The Holy Quran 2:166 — Surah Al-Baqarah

Arabic text

إِذْ تَبَرَّأَ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱتُّبِعُوا۟ مِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱتَّبَعُوا۟ وَرَأَوُا۟ ٱلْعَذَابَ وَتَقَطَّعَتْ بِهِمُ ٱلْأَسْبَابُ

Translation

(They would also not attribute equals to Allaah if they could see the time on the Day of Qiyaamah) When those who were followed (the misguided leaders) disassociate themselves from their followers (denying that they misled them); (when) they see the punishment and (when they see that) all ties between them are cut (and that they will be enemies of each other).

Tafsir (excerpt) — التفسير الميسر

عند معاينتهم عذاب الآخرة يتبرأ الرؤساء المتبوعون ممن اتبعهم على الشرك، وتنقطع بينهم كل الصلات التي ارتبطوا بها في الدنيا: من القرابة، والاتِّباع، والدين، وغير ذلك.
