118 GENERAL KNOWLEDGE FROM THE QUR'AN

The Prophet Muhammad (saas) is a Human Being
Say: 'I am only a human being like yourselves. It is revealed to me
that your god is One God. So let him who hopes to meet his Lord act
rightly and not associate anyone in the worship of his Lord.' (Surat al-
Kahf, 110)
The Prophet Muhammad (saas) is on a Straight Path
Truly you are one of the Messengers on a Straight Path. (Surah Ya
Sin, 3-4)
Accordingly We have revealed to you a Spirit by Our command. You
had no idea of what the Book was, nor faith. Nonetheless We have
made it a Light by which We guide those of Our servants We will.
Truly you are guiding to a Straight Path. (Surat ash-Shura, 52)
So hold fast to what has been revealed to you. You are on a straight
path. (Surat az-Zukhruf, 43)
Truly We have granted you a clear victory, so that Allah may forgive
you your earlier errors and any later ones and complete His blessing
upon you, and guide you on a Straight Path. (Surat al-Fath, 1-2)
The Prophet Muhammad (saas) is
Under the Protection of Allah
By the morning brightness and the night when it is still, your Lord
has not abandoned you nor does He hate you. The Last will be better
for you than the First. Your Lord will soon give to you and you will be
satisfied. Did He not find you orphaned and shelter you? Did He not
find you wandering and guide you? Did He not find you impover-
ished and enrich you? (Surat ad-Duha, 1-8)
Allah Enriches the Prophet Muhammad (saas)
Did He not find you impoverished and enrich you? (Surat ad-Duha, 8)
The Prophet Muhammad (saas) is Preferable
to Believers Over Their Own Selves
It was not for people of Madina, and the desert arabs around them,
to remain behind the Messenger of Allah nor to prefer themselves to
him. That is because no thirst or weariness or hunger will afflict them
in the Way of Allah, nor will they take a single step to infuriate the dis-
believers, nor secure any gain from the enemy, without a right action
