               Allah points out that success does not
               depend upon a group's size:

                   How many a small force has triumphed over
                   a much greater one by Allah's permission!
                   Allah is with the steadfast. (Surat al-Baqara: 249)
                   A union of Muslims based on faith and devotion will
               provide them with the necessary enthusiasm and willpower
               for great success.

                   In another verse, Allah reveals that although the deniers ap-

                   people who do not use their intellect. (Surat al-Hashr: 14)
                   Irrespective of how solid a union appears to be, it is in fact
               very unstable if it is not built on sincerity and genuine intentions,
               for this means that it is based only on various interests. And,

               when any of these interests is threatened, the union will fall apart
               quickly. Since Allah has revealed this secret in the Qur'an, the
               Muslims' union is not shaken by worldly losses; rather, it
               is strengthened. This awareness makes the union
