LIVING IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE QUR'AN

And thus We established Yusuf in the land so he could live in any
place he pleased. We grant Our grace to anyone We will and We do
not allow to go to waste the wage of any people who do good.
(Surah Yusuf, 56)

They said, ‘Are you Yusuf?’ He said, ‘I am indeed Yusuf, and this
here is my brother. God has acted graciously to us. As for those who
fear God and are steadfast, God does not allow to go to waste the
wage of any people who do good.’ (Surah Yusuf, 90)
(People of intelligence are) those who are steadfast in seeking the face
of their Lord, and perform prayer and give from the provision We

have given them, secretly and openly, and stave off evil with good, it
is they who will have the Ultimate Abode. (Surat ar-Ra`d, 22)
Be patient. But your patience is only by God. Do not be grieved by
them and do not be constricted by the plots they hatch. God is with
those who have fear of Him and with those who are good-doers.
(Surat an-Nahl, 127-128)
If you do good, you do it to yourselves. If you do evil, you do it to
your detriment…(Surat al-Isra’, 7)

Those who perform good actions will receive better than them
and will be safe that Day from terror. Those who perform bad
actions will be flung head first into the Fire: ‘Are you being repaid
for anything other than what you did?’ (Surat an-Naml, 89-90)
And when he reached his full strength and maturity, We gave him

judgement and knowledge. That is how We recompense good-
doers. (Surat al-Qasas, 14)
They will be given their reward twice over because they have been
steadfast and because they ward off the bad with the good and give
from what we have provided for them. (Surat al-Qasas, 54)
