LIVING IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE QUR'AN
You who believe! Obey God and obey the Messenger and those in
command among you. If you have a dispute about something, refer
it back to God and the Messenger, if you believe in God and the Last
Day. That is the best thing to do and gives the best result. (Surat an-
Nisa’, 59)
Remember God’s blessing to you and the covenant He made with
you when you said, ‘We hear and we obey.’ Have fear of God. God
knows what the heart contains. (Surat al-Ma’idah, 7)
You who believe! Obey God and His Messenger. And do not turn
away from him when you are able to hear. (Surat al-Anfal, 20)
He will put your actions right for you and forgive you your wrong
deeds. All who obey God and His Messenger have won a mighty
victory. (Surat al-Ahzab, 71)
You who believe! Obey God and obey the Messenger. Do not make
your actions of no worth. (Surah Muhammad, 33)
Obey God and obey the Messenger. But if you turn your backs, the
Messenger is only responsible for clear transmission. (Surat at-
Taghabun, 12)
REFRAINING FROM ANY TURBULENT TONE OR
BEHAVIOR AND CORRUPTION
My people! Give full measure and full weight with justice; do not
diminish people’s goods; and do not go about the earth, corrupting
it. (Surah Hud, 85)
And when Musa was looking for water for his people, We said,
‘Strike the rock with your staff.’ Then twelve fountains gushed out
from it and all the people knew their drinking place. ‘Eat and drink
of God’s provision and do not go about the earth corrupting it.’
(Surat al-Baqarah, 60)
