ANSWERS FROM THE QUR'AN
                         TO THE QUESTIONS
                          THE UNBELIEVERS
                        ASK THE BELIEVERS


            ABOUT ALLAH
            Pharaoh said, 'What is the Lord of all the worlds?' He said, 'The
            Lord of the heavens and the earth and everything between them
            if you knew for sure.' (Qur'an, 26:23-24)
            Allah is not ashamed to make an example of a gnat or of an even
            smaller thing. As for those who believe, they know it is the truth
            from their Lord. But as for those who do not believe, they say,
            'What does Allah mean by this example?' He misguides many by
            it and guides many by it. But He only misguides the deviators.
            (Qur'an, 2:26)
            They said, 'Have you brought us the truth or are you playing
            games?' He said, 'Far from it! Your Lord is the Lord of the heavens
            and the earth, He Who brought them into being. I am one of those
            who bear witness to that. (Qur'an, 21:55-56)

            ABOUT RELIGION, THE QUR'AN AND THE PROPHET
            They ask, 'Why has no Sign been sent down to him from his Lord?'
            Say, 'Allah has the power to send down a Sign.' But most of them
            do not know it. (Qur'an, 6:37)
            Those who do not believe say of those who believe, 'If there was
            any good in it, they would not have beaten us to it.' And since
            they have not been guided by it, they are bound to say, 'This is an
            antiquated falsehood.' But before it there was the Book of Musa as
            a model and a mercy. And this is a corroborating Book in the Arabic
            tongue so that you may warn those who do wrong, and as good
            news for the good-doers. (Qur'an, 46:11-12)
