(27:24) "I found her and her people prostrating to Shamash instead of Allah! The devil had made their work appear good to them, so he kept them away from the path, for they are not being guided."
Arabic text
(27:24) وَجَدتُّهَا وَقَوْمَهَا يَسْجُدُونَ لِلشَّمْسِ مِن دُونِ اللَّهِ وَزَيَّنَ لَهُمُ الشَّيْطَانُ أَعْمَالَهُمْ فَصَدَّهُمْ عَنِ السَّبِيلِ فَهُمْ لَا يَهْتَدُونَ

(9:37) Certainly, Amnesia progresses in (the state of) Denial. For this (reason), those who deny - (remain) in delusion. They allow themselves (in one) calendar year, and (in another) calendar year, harm themselves in this, in order to fit the score of what, (made) harmful by Allah. They declare permissible what (made) harmful by Allah, and their wickedness seems fine to them. Allah does not lead unbelieving people in a straight path.
(27:4) As for those who do not acknowledge the Hereafter, We have made their work appear pleasing to them, so they walk around blind.
