P. 121
The believers are those whose hearts tremble when Allah is
mentioned, whose faith is increased when His Signs are recited
to them, and who put their trust in their Lord; (Qur'an, 8:2)
Allah has sent down the Supreme Discourse, a Book consistent in
its frequent repetitions. The skins of those who fear their Lord
tremble at it and then their skins and hearts yield softly to the
remembrance of Allah. That is Allah's guidance by which He
guides whoever He wills. And no one can guide those whom Allah
misguides. (Qur'an, 39:23)
Whose hearts quake at the mention of Allah, and who are steadfast
in the face of all that happens to them, those who perform prayer
and give of what We have provided for them. (Qur'an, 22:35)
THEY NEVER DISPLAY
INGRATITUDE TOWARDS ALLAH
He who possessed knowledge of the Book said, 'I will bring it to
you before your glance returns to you.' And when he (Sulayman)
saw it standing firmly in his presence, he said, 'This is part of my
Lord's favour to test me to see if I will give thanks or show
ingratitude. Whoever gives thanks only does so to his own gain.
Whoever is ungrateful, my Lord is Rich Beyond Need, Generous.'
(Qur'an, 27:40)
THEY BELIEVE IN THE DAY
OF RESURRECTION WITH CERTAINTY
Those who fear their Lord in the Unseen and are apprehensive
about the Hour. (Qur'an, 21:49)
Accordingly We have revealed to you an Arabic Qur'an so that
you may warn the Mother of Cities (people of Makka) and those
around it, and give warning of the Day of Gathering about which
there is no doubt: one group in the Garden, the other in the Blazing
Fire. (Qur'an, 42:7)
