Say: 'Mankind! The truth has come to you from your Lord.
Whoever is guided is only guided for his own good. Whoever is
misguided is only misguided to his detriment. I have not been set
over you as a guardian.' (Qur'an, 10:108)

THEY ARE NOT OVERWHELMED
BY THEIR RAGE
Those who give in times of both ease and hardship, those who
control their rage and pardon other people—Allah loves the good-
doers. (Qur'an, 3:134)
Those who avoid major wrong actions and indecencies and who,
when they are angered, then forgive; (Qur'an, 42:37)

THEY DO NOT DRAW BACK
FROM SPEAKING THE TRUTH
It is a Book sent down to you—so let there be no constriction in
your breast because of it—so that you can give warning by it and
as a reminder to the believers. (Qur'an, 7:2)
You who believe! If any of you renounce your religion, Allah will
bring forward a people whom He loves and who love Him, humble
to the believers, fierce to the unbelievers, who strive in the Way of
Allah and do not fear the blame of any censurer. That is the
unbounded favour of Allah which He gives to whoever He wills.
Allah is Boundless, All-Knowing. (Qur'an, 5:54)
O Messenger! Transmit what has been sent down to you from your
Lord. If you do not do it you will not have transmitted His
Message. Allah will protect you from people. Allah does not guide
the people of the unbelievers. (Qur'an, 5:67)
