When their brother Hud said to them, 'Will you not guard against
evil? I am a faithful Messenger to you so have fear of Allah and
obey me. I do not ask you for any wage for it. My wage is the
responsibility of no one but the Lord of all the worlds. (Qur'an,
26:124-127)
When their brother Nuh said to them, 'Will you not guard against
evil? I am a faithful Messenger to you so have fear of Allah and
obey me. I do not ask you for any wage for it. My wage is the
responsibility of no one but the Lord of all the worlds. So have
fear of Allah and obey me.' (Qur'an, 26:106-110)
(Mine is) only transmitting from Allah and His Messages. As for
him who disobeys Allah and His Messenger, he will have the Fire
of Hell, remaining in it timelessly, for ever and ever.' (Qur'an,
72:23)
THEY NEVER WEAKEN IN THEIR FIGHT
IN THE WAY OF ALLAH
Many a Prophet has fought, when there were many thousands
with him! They did not give up in the face of what assailed them
in the Way of Allah, nor did they weaken, nor did they yield. Allah
loves the steadfast. (Qur'an, 3:146)
Do not relax in pursuit of the enemy. If you feel pain, they too are
feeling it just as you are, but you hope for something from Allah
which they cannot hope for. Allah is All-Knowing, All-Wise.
(Qur'an, 4:104)
So be steadfast. Allah's promise is true. Do not let those who have
no certainty make you impatient and shake your firmness. (Qur'an,
30:60)
Do not give up and do not be downhearted. You shall be
uppermost if you are believers. (Qur'an, 3:139)
