In the Quran
مَن يُضْلِلِ ٱللَّهُ فَلَا هَادِىَ لَهُۥ ۚ وَيَذَرُهُمْ فِى طُغْيَٰنِهِمْ يَعْمَهُونَ
جس شخص کو خدا گمراہ کرے اس کو کوئی ہدایت دینے والا نہیں اور وہ ان (گمراہوں) کو چھوڑے رکھتا ہے کہ اپنی سرکشی میں پڑے بہکتے رہیں
Those whom Allah sendeth astray, there is no guide for them. He leaveth them to wander blindly on in their contumacy.
