Have you thought about the fire that you light? Is it you who make
the trees that fuel it grow or are We the Grower? (Qur'an, 56:71-72)
Does he imagine that no one has power over him? He says, 'I have
consumed vast quantities of wealth.' Does he imagine that no one
has seen him? Have We not given him two eyes, and a tongue and
two lips (Qur'an, 90:5-9)
Would We make the Muslims the same as the evildoers? What is
the matter with you? On what basis do you judge? Or do you have
a Book which you study, so that you may have anything in it you
choose? Or do you have oaths which bind Us, extending to the
Day of Rising, that you will have whatever you decide? Ask them
which of them stands as guarantor for that! Or do they have Divine
partners? Then let them produce their partners if they are telling
the truth! (Qur'an, 68:35-41)
If you ask them, 'Who created the heavens and the earth and made
the sun and moon subservient?' they will say, 'Allah.' So how have
they been perverted? (Qur'an, 29:61)
And how is it with you that you do not give in the Way of Allah,
when the inheritance of the heavens and the earth belongs to
Allah? Those of you who gave and fought before the Victory are
not the same as those who gave and fought afterwards. They are
higher in rank. But to each of them Allah has promised the Best.
Allah is aware of what you do. (Qur'an, 57:10)
Does not man recall that We created him before when he was not
anything? (Qur'an, 19:67)
You have known the first formation, so will you not pay heed?
(Qur'an, 56:62)
Say: 'What do you think? If, one morning, your water disappears
into the earth who will bring you running water?' (Qur'an, 67:30)
Those who adulterate Our Signs are not concealed from Us. Who
is better—someone who will be thrown into the fire or someone
who will arrive in safety on the Day of Rising? Do what you like.
He sees whatever you do. (Qur'an, 41:40)
