DEVOUTNESS
Do you order people to devoutness and forget yourselves, when you recite
the Book? Will you not use your intellect? (2:44)
It is not devoutness to turn your faces to the East or to the West. Rather,
those with true devoutness are those who believe in Allah and the Last
Day, the Angels, the Book and the Prophets, and who, despite their love
for it, give away their wealth to their relatives and to orphans and the
very poor, and to travellers and beggars and to set slaves free, and who
perform prayer and give the alms; those who honour their contracts when
they make them, and are steadfast in poverty and illness and in battle.
Those are the people who are true. They are the people who guard against
evil. (2:177)
They will ask you about the crescent moons. Say, 'They are set times
for mankind and for the pilgrimage.' It is not devoutness for you to enter
houses by the back. Rather devoutness is possessed by those who guard
against evil. So come to houses by their doors and have fear of Allah,
so that hopefully you will be successful. (2:189)
DHIKR (SEE REMINDER)
DHU'L-KIFL (AS)
Remember Our servants Isma'il, Al-Yasa' and Dhu'l-Kifl; each of them
was among the best of men. (38:48)
DHU'L-QARNAYN
They will ask you about Dhu'l-Qarnayn. Say: 'I will tell you something
about him.' We gave him power and authority on the earth and granted him
a way to everything. So he followed a way until he reached the setting
of the sun and found it setting in a muddy spring and found a people by
it. We said, 'Dhu'l-Qarnayn! You can either punish them or else you can
treat them with gentleness.' He said, 'As for those who do wrong, we will
punish them and then they will be returned to their Lord and He will punish
them with a dreadful punishment. But as for him who believes and acts
rightly, he will receive the best of rewards and we will issue a command,
making things easy for him.' Then he followed a way until he reached the
rising of the sun and found it rising on a people to whom We had not given
any shelter from it. Our knowledge encompasses all that happened to him.
Then he followed a path until he arrived between the two mountains where
he found a people scarcely able to understand speech. They said, 'Dhu'l-Qarnayn!
Yajuj and Majuj are causing corruption in the land. Can we, therefore,
pay tribute to you in return for your constructing a barrier between us
and them?' He said, 'The power my Lord has granted me is better than that.
Just give me a strong helping hand and I will build a solid barrier between
you and them. Bring me ingots of iron!' Then, when he had made it level
between the two high mountain-sides, he said, 'Blow!' and when he had
made it a red hot fire, he said, 'Bring me molten brass to pour over it.'
They were, therefore, unable to climb over it nor were they able to make
a breach in it. He said, 'This is a mercy from my Lord. But when my Lord's
promise comes about, He will crush it flat. The promise of my Lord is
surely true.' (18:83-98)
DIABOLIS (IBLIS)
We said to the angels, 'Prostrate to Adam!' and they prostrated, with
the exception of Diabolis. He refused and was arrogant and was one of
the disbelievers. (2:34)
We created you and then formed you and then We said to the angels, 'Prostrate
before Adam,' and they prostrated-except for Diabolis. He was not among
those who prostrated. (7:11)
Then the angels prostrated all together, every one of them-except Diabolis.
He disdained to be one of the prostrators. He said, 'Diabolis, what is
it that prevents you being among the prostrators?' He said, 'I will not
prostrate to a human being whom You have created out of dried clay formed
from fetid black mud.' He said, 'Get out from here, you are accursed.
The curse will be on you till the Day of Reckoning.' He said, 'My Lord,
grant me a reprieve until the Day they are raised again.' He said, 'You
are among the reprieved until the Day whose time is known.' He said, 'My
Lord, because You misled me, I will make things on the earth seem good
to them and I will mislead them all, every one of them, except Your servants
among them who are sincere.' He said, 'This is a Straight Path to Me.
