LIVING IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE QUR'AN


             worship Me and perform prayer to remember Me.’ (Surah Ta Ha, 14)
             And worship your Lord until what is Certain comes to you. (Surat
             al-Hijr, 99)

             Say: ‘I am only a human being like yourselves. It is revealed to me
             that your god is One God. So let him who hopes to meet his Lord
             act rightly and not associate anyone in the worship of his Lord.’
             (Surat al-Kahf, 110)
             Or were you present when death came to Ya‘qub and he said to his
             sons, ‘What will you worship when I have gone?’ They said, ‘We will

             worship your God, the God of your forefathers, Ibrahim, Isma‘il
             and Ishaq–one God. We are Muslims submitted to Him.’ (Surat al-
             Baqarah, 133)
             Say: ‘Mankind! If you are in any doubt about my religion, I do not
             worship those you worship besides God. Rather I worship God
             Who will take you back to Him and I am commanded to be one of
             the believers.’ (Surah Yunus, 104)
             God has promised those of you who believe and do right actions

             that He will make them successors in the land as He made those
             before them successors, and will firmly establish for them their reli-
             gion with which He is pleased and give them, in place of their fear,
             security. ‘They worship Me, not associating anything with Me.’ Any
             who disbelieve after that, such people are deviators. (Surat an-Nur,
             55)

             You who believe! Bow and prostrate and worship your Lord, and
             do good, so that hopefully you will be successful. (Surat al-Hajj, 77)
             We made them leaders, guiding by Our command, and revealed to
             them how to do good actions and perform prayer and give the alms,
             and they worshipped Us. (Surat al-Anbiya’, 73)
