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)
