to his desires. (Al-Kahf, 28)
301. Say: “This is the truth from your Lord. Let him who will, believe in it,
and him who will, deny it.” For the wrongdoers We have prepared a fire which

for them a predestined time they cannot evade. (Al-Kahf, 58)

they are still persisting in unbelief. (Maryam, 39)

fulfillment of His threats: be it a worldly scourge or the Hour of Doom. Then
shall they know whose is the worse plight and whose the smaller following.”

Ha, 2)

secret, and all that is hidden. (Ta Ha, 7)
328. Have you heard the story of Moses? (Ta Ha, 9)
329. Thus do We recount to you the history of past events. We have certainly
given you a dhikr (remembrance) from our presence. (Ta Ha, 99)
330. They ask you about the mountains. Say: “My Lord will crush them to fine
dust and reduce them to a desolate waste.” (Ta Ha, 105)
331. Thus, have We sent it down: The Koran in the Arabic tongue, and
proclaimed in it warnings and threats so that they may take heed and guard
themselves against evil. (Ta Ha, 113)
332. Exalted be Allah, the true King! Do not be quick to recite the Koran
before its revelation is completed, but rather say: “Lord, increase my
knowledge.” (Ta Ha, 114)
333. Bear with what they say. Give glory to your Lord before sunrise and
sunset. Praise Him day and night, so that you may find comfort. (Ta Ha, 130)
334. Do not regard with envy the worldly benefits. We have bestowed on some
among them, for with these We seek only to try them. Better is your Lord’s
reward, and more lasting. (Ta Ha, 131)

followed the right path and who has been rightly guided”. (Ta Ha, 135)

338. Say: “My Lord has knowledge of whatever is said in heaven and earth. He
hears all and knows all.” (Anbiya, 4)
339. Some say: “It (the Koran) is but a medley of dreams.” Others: “He has
invented it himself.” And yet others: “He is a poet: let him show us some
sign, as did the Apostles in days gone by.” (Al-Anbiya, 5)
340. The nations whom We destroyed before them did not believe either. Will
they believe? (Al-Anbiya, 6)

People of the Dhikir (Remembrance) if you do not know this. (Al-Anbiya, 7)

are the Scriptures of today and those of long ago.” But most of them do not

343. We inspired all the Apostles whom We sent before you, saying: “There is
no god but Me. Therefore serve Me.” (Al-Anbiya, 25)

into the case and bore witness to both their judgments. (Al-Anbiya, 78)

against in your wars. Will you then give thanks? (Al-Anbiya, 80)

who all endured with patience. (Al- Anbiya, 85)

serve Me! (Al-Anbiya, 92)

Him?” (Al-Anbiya, 108)

(Al-Anbiya, 111)
367. The Prophet of Allah said: “Lord, judge with fairness. Our Lord is the
Merciful, whose help We seek against your blasphemies.” (Al-Anbiya, 112)
368. Do you not see how all who dwell in heaven and earth do homage to God?
The sun and the moon and the stars, the mountains and the trees, the beasts
and countless men – all prostrate themselves before Him. Yet many have
deserved His scourge. He who is humbled by God has none to honor him. God’s
will is ever done. (Al-Hajj, 18)
369. When We prepared for Abraham the site of the Sacred Mosque (the Kaaba) We
said: “Worship none besides Me. Keep My house clean for those who walk around
it, and those who stand upright or kneel in worship.” (Al-Hajj, 26)
370. For every nation We have ordained a ritual, that they may pronounce the
name of Allah over the cattle which He has given them for food. Your God is
one God; to Him surrender yourselves. (O Muhammad!) Give good news to the
humble, respectful and sincere people. (Al-Hajj, 34)
371. They are the people whose hearts are filled with awe at the mention of
Allah, who endure adversity with fortitude, attend to their prayers, and
bestow charity of what which We have given them. (Al-Hajj, 35)
372. Their flesh and blood does not reach Allah but it is your piety that
reaches Him. Thus has He subjected them to your service, so that you may give
glory to Allah for guiding you. (O Muhammad) Give good news to the righteous.
((Al-Hajj, 37)
373. (O Muhammad) If they deny you, remember that before them to peoples of
Noah, the tribes of Thamud and Ad had denied their Apostles. (Al-Hajj, 42)
374. The people of Abraham and of Lot had denied them. (Al-Jajj, 43)
375. The dwellers of Midian had denied their Apostles, Moses was also
rejected. I bore long with the unbelievers, and then My scourge overtook them.
How dire was the way I rejected them. (Al-Hajj, 44)
376. They bid you hasten the threatened scourge. Allah will not fail His
promise. Each day of your Lord’s is like a thousand years in your reckoning.
(Al-Hajj, 47)
377. Say: “Men, I have been sent to warn you plainly.” (Al-Hajj, 49)
378. Never have We sent a single Prophet or Apostle before you with whose
wishes satan did not tamper. But Allah abrogates the interjections of satan
and confirms His own revelations. Allah is all- knowing and wise. (Al- Hajj,
52)
379. …so that those who are endowed with knowledge may realize that this is
the truth from your Lord and thus believe in it and humble their hearts
towards Him. Allah will surely guide the faithful to a straight path.
(Al-Hajj, 54)
380. Do you not see how Allah sends down water from the sky and forthwith the
earth turns green? Gracious is Allah and all-knowing. (Al-Hajj, 63)

