And judge between them according to what Allahu ta’ālā has revealed, and do not follow their whims, and beware of them lest they seduce you, [lest] they lead you astray, from part of what Allahu ta’ālā has revealed to you. But if they turn away, from the judgement revealed, and desire some other, then know that Allahu ta’ālā desires to smite them, with punishment in this world, for some of their sins, [those] which they have committed, among them, their turning away, and [that He desires] to requite them for all of their sins in the Hereafter; surely, many of mankind are wicked.
