             better than trade or entertainment. God is the Best of Providers.’
             (Surat al-Jumah, 11)
             By men whom neither traffic nor merchandise can divert from the

             remembrance of God, nor from regular prayer, nor from the prac-
             tice of regular charity: Their (only) fear is for the Day when hearts
             and eyes will be transformed (in a world wholly new). (Surat an-
             Nur, 37)
             (Believers are) those to whom people said, ‘The people have gath-
             ered against you, so fear them.’ But that merely increased their
             faith and they said, ‘God is enough for us and the best of

             guardians.’ (Surah Al ‘Imran, 173)
             The magicians threw themselves down in prostration. They said,
             ‘We believe in the Lord of Harun and Musa.’ Pharaoh said, ‘Do you
             believe in him before I have authorised you? He is your chief, the
             one who taught you magic. I will cut off your hands and feet alter-
             nately and have you crucified on palm trunks. Then you will know
             for certain which of us has the harsher and longer lasting punish-
             ment.’ They (magicians) said (to Pharaoh), ‘We will never prefer

             you to the clear signs which have come to us nor to Him Who
             brought us into being. Decide on any judgment you like. Your
             jurisdiction only covers the life of this world.’ (The magicians said
             to Pharaoh,) ‘We have believed in our Lord so that He may forgive
             us for our mistakes and for the magic which you forced us to per-
             form. God is better and longer lasting.’ (Surah Ta Ha, 70-73)


             AVOIDING HASTINESS
             Man is a creature of haste: soon (enough) will I show you My Signs;

             do not ask Me to hasten them! (Surat al-Anbiya’, 37)
