LIVING IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE QUR'AN


             his family–except an old woman among those who stayed behind.
             (Surat as-Saffat, 133-135)
             God will give security those who guarded against evil in their vic-

             torious Safe Haven. No evil will touch them and they will know no
             sorrow. (Surat az-Zumar, 61)
             As for Thamud, We guided them, but they preferred blindness to
             guidance. So the lightning-bolt of the punishment of humiliation
             seized them on account of what they earned. And We saved those
             who believed and were mindful of God. (Surah Fussilat, 17-18)

             We rescued the tribe of Israel from the humiliating punishment,
             from Pharaoh–he was haughty, one of the profligate. (Surat ad-
             Dukhan, 30-31)
             That it is He Who enriches and Who satisfies. (Surat an-Najm, 48)
             We unleashed a sudden squall of stones against all of them, except
             the family of Lut, who We rescued before dawn. It was a blessing
             direct from Our Presence. That is how We recompense those who
             give thanks. (Surat al-Qamar, 34-35)

             Say: ‘No one can protect me from God and I will never find any
             refuge apart from Him’… (Surat al-Jinn, 22)
             So let them worship the Lord of this House; The One Who fed them
             from hunger, and protected them from fear. (Surah Quraysh, 3-4)
             Remember when We rescued you from the people of Pharaoh.

             They were inflicting an evil punishment on you–slaughtering your
             sons and letting your women live. In that there was a terrible trial
             for you from your Lord. And when We parted the sea for you and
             rescued you, and drowned the people of Pharaoh while you
             watched. (Surat al-Baqarah, 49-50)
