Scholars are mentioned in the Quran in these verses:

[9:31] They have set up their religious leaders and scholars as lords, instead of God. Others deified the Messiah, son of Mary. They were all commanded to worship only one god. There is no god except He. Be He glorified, high above having any partners.

[26:197] Is it not a sufficient sign for them that it was known to the scholars among the Children of Israel?
