Before them We put Pharaoh's people to the test when a noble
Messenger came to them, saying 'Hand over to me the servants of
Allah. I am a trustworthy Messenger to you'. (Qur'an, 44:17-18)
The ruling circle of those of his people who did not believe said,
'We consider you a fool and think you are a liar.' He said, 'My
people, I am by no means a fool, but rather am a Messenger from
the Lord of all the worlds, transmitting my Lord's Message to you,
and I am a faithful counsellor to you. (Qur'an, 7:66-68)
A messenger) possessing great strength, securely placed with the
Lord of the Throne, obeyed there, trustworthy. (Qur'an, 81:20-21)

HE IS UNDER THE PRESERVATION OF ALLAH
They are people who listen to lies and consume ill-gotten gains.
If they come to you, you can either judge between them or turn
away from them. If you turn away from them, they cannot harm
you in any way. But if you do judge, judge between them justly.
Allah loves the just. (Qur'an, 5:42)
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! Remember Allah's blessing to you when forces
came against you and We sent a wind against them and other
forces you could not see. Allah sees what you do. (Qur'an, 33:9)
Those who anticipate the worst for you say, 'Were we not with
you?' whenever you gain a victory from Allah, but if the
unbelievers have a success they say, 'Did we not have the upper
hand over you and yet in spite of that keep the believers away
from you?' Allah will judge between you on the Day of Rising.
Allah will not give the unbelievers any way against the believers.
(Qur'an, 4:141)
