So woe32 to those who write the "scripture" with their own hands, then say, "This is from Allāh," in order to exchange it for a small price. Woe to them for what their hands have written and woe to them for what they earn.

Tafsir · 2:79

Al-Mukhtasar

Misery and great suffering await those who write the scripture with their own hands and then falsely allege that it comes from Allah. They exchange the truth and guidance for a small gain in this world, such as wealth or leadership. They will experience destruction and immense torment for what their hands have written, through which they lie about Allah. They will also attain destruction and immense torment for whatever wealth or leadership they gain through these lies.
