THERE IS NO GOD BUT HIM
Your God is One God. There is no god but Him, the All-Merciful,
the Most Merciful. (Qur'an, 2:163)
Allah bears witness that there is no god but Him, as do the angels
and the people of knowledge, upholding justice. There is no god
but Him, the Almighty, the All-Wise. (Qur'an, 3:18)
Allah says, 'Do not take two gods. He is only One God. So dread
Me alone." (Qur'an, 16:51)
Say: 'He is Allah, Absolute Oneness. (Qur'an, 112:1)
He is Allah. There is no god but Him. Praise be to Him in this
world and the hereafter. Judgement belongs to Him. You will be
returned to Him. (Qur'an, 28:70)
THE HEARTS ARE UNDER HIS DOMINION
Allah has sealed up their hearts and hearing and over their eyes
is a blindfold. They will have a terrible punishment. (Qur'an, 2:7)
Because of the fact that they broke their covenant, and rejected
Allah's Signs, and killed the Prophets without any right to do so
and said, 'Our hearts are uncircumcised,' Allah has stamped them
with disbelief, so they do not believe except for very few.
(Qur'an, 4:155)
Those are the people whose hearts, hearing and sight Allah has
sealed up. They are the unaware. (Qur'an, 16:108)
We have placed covers on their hearts, preventing them from
understanding it, and heaviness in their ears. When you mention
your Lord alone in the Qur'an, they turn their backs and run away.
(Qur'an, 17:46)
Or do they ask, 'Has he invented a lie about Allah?' If Allah willed,
He could seal up your heart. By His Words Allah wipes out the
false and confirms the truth. He knows what the heart contains.
(Qur'an, 42:24)
But you will not will unless Allah wills. Allah is All-Knowing, All-
Wise. (Qur'an, 76:30)
