CONSCIENCE
THE BELIEVERS DEFINITELY FOLLOW
THE TRUTH THE MOMENT THEY SEE IT
We would be inventing lies against Allah if we returned to your
religion after Allah has saved us from it. We could never return to
it unless Allah our Lord so willed. Our Lord encompasses
everything in His knowledge. We have put our trust in Allah. Our
Lord, judge between us and our people with truth. You are the
best of judges.' (Qur'an, 7:89)
And He also (turned) towards the three who were left behind, so
that when the earth became narrow for them, for all its great
breadth, and their own selves became constricted for them and
they realised that there was no refuge from Allah except in Him,
He turned to them so that they might turn to Him. Allah is the
Ever-Returning, the Most Merciful. (Qur'an, 9:118)
SOME OF THE UNBELIEVERS DENY
THE TRUTH IN SPITE OF THEIR
CERTAINTY ABOUT IT
And they repudiated them wrongly and haughtily, in spite of their
own certainty about them. See the final fate of the corrupters.
(Qur'an, 27:14)
They consulted among themselves and said, 'It is you yourselves
who are wrongdoers.' But then they relapsed back into their
disbelief: 'You know full well these idols cannot talk.' (Qur'an,
21:64-65)
People of the Book! Why do you mix truth with falsehood and
knowingly conceal the truth? (Qur'an, 3:71)
