Al-Qashash · Ayah 55 · Juz 20 · Page 392

وَإِذَا سَمِعُواْ ٱللَّغۡوَ أَعۡرَضُواْ عَنۡهُ وَقَالُواْ لَنَآ أَعۡمَٰلُنَا وَلَكُمۡ أَعۡمَٰلُكُمۡ سَلَٰمٌ عَلَيۡكُمۡ لَا نَبۡتَغِي ٱلۡجَٰهِلِينَ ٥٥

Wa idhā samiʿul-laghwa aʿraḍū ʿanhu wa qālū lanā aʿmālunā wa lakum aʿmālukum salāmun ʿalaykum lā nabtaghil-jāhilīn.

And when they hear ill speech, they turn away from it and say, "For us are our deeds, and for you are your deeds. Peace will be upon you;1 we seek not the ignorant."

Translation: Sahih International

Footnotes (1)
  1. This is not the Islāmic greeting of "Peace be upon you." Rather, it means "You are secure from being treated in a like manner by us."