You have no authority over any of My servants except for the misled who
follow you.' (15:30-42)
When We said to the angels, 'Prostrate yourselves to Adam!' they prostrated,
except for Diabolis. He said 'What! Am I to prostrate to one You have
created out of clay?' (17:61)
When We said to the angels, 'Prostrate yourselves to Adam,' they prostrated
with the exception of Diabolis. He was one of the jinn and wantonly deviated
from his Lord's command. Do you take him and his offspring as protectors
apart from Me when they are your enemy? How evil is the exchange the wrongdoers
make! (18:50)
When We said to the angels, 'Prostrate yourselves to Adam!' they prostrated,
with the exception of Diabolis who disdained to do it. (20:116)
They will be bundled into it head first, they and the misled, and every
one of Diabolis's regiments. (26:94-95)
Diabolis was correct in his assessment of them and they followed him,
except for a group of the believers. (34:20)
So the angels prostrated, all of them together, except for Diabolis who
was arrogant and was one of the disbelievers. (38:73-74)
He said, 'Diabolis, what prevented you prostrating to what I created
with My own Hands? Were you overcome by arrogance or are you one of the
exalted?' (38:75)
(CAUSING TO) DIE
How can you reject Allah, when you were dead and then He gave you life,
then He will make you die and then give you life again, then you will
be returned to Him? (2:28)
What about the one who argued with Ibrahim about his Lord, on the basis
that Allah had given him sovereignty? Ibrahim said, 'My Lord is He Who
gives life and causes to die.' He said, 'I too give life and cause to
die.' Ibrahim said, 'Allah makes the sun come from the East. Make it come
from the West.' And the one who was a disbeliever was dumbfounded. Allah
does not guide wrongdoing people. (2:258)
Muhammad is only a Messenger and he has been preceded by other Messengers.
If he were to die or be killed, would you turn on your heels? Those who
turn on their heels do not harm Allah in any way. Allah will recompense
the thankful. (3:144)
You who believe! Do not be like those who disbelieve and say of their
brothers, when they are going on journeys or military expeditions, 'If
they had only been with us, they would not have died or been killed,'
so that Allah can make that anguish for them in their hearts. It is Allah
Who gives life and causes to die. Allah sees what you do. (3:156)
If you are killed in the Way of Allah or if you die, forgiveness and
mercy from Allah are better than anything you can acquire. (3:157)
If you die or you are killed, it is to Allah that you will be gathered.
(3:158)
Say: 'Mankind! I am the Messenger of Allah to you all, of Him to Whom
the kingdom of the heavens and earth belongs. There is no god but Him.
He gives life and causes to die.' So believe in Allah and His Messenger,
the Ummi, who believes in Allah and His words, and follow him so that
hopefully you will be guided.' (7:158)
Allah is He to Whom the kingdom of the heavens and earth belongs. He
gives life and causes to die. You have no protector or helper besides
Allah. (9:116)
He gives life and causes to die and you will be returned to Him. (10:56)
It is We Who give life and cause to die and We are the Inheritor. (15:23)
Those who migrate in the Way of Allah and then are killed or die, Allah
will provide for them handsomely. Truly Allah is the best Provider. (22:58)
It is He Who gave you life and then will cause you to die and then will
give you life again. Man is truly ungrateful. (22:66)
It is He Who gives life and causes to die and His is the alternation
of the night and day. So will you not use your intellect? (23:80)
Allah is He Who created you, then provides for you, then will cause you
to die and then bring you back to life. Can any of your partner-gods do
any of that? Glory be to Him and may He be exalted above anything they
associate with Him! (30:40)
They will say, 'Our Lord, twice You caused us to die and twice You gave
us life. We admit our wrong actions. Is there no way out?' (40:11)
It is He Who gives life and causes to die. When He decides on something,
He just says to it, 'Be!' and it is. (40:68)
There is no god but Him-He gives life and causes to die-your Lord and
the Lord of your forefathers, the previous peoples. (44:8)
Say: 'Allah gives you life, then causes you to die, and then will gather
you together for the Day of Rising about which there is no doubt. But
most people do not know it.' (45:26)
It is We Who give life and cause to die and We are their final destination.
(50:43)
The kingdom of the heavens and the earth belongs to Him. He gives life
and causes to die. He has power over all things. (57:2)
Then He causes him to die and buries him. (80:21)
DIFFERENCE
The Jews say, 'The Christians have nothing to stand on,' and the Christians
say, 'The Jews have nothing to stand on,' yet they both recite the Book.
Those who do not know say the same as they say. Allah will judge between
them on the Day of Rising regarding the things about which they differ.
