وَلَئِنْ اَتَيْتَ الَّذ۪ينَ اُو۫تُوا الْكِتَابَ بِكُلِّ اٰيَةٍ مَا تَبِعُوا قِبْلَتَكَۚ وَمَٓا اَنْتَ بِتَابِعٍ قِبْلَتَهُمْۚ وَمَا بَعْضُهُمْ بِتَابِعٍ قِبْلَةَ بَعْضٍۜ وَلَئِنِ اتَّبَعْتَ اَهْوَٓاءَهُمْ مِنْ بَعْدِ مَا جَٓاءَكَ مِنَ الْعِلْمِۙ اِنَّكَ اِذًا لَمِنَ الظَّالِم۪ينَۢ ١٤٥

English Translation
145Even if you brought every proof to those who were given the Book, they would still not follow your qibla, nor are you going to follow their qibla. Indeed, they do not even follow each other's qibla. If, after all the knowledge that has come to you, you were to follow their desires and whims, you too would be among those who do injustice to the truth.
