciful.
7:71
قَالَ قَدْ وَقَعَ عَلَيْكُمْ مِنْ رَبِّكُمْ رِجْس ٌ وَغَضَبٌ أَتُجَادِلُونَنِي فِي أَسْمَاء ٍ سَمَّيْتُمُوهَا أَنْتُمْ وَآبَاؤُكُمْ مَا نَزَّلَ اللَّهُ بِهَا مِنْ سُلْطَان ٍ فَانتَظِرُوا إِنِّي مَعَكُمْ مِنَ الْمُنتَظِرِينَ

He said: "An affliction and wrath shall befall you from your Lord. Do you argue with me over names which you and your fathers have created with no authority being sent down by God? Wait then, and I will wait with you."
9:95
سَيَحْلِفُونَ بِاللَّهِ لَكُمْ إِذَا انقَلَبْتُمْ إِلَيْهِمْ لِتُعْرِضُوا عَنْهُمْ فَأَعْرِضُوا عَنْهُمْ إِنَّهُمْ رِجْس ٌ وَمَأْوَاهُمْ جَهَنَّمُ جَزَاء ً بِمَا كَانُوا يَكْسِبُونَ

They will swear by God to you, when you return to them, so that you would let them be. So let them be, for they are foul, and their destiny is Hell as a recompense for what they earned.
9:125
وَأَمَّا الَّذِينَ فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ مَرَض ٌ فَزَادَتْهُمْ رِجْسا ً إِلَى رِجْسِهِمْ وَمَاتُوا وَهُمْ كَافِرُونَ
Wa 'Ammā Al-Ladhīna Fī Qulūbihim MaraĐun Fazādat/hum Rijsāan 'Ilá Rijsihim Wa Mātū Wa Hum Kāfirūna
As for those who have a disease in their hearts, it only increased affliction to their affliction, and they died as rejecters.

10:100
وَمَا كَانَ لِنَفْسٍ أَنْ تُؤْمِنَ إِلاَّ بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ وَيَجْعَلُ الرِّجْسَ عَلَى الَّذِينَ لاَ يَعْقِلُونَ
Wa Mā Kāna Linafsin 'An Tu'umina 'Illā Bi'idhni Allāhi Wa Yaj`alu Ar-Rijsa `Alá Al-Ladhīna Lā Ya`qilūna
And it is not for a soul to believe except with the permission of God. And He makes the affliction upon those who do not comprehend.
22:30
ذَلِكَ وَمَنْ يُعَظِّمْ حُرُمَاتِ اللَّهِ فَهُوَ خَيْر ٌ لَه ُُ عِنْدَ رَبِّه ِِ وَأُحِلَّتْ لَكُمُ الأَنعَام إِلاَّ مَا يُتْلَى عَلَيْكُمْ فَاجْتَنِبُوا الرِّجْسَ مِنَ الأَوْثَانِ وَاجْتَنِبُوا قَوْلَ الزُّورِ

Thus, and whoever honors the restrictions of God, then it is better for him with His Lord. And the livestock has been made lawful for you; except what is being recited to you; so avoid the foulness of idols and avoid saying false statements.
33:33
وَقَرْنَ فِي بُيُوتِكُنَّ وَلاَ تَبَرَّجْنَ تَبَرُّجَ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ الأُولَى وَأَقِمْنَ الصَّلاَةَ وَآتِينَ الزَّكَاةَ وَأَطِعْنَ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ~ُ إِنَّمَا يُرِيدُ اللَّهُ لِيُذْهِبَ عَنْكُمُ الرِّجْسَ أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ وَيُطَهِّرَكُمْ تَطْهِيرا ً

You shall be content in your homes, and do not show off like in the old days of ignorance. You shall hold the contact prayer, and contribute towards purification, and obey God and His messenger. God wishes to remove any affliction from you, O people of the Sanctuary, and to purify you completely.
