Proprieties in the Qur'an                307


          that would be a dreadful thing in Allah's sight. (Surat al-Ahzab, 53)


           BELIEVERS' TREATMENT OF THEIR GUESTS
           When they entered his dwelling and said, 'Peace!'he said, 'Peace, to
          people we do not know.' So he slipped off to his household and
          brought a fattened calf. (Surat adh-Dhariyat, 25-26)


           SPEAKING IN THE PRESENCE OF THE PROPHET
           You who believe! Do not raise your voices above the voice of the
          Prophet and do not be as loud when speaking to him as you are when
          speaking to one another, lest your actions should come to nothing
          without your realising it. Those who lower their voices when they are
          with the Messenger of Allah are people whose hearts Allah has tested
          for heedfulness. They will have forgiveness and an immense reward.
          As for those who call out to you from outside your private quarters,
          most of them do not use their intellect. (Surat al-Hujurat, 2-4)
