You who believe! Why do you say what you do not do? It is deeply
abhorrent to Allah that you should say what you do not do.
(Qur'an, 61:2-3)
THAT THE BELIEVERS SHOULD
NOT BE DIVIDED, BUT BE UNITED
Do not be like those who split up and differed after the Clear Signs
came to them. They will have a terrible punishment. (Qur'an,
3:105)
Hold fast to the rope of Allah all together, and do not separate.
Remember Allah's blessing to you when you were enemies and He
joined your hearts together so that you became brothers by His
blessing. You were on the very brink of a pit of the Fire and He
rescued you from it. In this way Allah makes His Signs clear to
you, so that hopefully you will be guided. (Qur'an, 3:103)
O Prophet, strive against the unbelievers and hypocrites and be
harsh with them. Their shelter will be Hell. What an evil
destination! (Qur'an, 9:73)
TO SEE THINGS WITH AN EYE
FOR GOODNESS
Say: 'Nothing can happen to us except what Allah has ordained for
us. He is Our Master. It is in Allah that the believers should put
their trust.' (Qur'an, 9:51)
NOT TO GLOAT OVER THE
PLENTY OF BLESSINGS GIVEN
Qarun was one of the people of Musa but he lorded it over them.
We gave him treasures, the keys alone to which were a heavy
weight for a party of strong men. When his people said to him,
'Do not gloat. Allah does not love people who gloat.' (Qur'an,
28:76)