(2:113)
That is because Allah has sent down the Book with truth and those who
differ from the Book are entrenched in hostility. (2:176)
Mankind was a single community. Then Allah sent out Prophets bringing
good news and giving warning, and with them He sent down the Book with
truth to decide between people regarding their differences. Only those
who were given it differed about it, after the Clear Signs had come to
them, envying one another. Then, by His permission, Allah guided those
who believed to the truth of that about which they had differed. Allah
guides whoever He wills to a straight path. (2:213)
When Allah said, ''Isa, I will take you back and raise you up to Me and
purify you of those who disbelieve. And I will place the people who follow
you above those who disbelieve until the Day of Rising. Then you will
all return to Me, and I will judge between you regarding the things about
which you differed.' (3:55)
Do not be like those who split up and differed after the Clear Signs
came to them. They will have a terrible punishment. (3:105)
And We have sent down the Book to you with truth, confirming and conserving
the previous Books. So judge between them by what Allah has sent down
and do not follow their whims and desires deviating from the Truth that
has come to you. We have appointed a law and a practice for every one
of you. Had Allah willed, He would have made you a single community, but
He wanted to test you regarding what has come to you. So compete with
each other in doing good. Every one of you will return to Allah and He
will inform you regarding the things about which you differed. (5:48)
Say: 'Am I to desire other than Allah as Lord when He is the Lord of
all things?' What each self earns is for itself alone. No burden-bearer
can bear another's burden. Then you will return to your Lord, and He will
inform you regarding the things about which you differed. (6:164)
Mankind was only one community but then they differed, and had it not
been for a prior Word from your Lord, they would already have been judged
in respect of the differences between them. (10:19)
We settled the tribe of Israel in a noble place and gave them good things
as provision. They did not differ until knowledge came to them. Your Lord
will decide between them on the Day of Rising regarding the things about
which they differed. (10:93)
We gave Musa the Book and people differed concerning it and had it not
been for a prior Word from your Lord, it would already have been decided
between them. They are indeed in grave doubt about it. (11:110, 41:45)
If your Lord had wanted to, He would have made mankind into one community
but they persist in their differences. (11:118)
It is so that He can make clear to them the things they differed about
and so that those who disbelieved will know that they were liars. (16:39)
We have only sent down the Book to you so that you can make clear to
them the things about which they differ, and as a guidance and a mercy
to people who believe. (16:64)
Do not be like a woman who spoils the thread she has spun by unravelling
it after it is strong, by making your oaths a means of deceiving one another,
merely because one community is bigger than another. Allah is only testing
you by this. He will make clear to you on the Day of Rising the things
about which you differed. (16:92)
The Sabbath was only enjoined on those who differed about it. Your Lord
will judge between them on the Day of Rising regarding the things about
which they differed. (16:124)
The parties differed among themselves. Woe to those who disbelieve when
they are present on a terrible Day! (19:37)
Allah will judge between you on the Day of Rising regarding everything
about which you differed. (22:69)
Certainly this Qur'an narrates to the tribe of Israel most of the things
about which they differ. (27:76)
On the Day of Rising your Lord will decide between them regarding everything
about which they differed. (32:25)
Indeed is the sincere religion not Allah's alone? People who take protectors
besides Him (say), 'We only worship them so that they may bring us nearer
to Allah'. Allah will judge between them regarding the things about which
they differed. Allah does not guide anyone who is an ungrateful liar.
(39:3)
Say: 'O Allah, Originator of the heavens and the earth, Knower of the
Unseen and the Visible, You will judge between Your servants regarding
what they differed about.' (39:46)
The judgement concerning anything you differ about is Allah's concern.
That is Allah, my Lord-I have put my trust in Him and to Him I turn. (42:10)
And when 'Isa came with the Clear Signs, he said, 'I have come to you
with Wisdom and to clarify for you some of the things about which you
have differed. Therefore have fear of Allah and obey me.' (43:63)
The various factions among them differed. Woe then to those who did wrong
on account of the punishment of a painful Day! (43:65)
We made the Commandments very clear to them and they only differed after
knowledge came to them, tyrannising one other. Your Lord will decide between
them on the Day of Rising regarding the things they differed about. (45:17)
About what are they asking one another? About the momentous news: the
thing about which they differ. (78:1-3)
DIRECTION, THE (QIBLAH)
The fools among the people will ask, 'What has made them turn round from
the direction they used to face?' Say, 'Both East and West belong to Allah.
He guides whoever He wills to a straight path.' (2:142)
In this way We have made you a middlemost community, so that you may
act as witnesses against mankind and the Messenger as a witness against
you. We only appointed the direction you used to face in order to know
those who follow the Messenger from those who turn round on their heels.
Though in truth it is a very hard thing-except for those Allah has guided.
