By it, Allah guides those who follow what pleases Him to the ways
            of Peace. He will bring them from the darkness to the light by His
            permission, and guide them to a straight path. (Qur'an, 5:16)
            That is Allah's guidance. He guides by it those of His servants He
            wills. If they had associated others with Him, nothing they did
            would have been of any use. (Qur'an, 6:88)
            No self can believe except with Allah's permission. He places a
            blight on those who do not use their intellect. (Qur'an, 10:100)
            He (Musa) said, 'Our Lord is He Who gives each thing its created
            form and then guides it.' (Qur'an, 20:50)
            Even if there was a Qur'an which moved mountains, or split the
            earth open or spoke to the dead...! On the contrary! The affair is
            Allah's altogether. Do those who believe not know that if Allah
            had wanted to He could have guided all mankind? Those who do
            not believe will not cease to be struck by disaster for what they
            have done--or a disaster will happen close to their homes--until
            Allah's promise is fulfilled. Allah will not fail to keep His promise.
            Qur'an, 13:31)
            We said, 'Go down from it, every one of you! Then when guidance
            comes to you from Me, those who follow My guidance will feel no
            fear and will know no sorrow.' (Qur'an, 2:38)
            Those who do not believe say, 'Why has a Sign not been sent down
            to him from his Lord?' Say: 'Allah misguides whoever He wills
            and guides to Himself all who turn to Him. (Qur'an, 13:27)
            Did He not find you wandering and guide you? (Qur'an, 93:7)
            He increases in guidance those who are already guided and gives
            them their sense of duty. (Qur'an, 47:17)
            Accordingly We have revealed to you a Spirit by Our command.
            You had no idea of what the Book was, nor faith. Nonetheless We
            have made it a Light by which We guide those of Our servants We
            will. Truly you are guiding to a Straight Path. (Qur'an, 42:52)
