P. 180
You are the best nation ever to be produced before mankind. You
enjoin the right, forbid the wrong and believe in Allah. If the People
of the Book were to believe, it would be better for them. Some of
them are believers but most of them are deviators. They will not
harm you except with abusive words. If they fight you, they will
turn their backs on you. Then they will not be helped. (Qur'an,
3:110-111)
You who believe! You are only responsible for yourselves. The
misguided cannot harm you as long as you are guided. All of you
will return to Allah and He will inform you about what you were
doing. (Qur'an, 5:105)
THEY SPEAK THAT WHICH IS BEST
Who could say anything better than someone who summons to
Allah and acts rightly and says, 'I am one of the Muslims'? (Qur'an,
41:33)
Do you do not see how Allah makes a metaphor of a good word:
a good tree whose roots are firm and whose branches are in
heaven? (Qur'an, 14:24)
It bears fruit regularly by its Lord's permission. Allah makes
metaphors for people so that hopefully they will pay heed.
(Qur'an, 14:25)
