P. 93
Alif, Lam, Ra. This is a Book We have sent down to you so that
you can bring mankind from the darkness to the light, by the
permission of their Lord, to the Path of the Almighty, the
Praiseworthy. (Qur'an, 14:1)
This (the Qur'an) is a communication to be transmitted to mankind
so that they may be warned by it and so that they will know that
He is One God and so that people of intelligence will pay heed.
(Qur'an, 14:52)
We have only sent down the Book to you so that you can make
clear to them the things about which they differ, and as a guidance
and a mercy to people who believe. (Qur'an, 16:64)
We did not send down the Qur'an to you to make you miserable,
but only as a reminder for those who have fear. (Qur'an, 20:2-3)
Say: 'What thing is greatest as a witness?' Say: 'Allah. He is Witness
between me and you. This Qur'an has been revealed to me so that
I may warn you by it, and anyone else it reaches. Do you then bear
witness that there are other gods together with Allah?' Say: 'I do
not bear witness.' Say: 'He is only One God, and I am free of all you
associate with Him.' (Qur'an, 6:19)
It is (a) straight (Book), to warn of violent force direct from Him,
and to give the good news to the believers, those who do right
actions, that for them there is an excellent reward. (Qur'an, 18:2)
(The Qur'an is revealed) so that you may warn those who are truly
alive and so that the Word may be carried out against the
unbelievers. (Qur'an, 36:70)
Those are the Signs of the Wise Book–guidance and mercy for the
good-doers. (Qur'an, 31:2-3)
(We have sent those) who brought Clear Signs and Revealed Books.
And We have sent down the Reminder to you so that you can
make clear to mankind what has been sent down to them so that
hopefully they will reflect. (Qur'an, 16:44)
