HE LOVES THE BELIEVERS
           Do not ever stand in it (such a mosque). A mosque founded on
           performing one's duty from the very first day has a greater right
           for you to stand in it. In it there are men who love to purify
           themselves. Allah loves those who purify themselves. (Qur'an,
           9:108)
           You who believe! If any of you renounce your religion, Allah will
           bring forward a people whom He loves and who love Him, humble
           to the believers, fierce to the unbelievers, who strive in the Way of
           Allah and do not fear the blame of any censurer. That is the
           unbounded favour of Allah which He gives to whoever He wills.
           Allah is Boundless, All-Knowing. (Qur'an, 5:54)
           HE GIVES SERENITY AND
           SAFETY TO THE HEARTS OF THE BELIEVERS
           It is He Who sent down serenity into the hearts of the believers
           thereby increasing their faith with more faith—the legions of the
           heavens and the earth belong to Allah. Allah is All-Knowing, All-
           Wise. (Qur'an, 48:4)
           Allah was pleased with the believers when they pledged allegiance
           to you under the tree. He knew what was in their hearts, and sent
           down serenity to them and has rewarded them with an imminent
           victory. (Qur'an, 48:18)
           And when He overcame you with sleep, making you feel secure,
           and sent you down water from heaven to purify you and remove
           the taint of satan from you, and to fortify your hearts and make
           your feet firm. (Qur'an, 8:11)
           If you do not help him, Allah did help him when the unbelievers
           drove him out and there were two of them in the Cave. He said to
           his companion, 'Do not be despondent, Allah is with us.' Then
           Allah sent down His serenity upon him and reinforced him with
           troops you could not see. He made the word of those who did not
           believe undermost. It is the word of Allah which is uppermost.
           Allah is Almighty, All-Wise. (Qur'an, 9:40)
