THOSE WHO ARE TRULY FAITHFUL
ARE FEW IN NUMBER
But most people, for all your eagerness, are not believers. (Qur'an,
12:103)
Alif Lam Mim Ra. Those are the Signs of the Book. And what has
been sent down to you from your Lord is the Truth. But most
people have no faith. (Qur'an, 13:1)
Most of them do not believe in Allah without associating others
with Him. (Qur'an, 12:106)
They swear by Allah with their most earnest oaths that Allah will
not raise up those who die, when, on the contrary, it is a binding
promise on Him; but most people do not know it. (Qur'an, 16:38)
That is Allah's promise. Allah does not break His promise. But
most people do not know it. (Qur'an, 30:6)
So set your face firmly towards the Religion, as a pure natural
believer, Allah's natural pattern on which He made mankind.
There is no changing Allah's creation. That is the true Religion—
but most people do not know it. (Qur'an, 30:30)
The creation of the heavens and earth is far greater than the
creation of mankind. But most of mankind do not know it. The
blind and the seeing are not the same. Nor are those who believe
and do right actions the same as evildoers. What little heed they
pay! The Hour is coming—there is no doubt about it. But most of
mankind have no faith. (Qur'an, 40:57-59)
Say: 'Allah gives you life, then causes you to die, and then will
gather you together for the Day of Rising about which there is no
doubt. But most people do not know it.' (Qur'an, 45:26)
ALL THE PROPHETS HAVE CALLED
PEOPLE TO THE RELIGION OF TRUTH
Ibrahim was neither a Jew nor a Christian. But a man of pure
natural belief—a Muslim. He was not one of the idolaters. (Qur'an,
3:67)