Allah would never let your faith go to waste. Allah is All-Gentle, Most
Merciful to mankind. (2:143)
We have seen you looking up into heaven, turning this way and that, so
We will turn you towards a direction which will please you. Turn your
face, therefore, towards the Sacred Mosque (Masjid al-Haram). Wherever
you all are, turn your faces towards it. Those given the Book know it
is the truth from their Lord. Allah is not unaware of what they do. (2:144)
If you were to bring every Sign to those given the Book, they still would
not follow your direction. You do not follow their direction. They do
not follow each other's direction. If you followed their whims and desires,
after the knowledge that has come to you, you would then be one of the
wrongdoers. (2:145)
Wherever you come from, turn your face to the Sacred Mosque (Masjid al-Haram).
Wherever you are, turn your faces towards it so that people will have
no argument against you-except for those among them who do wrong and then
you should not fear them but rather fear Me-and so that I can complete
My blessing to you so that hopefully you will be guided. (2:150)
DISASTER
Those who, when disaster strikes them, say, 'We belong to Allah and to
Him we will return.' (2:156)
Why is it that when a calamity happens to you, when you have already
inflicted twice as much, you say, 'How could this possibly happen?' Say,
'It has come from your own selves.' Allah has power over all things. (3:165)
How will it be when a disaster strikes them because of what they have
done, and then they come to you swearing by Allah: 'We desired nothing
but good and reconciliation'? (4:62)
Among you there are people who hang back and if you encounter a setback
then they say, 'Allah has blessed me in that I was not there with them.'
(4:72)
You who believe! When one of you is near to death and makes a will, two
just men from among you should act as witnesses; or, if you are travelling
when the misfortune of death occurs, two men who are strangers to you.
You should detain them after prayer and, if you are doubtful, they should
swear by Allah: 'We will not sell it for any price, even to a near relative,
and we will not conceal the testimony of Allah. If we did we would indeed
be wrongdoers.' (5:106)
If good happens to you it galls them. If a mishap occurs to you, they
say, 'We made our preparations in advance,' and they turn away rejoicing.
(9:50)
If a disaster had struck them because of what they had already done,
they would have said, 'Our Lord, why did You not send us a Messenger so
that we could have followed Your Signs and been believers?' (28:47)
Any disaster that strikes you is through what your own hands have earned
and He pardons much. (42:30)
No misfortune occurs except by Allah's permission. Whoever believes in
Allah-He will guide his heart. Allah has knowledge of all things. (64:11)
DISBELIEVERS (KUFFAR)
Or (their likeness is) that of a storm-cloud in the sky, full of darkness,
thunder and lightning. They put their fingers in their ears against the
thunderclaps, fearful of death. Allah encompasses the disbelievers. (2:19)
If you do not do that-and you will not do it-then fear the Fire whose
fuel is people and stones, made ready for the disbelievers. (2:24)
We said to the angels, 'Prostrate to Adam!' and they prostrated, with
the exception of Diabolis. He refused and was arrogant and was one of
the disbelievers. (2:34)
When a Book does come to them from Allah, confirming what is with them-even
though before that they were praying for victory over the disbelievers-yet
when what they recognise does come to them, they reject it. Allah's curse
is on the disbelievers. (2:89)
What an evil thing they have sold themselves for in rejecting what Allah
has sent down, outraged that Allah should send down His favour on whichever
of His servants He wills. They have brought down anger upon anger on themselves.
The disbelievers will have a humiliating punishment. (2:90)
Anyone who is the enemy of Allah and of His angels, and of His Messengers
and of Gabriel and Michael, should know that Allah is the enemy of the
disbelievers.' (2:98)
You who believe! Do not say, 'Listen to us,' say, 'Look at us,' and listen
well. The disbelievers will have a painful punishment. (2:104)
Those of the People of the Book who disbelieve and the idolaters do not
like anything good to be sent down to you from your Lord. But Allah selects
for His mercy whomever He wills. Allah's favour is truly vast. (2:105)
But as for those who disbelieve and die while they are disbelievers,
the curse of Allah is upon them and that of the angels and all mankind.
(2:161)
Kill them wherever you come across them and expel them from where they
expelled you. Corruption is worse than killing. Do not fight them in the
Sacred Mosque (Masjid al-Haram) until they fight you there. But if they
do fight you, then kill them. That is how the disbelievers should be repaid.
