My servants, you who believe, My earth is wide, so worship Me
            alone! (Qur'an, 29:56)
            Those to whom We gave the Book rejoice at what has been sent
            down to you but some of the parties refuse to acknowledge part
            of it. Say: 'I have only been ordered to worship Allah and not to
            associate anything with Him. I summon to Him and to Him I will
            return.' (Qur'an, 13:36)

            NOT TO SET UP ANY GOD OTHER
            THAN ALLAH
            Do not call on any other god along with Allah. There is no god
            but Him. All things are passing except His Face. Judgement
            belongs to Him. You will be returned to Him. (Qur'an, 28:88)
            Do not set up any other god together with Allah and so sit there
            reviled and forsaken. (Qur'an, 17:22)
            That is part of the wisdom your Lord has revealed to you. Do not
            set up another god together with Allah and so be thrown into Hell,
            blamed and driven out. (Qur'an, 17:39)
            Do not set up another god together with Allah. Truly I bring you
            a clear warning from Him. (Qur'an, 51:51)

            NOT TO ACT LIKE UNBELIEVERS
            DESPITE ONE'S CERTAINTY OF ALLAH
            If you asked them who created them, they would say, 'Allah!' So
            how have they been perverted?  (Qur'an, 43:87)

            TO FEAR ALLAH ALONE
            O mankind! Have fear of your Lord Who created you from a single
            self and created its mate from it and then disseminated many men
            and women from the two of them. Have fear of Allah in Whose
            name you make demands on one another and also in respect of
            your families. Allah watches over you continually. (Qur'an, 4:1)
            It was only satan frightening you through his friends. But do not
            fear them—fear Me if you are believers. (Qur'an, 3:175)
