And remember when two of your clans were on the point of losing
heart and Allah was their Protector. Let the believers put their
trust in Allah. (Qur'an, 3:122)
Praise be to Allah, the Lord of all the worlds, the All-Merciful, the
Most Merciful, the King of the Day of Judgement. You alone we
worship. You alone we ask for help. (Qur'an, 1:1-4)
Say: 'My Lord, make my entry sincere and make my leaving sincere
and grant me supporting authority direct from Your Presence.'
(Qur'an, 17:80)
Allah does not impose on any self any more than it can stand. For
it is what it has earned; against it, what it has merited. Our Lord,
do not take us to task if we forget or make a mistake! Our Lord, do
not place on us a load like the one You placed on those before us!
Our Lord, do not place on us a load we have not the strength to
bear! And pardon us; and forgive us; and have mercy on us. You
are our Master, so help us against the people of the unbelievers.
(Qur'an, 2:286)
Musa said to his people, 'Seek help in Allah and be steadfast. The
earth belongs to Allah. He bequeathes it to any of His servants He
wills. The successful outcome is for those who guard against evil.'
(Qur'an, 7:128)
They then produced his shirt with false blood on it. He said, 'It is
merely that your lower selves have suggested something to you
which you did; but beauty lies in showing steadfastness. It is
Allah alone Who is my Help in face of the event that you describe.'
(Qur'an, 12:18)
THEY REPEATEDLY REMEMBER ALLAH
(There are men who are) not distracted by trade or commerce from
the remembrance of Allah and the performance of prayer and the
giving of alms; fearing a day when all hearts and eyes will be in
turmoil. (Qur'an, 24:37)
