LIVING IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE QUR'AN
advancing in massed ranks into battle, do not turn your backs on
them. (Surat al-Anfal, 15)
Those who believe in God and the Last Day do not ask you to
excuse them from striving with their wealth and themselves. God
knows the people who guard against evil. (Surat at-Tawba, 44)
Will you not fight a people who have broken their oaths and
resolved to expel the Messenger, and who initiated hostilities against
you in the first place? Is it them you fear? God has more right to
your fear if you are believers. (Surat at-Tawba, 13)
When the believers saw the Confederates they said: ‘This is what
God and His Messenger promised us. God and His Messenger told
us the truth.’ It only increased them in faith and in submission.
(Surat al-Ahzab, 22)
So be steadfast. God’s promise is true. Do not let those who have
no certainty make you impatient and shake your firmness. (Surat
ar-Rum, 60)

path for them through the sea. Have no fear of being overtaken and
do not be afraid.’ (Surah Ta Ha, 77)

you impatient and shake your firmness. (Surat ar-Rum, 60)

sides to still your fear. (Surat al-Qasas, 32)
