Corrupt women are for corrupt men and corrupt men are for
corrupt women, Good women are for good men and good men
are for good women. The latter are innocent of what they say. They
will have forgiveness and generous provision. (Qur'an, 24:26)
The men and women who give charity and make a good loan to
Allah will have it increased for them and they will have a generous
reward. (Qur'an, 57:18)
Men and women who are Muslims, men and women who are
believers, men and women who are obedient, men and women
who are truthful, men and women who are steadfast, men and
women who are humble, men and women who give charity, men
and women who fast, men and women who guard their private
parts, men and women who remember Allah much: Allah has
prepared forgiveness for them and an immense reward. When
Allah and His Messenger have decided something it is not for any
man or woman of the believers to have a choice about it. Anyone
who disobeys Allah and His Messenger is clearly misguided.
(Qur'an, 33:35-36)
On the Day you see the men and women of the believers, with
their light streaming out in front of them, and to their right: 'Good
news for you today of Gardens with rivers flowing under them,
remaining in them timelessly, for ever.That is the Great Victory.'
(Qur'an, 57:12)
Whoever does an evil act will only be repaid with its equivalent.
But whoever acts rightly, male or female, being a believer, such a
person will enter the Garden, provided for in it without any
reckoning. (Qur'an, 40:40)
My Lord! Forgive me and my parents and all who enter my house
as believers, and all the men and women of the believers. But do
not increase the wrongdoers except in ruin!' (Qur'an, 71:28)
