Argumentum ad populum
In argumentation theory, an argumentum ad populum (Latin for "appeal to the people") is a fallacious argument that concludes that a proposition must be true because many or most people believe it, often concisely encapsulated as: "If many believe so, it is so".
Qur'anic point of view
The majority isn't the best barometer of what is true — we should ascertain the truth of the matter, in and of itself, irrespective of how many people believe in it.