(2:191)
They will ask you about the Sacred Month and fighting in it. Say, 'Fighting
in it is a serious matter; but barring access to the Way of Allah and
rejecting Him and barring access to the Sacred Mosque (Masjid al-Haram)
and expelling its people from it are far more serious in the sight of
Allah. Discord is worse than killing.' They will not stop fighting you
until they make you revert from your religion, if they are able. As for
any of you who revert from their religion and die disbeliever, their actions
will come to nothing in this world and the hereafter. They are the Companions
of the Fire, remaining in it timelessly, for ever. (2:217)
When they came out against Goliath and his troops, they said, 'Our Lord,
pour down steadfastness upon us, and make our feet firm, and help us against
this disbelieving people.' (2:250)
You who believe! Give away some of what We have provided for you before
a Day arrives on which there is no trading, no close friendship and no
intercession. It is the disbelievers who are the wrongdoers. (2:254)
You who believe! Do not nullify your charity by demands for gratitude
or insulting words, like him who spends his wealth, showing off to people
and not believing in Allah and the Last Day. His likeness is that of a
smooth rock coated with soil, which, when heavy rain falls on it, is left
stripped bare. They have no power over anything they have earned. Allah
does not guide disbelieving people. (2:264)
Allah does not impose on any self any more than it can stand. For it
is what it has earned; against it, what it has brought upon itself. 'Our
Lord, do not take us to task if we forget or make a mistake! Our Lord,
do not place on us a load like the one You placed on those before us!
Our Lord, do not place on us a load we have not the strength to bear!
And pardon us; and forgive us; and have mercy on us. You are our Master,
so help us against the people of the disbelievers.' (2:286)
There was a sign for you in the two parties which met face to face, one
party fighting in the Way of Allah and the other disbelievers. You saw
them as twice their number with your own eyes. Allah reinforces with His
help whoever He wills. There is instruction in that for people of insight.
(3:13)
The believers should not take disbelievers as friends rather than believers.
Anyone who does that has nothing to do with Allah at all-unless it is
because you are afraid of them. Allah advises you to be afraid of Him.
Allah is the final destination. (3:28)
Say, 'Obey Allah and the Messenger.' Then if they turn away, Allah does
not love the disbelievers. (3:32)
As for those who disbelieve and die while they are disbelievers, the
whole earth filled with gold would not be accepted from any of them if
they were to offer it as a ransom. They will have a painful punishment.
They will have no helpers. (3:91)
Have fear of the Fire which has been prepared for the disbelievers. (3:131)
All they said was, 'Our Lord, forgive us our wrong actions and any excesses
we went to in what we did and make our feet firm and help us against these
disbelieving people.' (3:147)
As for those who are tight-fisted and direct others to be tight-fisted,
and hide the bounty Allah has given them, We have prepared a humiliating
punishment for those who disbelieve. (4:37)
When you are travelling in the land, there is nothing wrong in your shortening
your prayer if you fear that those who disbelieve may harass you. The
disbelievers are your clear-cut enemies. (4:101)
When you are with them and leading them in prayer, a group of them should
stand with you, keeping hold of their weapons. When they prostrate, the
others should guard your backs. Then the other group who have not yet
prayed should come and pray with you. They too should be careful and keep
hold of their weapons. Those who disbelieve would like you to be negligent
of your arms and equipment so that they can swoop down on you once and
for all. There is nothing wrong, if you are bothered by rain or you are
ill, in laying your weapons down; but take every precaution. Allah has
prepared a humiliating punishment for the disbelievers. (4:102)
Do those who take the disbelievers as protectors, rather than the believers,
hope to find power and strength with them? Power and strength belong entirely
to Allah. (4:139)
It has been sent down to you in the Book that when you hear Allah's Signs
being rejected and mocked at by people, you must not sit with them till
they start talking of other things. If you do you are just the same as
them. Allah will gather all the hypocrites and disbelievers into Hell.
(4:140)
Those who anticipate the worst for you say, 'Were we not with you?' whenever
you gain a victory from Allah, but if the disbelievers have a success
they say, 'Did we not have the upper hand over you and yet in spite of
that keep the believers away from you?' Allah will judge between you on
the Day of Rising. Allah will not give the disbelievers any way against
the believers. (4:141)
You who believe! Do not take the disbelievers as friends rather than
the believers. Do you want to give Allah clear proof against you? (4:144)
Such people are the true disbelievers. We have prepared a humiliating
punishment for the disbelievers. (4:151)
And because of their taking usury when they were forbidden to do it,
and because of their consuming people's wealth by wrongful means, We have
prepared for the disbelievers among them a painful punishment. (4:161)
We sent down the Torah containing guidance and light, and the Prophets
who had submitted themselves gave judgement by it for the Jews-as did
their scholars and their rabbis-by what they had been allowed to preserve
of Allah's Book to which they were witnesses. Do not be afraid of people,
be afraid of Me. And do not sell My Signs for a paltry price. Those who
do not judge by what Allah has sent down, such people are disbelievers.
