SOME OF THE CAUSE AND EFFECT
RELATIONSHIPS MENTIONED
IN THE QUR'AN

You who believe! If you have fear of Allah, He will give you
discrimination and erase your bad actions from you and forgive
you. Allah's favour is indeed immense. (Qur'an, 8:29)
And when your Lord announced: "If you are grateful, I will
certainly give you increase, but if you are ungrateful, My
punishment is severe."' (Qur'an, 14:7)
O Prophet! Spur on the believers to fight. If there are twenty of
you who are steadfast, they will overcome two hundred; and if
there are a hundred of you, they will overcome a thousand of those
who do not believe, because they are people who do not
understand. (Qur'an, 8:65)
He said, 'Go down from it, all of you, as enemies to one another!
But when guidance comes to you from Me, all those who follow
My guidance will not go astray and will not be miserable. (Qur'an,
20:123)
If something good happens to you, it galls them. If something bad
strikes you, they rejoice at it. But if you are steadfast and guard
against evil, their scheming will not harm you in any way. Allah
encompasses what they do. (Qur'an, 3:120)
You who believe! You are only responsible for yourselves. The
misguided cannot harm you as long as you are guided. All of you
will return to Allah and He will inform you about what you were
doing. (Qur'an, 5:105)
But if anyone turns away from My reminder, his life will be a dark
and narrow one and on the Day of Rising We will gather him
blind.' (Qur'an, 20:124)
Obey Allah and His Messenger and do not quarrel among
yourselves lest you lose heart and your momentum disappears.
And be steadfast. Allah is with the steadfast. (Qur'an, 8:46)
