O People! Worship your Guardian Lord, Who created you and those before you, so
that you become Righteous. (2: 21)
Guard yourself against a day when no soul
shall avail another, no intercession shall be accepted for her, no compensation
shall be taken from her, and no one shall be there to help. (2: 48)
Be
steadfast in prayer and give Zakat ( Specified Charity); and whatever good you
send forth for your souls before you, you shall find it with Allah: for Allah
sees well all that you do. (2: 110)
O you who believe! Seek help with patient
perseverance and prayer: for God is with those who patiently persevere. (2:
153)
Be sure we shall test you with something of fear and hunger, some loss
in goods, lives, and the fruits (of your toil), but give glad tidings to those
who patiently persevere. (2: 155)
O you who believe! Enter into Islam
whole-heartedly; and do not follow the footsteps of Satan, for he is to you an
avowed enemy. (2: 208)
O you who believe! Fear Allah as He should be feared;
and die not except in a state of Islam. And hold fast all together, by the Rope
Allah stretches out for you, and be not divided among yourselves….(3: 102,
103)
Let there arise out of you a band of people inviting to all that is
good, enjoining what is right and forbidding what is wrong; they are the ones to
attain felicity. (3: 104)
Do not lose heart; nor fall into despair: For you
must gain mastery if you are true in Faith. (3: 139) O you who believe!
Persevere in patience and constancy; vie in such perseverance; strengthen each
other; and fear Allah; that you may prosper. (3: 200)
O you who believe! Obey
Allah, and obey the Messenger and those charged with authority among you. If you
differ in anything among yourselves, refer it to Allah and His Messenger, if you
do believe in Allah and the Last Day: That is the best, and the most suitable
course for final determination. (4: 59)
Those who believe and do deeds of
righteousness,-- we shall soon admit them to Gardens, with rivers flowing
beneath,-- to dwell therein for ever. Allah’s promise is true, and whose word
can be truer than Allah’s? (4: 122) If any do deeds of righteousness,--be
they male or female--and have faith, they will enter heaven and not the least
injustice will be done to them. Who can be better in religion than one who
submits his whole self to Allah, does good, and follows the way of Abraham the
true in faith? For Allah did take Abraham for a friend. (4: 124, 125)
O you
who believe! Stand out firmly for Justice, as witnesses to Allah, even as
against yourselves, or your parents, or your kin, or whether it be (against)
rich or poor: For Allah can best protect both. Follow not the lusts (of your
hearts), lest you swerve. And if you distort justice, verily Allah is well-
acquainted with all that you do. (4: 135)
Certainly they disbelieve who say:
“Allah is Christ the son of Mary” But Christ said: “O Children of Israel!
Worship Allah, my Lord and your Lord.” Whoever joins other gods with Allah—Allah
will forbid him the Garden, and the Fire will be his abode. For the wrong-doers,
there will no one to help. They disbelieve who say:“Allah is one of the
Trinity”: for there is no god except the One God. If they do not refrain from
their word (of blasphemy), verily a grievous punishment will befall the
disbelievers among them. (5: 73, 74).
O you who believe! Do not betray the
Trust of Allah and the Messenger, nor misappropriate knowingly things entrusted
to you. And know that your possessions and your children are but a trial: and
that it is Allah with Whom lies your highest reward. (8: 27, 28)
Say: if it
be that your fathers, your sons, your brothers, your mates, or your kindred, the
wealth that you have gained, the commerce in which you fear a decline, or the
dwellings in which you delight—are dearer to you than Allah or His Messenger, or
the striving in His cause; then wait until Allah brings about His decision: and
Allah does not guide the rebellious. (9: 24)
Say: “O my Servants who have
transgressed against their souls! Despair not of the Mercy of Allah: for Allah
forgives all sins: for He is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful….” (39:
53).