(5:44)
You who believe! If any of you renounce your religion, Allah will bring
forward a people whom He loves and who love Him, humble to the believers,
fierce to the disbelievers, who strive in the Way of Allah and do not
fear the blame of any censurer. That is the unbounded favour of Allah
which He gives to whoever He wills. Allah is Boundless, All-Knowing. (5:54)
You who believe! Do not take as friends any of those who who make a mockery
and a game out of your religion among the ones who were given the Book
before you or the disbelievers. Have fear of Allah if you are believers.
(5:57)
O Messenger! Transmit what has been sent down to you from your Lord.
If you do not do it you will not have transmitted His Message. Allah will
protect you from people. Allah does not guide the people of the disbelievers.
(5:67)
Say: 'People of the Book! You have nothing to stand on until you implement
the Torah and the Gospel and what has been sent down to you from your
Lord.' What has been sent down to you from your Lord increases many of
them in insolence and disbelief. So do not waste your grief on the people
of the disbelievers. (5:68)
Is someone who was dead and whom We brought to life, supplying him with
a light by which to walk among people, the same as someone who is in utter
darkness, unable to emerge from it? That is how what they were doing is
made to seem attractive to the disbelievers. (6:122)
Who could do greater wrong than someone who invents lies against Allah
or denies His Signs? Such people's portion of the Book will catch up with
them so that when Our messengers come to them to take them in death, saying,
'Where are those you called upon besides Allah?' they will say, 'They
have forsaken us,' testifying against themselves that they were disbelievers.
(7:37)
You who believe! When you encounter those who disbelieve advancing in
massed ranks into battle, do not turn your backs on them. (8:15)
That is your reward. Allah always confounds the schemes of the disbelievers.
(8:18)
O Prophet! Spur on the believers to fight. If there are twenty of you
who are steadfast, they will overcome two hundred; and if there are a
hundred of you, they will overcome a thousand of those who disbelieve,
because they are people who do not understand. (8:65)
They desire to extinguish Allah's Light with their mouths. But Allah
refuses to do other than perfect His Light, even though the disbelievers
detest it. (9:32)
Deferring a sacred month is an increase in disbelief by which those who
have disbelieved are led astray. One year they make it profane and another
sacred to tally with the number Allah has made sacred. In that way they
profane what Allah has made sacred. Their bad actions are made to seem
good to them. Allah does not guide disbelieving people. (9:37)
Allah has promised the men and women of the hypocrites and disbelievers
the Fire of Hell, remaining in it timelessly, for ever. It will suffice
them. Allah has cursed them. They will have everlasting punishment. (9:68)
O Prophet, strive against the disbelievers and hypocrites and be harsh
with them. Their shelter will be Hell. What an evil destination! (9:73)
It was not for people of Madina, and the desert arabs around them, to
remain behind the Messenger of Allah nor to prefer themselves to him.
That is because no thirst or weariness or hunger will afflict them in
the Way of Allah, nor will they take a single step to infuriate the disbelievers,
nor secure any gain from the enemy, without a right action being written
down for them because of it. Allah does not let the wage of the good-doers
go to waste. (9:120)
(People of Musa said, 'Our Lord,) rescue us, by Your mercy, from this
disbelieving people!' (10:86)
It sailed with them through mountainous waves, and Nuh called out to
his son, who had kept himself apart, 'My son! Come on board with us. Do
not stay with the disbelievers!' (11:42)
(Yusuf's father said,) 'My sons! Seek news of Yusuf and his brother.
Do not despair of solace from Allah. No one despairs of solace from Allah
except for people who are disbelievers.' (12:87)
Then on the Day of Rising He will disgrace them, and say, 'Where are
My partner gods for whose sake you became so hostile?' Those given knowledge
will say, 'Today there is disgrace and evil for the disbelievers.' (16:27)
(We decreed for the tribe of Israel,) 'It may well be that your Lord
will have mercy on you. But if you revert to what you did, We also will
revert. We have made Hell a prison for the disbelievers.' (17:8)
Do those who disbelieve imagine that they can take My servants as protectors
instead of Me? We have prepared Hell as hospitality for the disbelievers!