Self-sufficient (rich), the Glorious One (deserving to be praised).
(Al-Hajj-64)
382. Do you not see how Allah subdued for you all that is in the earth? He has
given you ships which sail the sea at His bidding. He holds the sky from
falling down: this it shall not do except by His own will because
Compassionate is Allah, and merciful to men. (Al-Hajj, 65)
383. It is He who has given you life, and He who will cause you to die and
make you live again. Surely, man is ungrateful (infidel). (Al-Hajj, 66)
384. For every nation We have ordained a ritual which they observe. Let them
not dispute with you concerning this. Call them to the path of your Lord; you
are rightly guided. (Al-Hajj, 67)
385. If they argue with you, say: “God knows best all that you do.” (Al-Hajj,
68)
386. On the Day of Resurrection Allah will judge all your differences (He will
tell who is right and who is wrong). (Al-Hajj, 69)
387. Are you not aware that Allah has knowledge of what heaven and earth
contain? All is recorded in a Book. That is no difficult thing for Allah.
(Al-Hajj, 70)
388. When Our revelations are recited to them in all their clarity, you will
note denial in the faces of the unbelievers. Barely can they restrain
themselves from assaulting those who recite Our revelations. Say: “Shall I
tell you what is worse than that? The fire which Allah has promised those who
deny Him. An evil fate!” (Al-Hajj, 72)
389. Men, listen to this aphorism! Those whom you invoke besides Allah could
never create a single fly though they combined their forces. And a fly carried
away a speck of dust from them, they could never retrieve it. Powerless is the
suppliant, and powerless he whom supplicates. (Al-Hajj, 73)
390. They do not render to Allah the homage due to Him. Yet, Allah is powerful
and mighty. (Al-Hajj, 74)
391. Allah chooses His Messengers from the Angels and from Men. Allah hears
all and observes all. (Al-Hajj, 75)
392. Fight for the cause of Allah with devotion due to Him. He has chosen you,
and laid on you no burdens in the observance of your faith, the faith of
Abraham your father. In this (the Koran), as in former scriptures (the Books),
He has given you the name of “Muslims”, so that His Apostle may testify
against your fellow-men.
Therefore attend to your prayers, render the alms levy, and hold fast to
Allah; for He is your Guardian. A gracious guardian and a gracious helper!
(Al-Hajj, 78)
393. Leave them in their error till a certain time. (Al-Mu’minun, 54)
394. Do they think that, in giving them wealth and children, (Al-Mu’minun, 55)
395. We are solicitous for their welfare? By no means! They cannot see that
this (wealth and children) is an examination for them. (Al- Mu’minun, 56)
396. Or is it because they do not know their Apostle (they do not know his
honesty) that they deny him? (Al-Mu’minun, 69)
397. Do they say he is possessed? Surely he has proclaimed to them the truth.
But most of them abhor the truth. (Al-Mu’minun, 70)
398. Are you seeking a reward from them? Far better is your Lord’s recompense.
He is the most munificent Giver. (Al-Mu’minun, 72)
399. You have called them to a straight path! (Al-Mu’minun, 73)
400. Say: “Whose is the earth and all that it contains? Tell me, if you know
the truth!” (Al-Mu’minun, 84)
401. They will reply: “Allah’s”. Say: Then, will you not take heed?”
(Al-Mu’minun, 85)
402. Say (again): “Who is the Lord of the seven Heavens and the Glorious
Throne?” (Al- Mu’minun, 86)
403. “Allah” they will reply. Say: “Will you keep from evil then?”
(Al-Mu’minun, 87)
404. Say: “In whose hands is the sovereignty of all things, protecting all,
while against Him there is no protector?” (Al-Mu’minun, 88)
405. “In Allah’s” they will reply. Say: “How then can you be so bewitched?”
(Al- Mu’minun, 89)
406. Say: “Lord, if You will punish them with they are threatened.”
(Al-Mu’minun, 93)
407. “Do not abandon me, Lord, among this sinful nation!” (Al-Mu’minun, 94)
408. Indeed, We have power enough to let you see the punishment with which
they are threatened. (Al-Mu’minun, 95)
409. Requite evil with good. We are fully aware of all their slanders.
(Al-Mu’minun, 96)
410. And say: “Lord, I seek refuge in You from the prompting of the

brother’s sons, their sister’s sons, their women-servants and their slave

as to reveal their hidden trinkets. Believers, turn to Allah in repentance,
that you may prosper. (Al-Nur, 31)

When they ask you leave to go away, grant it to whomever you please and
implore Allah to forgive them; Allah is forgiving and merciful. (Al-Nur, 62)
429. Do not address the Apostle in the manner you address one another. Allah

sustenance?” And the wrongdoers say: “The man you follow (swear fealty to) is

cannot return to the true path. (Al-Furqan, 9)

but you need none besides your Lord to guide and help you. (Al-Furqan, 31)
449. The unbelievers ask: “Why was the Koran not revealed to him entire in a
