your faces towards it. Those given the Book know it is the truth from
their Lord. Allah is not unaware of what they do. (Surat al-Baqara, 144)

righteous. (Surat al-An'am, 85)

Communication of the Prophet Ilyas (as)
When he said to his people, 'Will you not guard against evil? Do you
call on Baal and abandon the Best of Creators? Allah is your Lord and
Lord of your forefathers, the previous peoples,' they denied him and

vants. We left the later people saying of him, 'Peace be upon the family
of Yasin!' That is how We recompense good-doers. (Surat as-Saffat,
124-131)