(18:102)
Do you not see that We send the Satans against those who disbelieve to
goad them on? (19:83)
So do not obey the disbelievers but use this to battle against them with
all your might. (25:52)
Yet they worship instead of Allah what can neither help nor harm them.
The disbeliever is ever, against his Lord, an assistant (to Satan). (25:55)
You did not expect to be given the Book. It is nothing but a mercy from
your Lord. So do not lend support to the disbelievers. (28:86)
Those who disbelieved will find that their disbelief was against themselves.
Those who did right were making the way easy for themselves; so that He
can repay with His bounty those who believed and did right actions. He
certainly does not love the disbelievers. (30:44-45)
O Prophet! Have fear of Allah and do not obey the disbelievers and hypocrites.
Allah is All-Knowing, All-Wise. (33:1)
... We made a binding covenant with them (the Prophets), so that He would
be able to question the truthful about their truth; and He has prepared
a painful punishment for the disbelievers. (33:7-8)
Do not obey the disbelievers and hypocrites and disregard their abuse
of you. Put your trust in Allah. Allah suffices as a Protector. (33:48)
Allah has cursed the disbelievers and prepared a Searing Blaze for them.
(33:64)
It is He Who made you His representatives on the earth. So whoever disbelieves,
his disbelief is against himself. In Allah's sight, the disbelief of the
disbelievers only increases their loathsomeness; the disbelief of the
disbelievers only increases their loss. (35:39)
We did not teach him poetry nor would it be right for him. It is simply
a reminder and a clear Qur'an so that you may warn those who are truly
alive and so that the Word may be carried out against the disbelievers.
(36:69-70)
They are surprised that a warner should come to them from among themselves.
The disbelievers say, 'This is a lying magician.' (38:4)
So the angels prostrated, all of them together, except for Diabolis who
was arrogant and was one of the disbelievers. (38:73-74)
Who could do greater wrong than those who lie about Allah and deny the
truth when it comes to them? Do the disbelievers not have a dwelling place
in Hell? (39:32)
'No, the fact is that My Signs came to you but you denied them and were
arrogant and were one of the disbelievers.' (39:59)
Those who disbelieve will be driven to Hell in companies and when they
arrive there and its gates are opened its custodians will say to them,
'Did Messengers from yourselves not come to you, reciting your Lord's
Signs to you and warning you of the meeting on this Day of yours?' They
will say, 'Indeed they did, but the decree of punishment is justly carried
out against the disbelievers.' (39:71)
So your Lord's Words about those who disbelieve proved true, that they
are indeed the Companions of the Fire. (40:6)
So call upon Allah, making your religion sincerely His, even though the
disbelievers detest it. (40:14)
When he (Musa) brought them the truth from Us they said, 'Slaughter the
sons of those who believe with him but let their women live.' The stratagems
of the disbelievers are nothing but errors. (40:25)
They will ask, 'Did your Messengers not bring you the Clear Signs?' They
will answer, 'Yes.' They will say, 'Then you call!' But the calling of
the disbelievers only goes astray. (40:50)
But when they saw Our violent force their faith was of no use to them.
That is the pattern Allah has always followed with His servants. Then
and there the disbelievers were lost. (40:85)
But if We let him taste mercy from Us after he has suffered hardship,
then he says, 'This is my due. I do not think that the Hour is going to
come. And if am returned to my Lord, I will definitely find the best reward
with Him.' But We will inform those who disbelieve of what they did and
make them suffer a ruthless punishment. (41:50)
He responds to those who believe and do right actions and gives them
increase from His favour. But the disbelievers will have a harsh punishment.
