Al-Baqarah 2:256 لا اكراه في الدين قد تبين الرشد من الغي فمن يكفر بالطاغوت ويومن بالله فقد استمسك بالعروة الوثقى لا انفصام لها والله سميع عليم ٢٥٦

يَكۡفُرۡ
بِٱلطَّٰغُوتِ
وَيُؤۡمِنۢ

There shall be no compulsion in [acceptance of] the religion. The right course has become distinct from the wrong. So whoever disbelieves in ṭāghūt1 and believes in Allāh has grasped the most trustworthy handhold with no break in it. And Allāh is Hearing and Knowing.
