Righteousness

It is not righteousness that ye turn your faces towards East or West (in prayers);

but it is righteousness ―

to believe in Allah

and the Last Day

and the Angels

and the Book

and the Messengers;

to spend of your substance out of love for Him,

for your kin, for orphans for the needy,

for the wayfarer for those who ask and for the ransom of slaves;

to be steadfast in prayer and practise regular charity;

to fulfil the contracts which ye have made;

and to be firm and patient in pain (or suffering)

and adversity and throughout all periods of panic.

Such are the people of truth the Allah-fearing. (177)

Quran: Chapter Al-Baqara (2), Verse 177.

We have sent down to thee manifest signs (ayat); and none reject them but those who are perverse.

Say: Whoever is an enemy to Gabriel-for he brings down the (revelation) to thy heart by Allah's will, a confirmation of what went before and guidance and glad tidings for those who believe.― (97)
Whoever is an enemy to Allah and His angels and prophets to Gabriel and Michael-Lo! Allah is an enemy to those who reject faith. (98) We have sent down to thee manifest signs (ayat); and none reject them but those who are perverse. (99)
Is it not (the case) that every time they make a Covenant some party among them throw it aside? - Nay most of them are faithless. (100)
And when came to them an Messenger from Allah, confirming what was with them, a party of the people of the Book threw away the Book of Allah behind their backs, as if (it had been something) they did not know! (101)

Quran: Chapter Al-Baqara (2), Verses 97-101

Verily, those who say: "Our Lord is (only) Allâh," and thereafter stand firm on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve.

And before this was the Scripture of Mûsâ (Moses) as a guide and a mercy. And this is a confirming Book (the Qur’ân) in the Arabic language, to warn those who do wrong, and as glad tidings to the Muhsinûn good-doers. (12)

Verily, those who say: "Our Lord is (only) Allâh," and thereafter stand firm (on the Islâmic Faith of Monotheism) on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve. (13)

Quran: Chapter Al-Ahqaf (46), Verses 12 & 13.

Now indeed, you have come to Us as We created you the first time. Nay, but you thought that We had appointed no meeting for you (with Us).

And (remember) the Day We shall cause the mountains to pass away (like clouds of dust), and you will see the earth as a levelled plain, and we shall gather them all together so as to leave not one of them behind. (47)

And they will be set before your Lord in (lines as) rows, (and Allâh will say): "Now indeed, you have come to Us as We created you the first time. Nay, but you thought that We had appointed no meeting for you (with Us)." (48)

And the Book (one's Record) will be placed (in the right hand for a believer in the Oneness of Allâh, and in the left hand for a disbeliever in the Oneness of Allâh), and you will see the Mujrimûn (criminals, polytheists, sinners), fearful of that which is (recorded) therein. They will say: "Woe to us! What sort of Book is this that leaves neither a small thing nor a big thing, but has recorded it with numbers!" And they will find all that they did, placed before them, and your Lord treats no one with injustice. (49)


Quran: Chapter Al-Kahf (18), Verses 47-49

This is the Book; in it is guidance sure, without doubt, to those who fear Allah.

In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
Alif Lam Mim. (1)

This is the Book; in it is guidance sure, without doubt, to those who fear Allah. (2)

Who believe in the Unseen, are steadfast in prayer, and spend out of what We have provided for them. (3)

And who believe in the Revelation sent to thee, and sent before thy time, and (in their hearts) have the assurance of the Hereafter. (4)

They are on (true guidance), from their Lord and it is these who will prosper. (5)

Quran: Chapter Al-Baqara (2), Verses 1-5

This Qur'an is not such as can be produced by other than Allah... ― wherein there is no doubt from the Lord of the Worlds.

This Qur'an is not such as can be produced by other than Allah; on the contrary it is a confirmation of (revelations) that went before it, and a fuller explanation of the Book― wherein there is no doubt from the Lord of the Worlds. (37) Or do they say "He forged it"? Say: "Bring then a Surah like unto it, and call (to your aid) anyone you can, besides Allah, if it be ye speak the truth!" (38)

Quran: Chapter Yunus (10) - Verses 37-38

That this is indeed a Qur'an most honourable

Furthermore I call to witness the setting of the Stars― (75) And that is indeed a mighty adjuration if ye but knew― (76) That this is indeed a Qur'an most honourable, (77) In a Book well-guarded, (78) Which none shall touch but those who are clean: (79) A Revelation from the Lord of the Worlds.