(42:26)
Have they not travelled about the earth and seen the final fate of those
before them? Allah destroyed them utterly. And those who disbelieve will
suffer the same fate. (47:10)
That is because Allah is the Protector of those who believe and because
those who disbelieve have no protector. (47:11)
Whoever does not believe in Allah and His Messenger-We have prepared
a Blazing Fire for the disbelievers. (48:13)
If those who disbelieve should fight you, they would turn their backs
and then find no one to protect or help them. (48:22)
Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, and those who are with him are fierce
to the disbelievers, merciful to one another. You see them bowing and
prostrating, seeking Allah's good favour and His pleasure. Their mark
is on their faces, the traces of prostration. That is their likeness in
the Torah. And their likeness in the Gospel is that of a seed which puts
up a shoot and makes it strong so that it thickens and grows up straight
upon its stalk, filling the sowers with delight-so that by them He may
infuriate the disbelievers. Allah has promised those of them who believe
and do right actions forgiveness and an immense reward. (48:29)
Nonetheless they are amazed that a warner should have come to them from
among themselves and those who disbelieve say, 'What an extraordinary
thing!' (50:2)
They will emerge from their graves with downcast eyes, like swarming
locusts, necks outstretched, eyes transfixed, rushing headlong to the
Summoner. The disbelievers will say, 'This is a pitiless day!' (54:7-8)
Are your disbelievers better than those peoples'? Or have you been given
exemption in the Books? (54:43)
Anyone who cannot find the means must fast for two consecutive months
before the two of them may touch one another again. And anyone who is
unable to do that must feed sixty poor people. That is to affirm your
faith in Allah and His Messenger. These are Allah's limits. The disbelievers
will have a painful punishment. (58:4)
Those who oppose Allah and His Messenger will be subdued and overcome
as those before them were also subdued and overcome. We have sent down
Clear Signs. The disbelievers will have a humiliating punishment. (58:5)
You who believe! When women who believe come to you as emigrants, submit
them to a test. Allah has best knowledge of their faith. If you know they
are believers, do not return them to the disbelievers. They are not lawful
for the disbelievers nor are the disbelievers lawful for them. Give the
disbelievers whatever dowry they paid. And there is nothing wrong in your
marrying them provided you pay them their due. Do not hold to any marriage
ties with women who disbelieve. Ask for what you paid and let them ask
for what they paid. That is Allah's judgement. Allah will judge between
them. Allah is All-Knowing, All-Wise. (60:10)
If any of your wives rejoin the disbelievers, you should have compensation.
So repay to those whose wives have gone the dowry they paid out. Have
fear of Allah-Him in Whom you believe. (60:11)
You who believe! Do not make friends of people with whom Allah is angry,
who have despaired of the hereafter as the disbelievers have despaired
of the inhabitants of the graves. (60:13)
They desire to extinguish Allah's Light with their mouths but Allah will
perfect His Light, though the disbelievers hate it. (61:8)
It is He Who created you. Yet among you are those who disbelieve and
those who believe. Allah sees what you do. (64:2)
O Prophet! Strive against the disbelievers and hypocrites and be harsh
with them. Their refuge is Hell. What an evil destination! (66:9)
Who is there who could be a force for you, to come to your support, apart
from the All-Merciful? The disbelievers are only living in delusion. (67:20)
Say: 'What do you think? If Allah destroys me and those with me, or if
He has mercy on us, who can shelter the disbelievers from a painful punishment?'
(67:28)
It (the Qur'an) is a cause of great distress to those who disbelieve.
(69:50)
It (the punishment) is for the disbelievers and cannot be averted. (70:2)
Nuh said, 'My Lord! Do not leave a single one of the disbelievers on
earth! If You leave any they will misguide Your servants and spawn nothing
but more dissolute disbelievers.' (71:26-27)
That Day will be a difficult day, not easy for the disbelievers. (74:9-10)
We have only appointed angels as masters of the Fire and We have only
specified their number as a trial for those who disbelieve; so that those
who were given the Book might gain in certainty, and those who believe
might increase in their faith, and both those who were given the Book
and the believers might have no doubt; and so that those with sickness
in their hearts and the disbelievers might say, 'What did Allah intend
by this example?' In this way Allah misguides those He wills and guides
those He wills. No one knows the legions of your Lord but Him. This is
nothing but a reminder to all human beings. (74:31)
We have made ready for the disbelievers shackles and chains and a Searing
Blaze. (76:4)
We have warned you of an imminent punishment on the Day when a man will
see what he has done, and the disbeliever will say, 'Oh, if only I were
dust!' (78:40)
That Day some faces will be dust-covered, overcast with gloom. Those
are the dissolute disbelievers. (80:40-42)
So today those who believe are laughing at the disbelievers. (83:34)
Have the disbelievers been rewarded for what they did? (83:36)
So bear with the disbelievers-bear with them for a while. (86:17)
Say: 'Disbelievers! I do not worship what you worship and you do not
worship what I worship. Nor will I worship what you worship nor will you
worship what I worship. You have your religion and I have my religion.'
(109:1-6)
