The word(s) "sire" appears 176 time(s) in 154 verse(s) in Quran in Muhammad Habib Shakir translation.

(71) And thus have We revealed it, a true judgment in Arabic, and if you follow their low desires after what has come to you of knowledge, you shall not have against Allah any guardian or a protector.

(72) (To) those who love this world's life more than the hereafter, and turn away from Allah's path and desire to make it crooked; these are in a great error.

(73) Allah's commandment has come, therefore do not desire to hasten it; glory be to Him, and highly exalted be He above what they associate (with Him).

(74) If you desire for their guidance, yet surely Allah does not guide him who leads astray, nor shall they have any helpers.

(75) And they ascribe daughters to Allah, glory be to Him; and for themselves (they would have) what they desire.

(76) Whoever desires this present life, We hasten to him therein what We please for whomsoever We desire, then We assign to him the hell; he shall enter it despised, driven away.

(77) And whoever desires the hereafter and strives for it as he ought to strive and he is a believer; (as for) these, their striving shall surely be accepted.

(78) So he desired to destroy them out of the earth, but We drowned him and those with him all together;

(79) And withhold yourself with those who call on their Lord morning and evening desiring His goodwill, and let not your eyes pass from them, desiring the beauties of this world's life; and do not follow him whose heart We have made unmindful to Our remembrance, and he follows his low desires and his case is one in which due bounds are exceeded.

(80) So we desired that their Lord might give them in his place one better than him in purity and nearer to having compassion.
