TABLE
And when the Disciples said, ''Isa son of Maryam! Can your Lord send
down a table to us out of heaven?' He said, 'Have fear of Allah if you
are believers!' (5:112)
'Isa son of Maryam said, 'Allah, our Lord, send down a table to us out
of heaven to be a feast for us, for the first and last of us, and as a
Sign from You. Provide for us! You are the Best of Providers!' (5:114)
TABLETS
We wrote about everything for him on the Tablets as an admonition and
making all things clear. 'Seize hold of it vigorously and command your
people to adopt the best in it. I will show you the home of the deviators!'
(7:145)
When Musa returned to his people in anger and great sorrow, he said,
'What an evil thing you did in my absence after I left! Did you want to
hasten your Lord's command?' He threw down the Tablets and seized hold
of his brother's head, dragging him towards him. Harun said, 'Son of my
mother, The people oppressed me and almost killed me. Do not give my enemies
cause to gloat over me. Do not include me with the wrongdoing people.'
(7:150)
When Musa's anger abated he picked up the Tablets and in their inscription
was guidance and mercy for all of them who feared their Lord. (7:154)
TABUK (SEE EXPEDITION TO TABUK)
TACTICS MADE AND PRECAUTIONS TAKEN DURING
THE BATTLE
You who believe! Take all necessary precautions, then go out to fight
in separate groups or go out as one body. (4:71)
You who believe! When you go out to fight in the Way of Allah verify
things carefully. Do not say, 'You are not a believer', to someone who
greets you as a Muslim, simply out of desire for the goods of this world.
With Allah there is booty in abundance. That is the way you were before
but Allah has been kind to you. So verify things carefully. Allah is aware
of what you do. (4:94)
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)
You who believe! When you encounter those who disbelieve advancing in
massed ranks into battle, do not turn your backs on them. (8:15)
Anyone who turns his back on them that day, unless he is withdrawing
to rejoin the fight or withdrawing to support another group, brings Allah's
anger down upon himself. His refuge is Hell. What an evil destination!
(8:16)
If you fear treachery on the part of a people, revoke your treaty with
them mutually. Allah does not love treacherous people. (8:58)
Arm yourselves against them with all the firepower and cavalry you can
muster, to terrify the enemies of Allah and your enemies, and others besides
them whom you do not know. Allah knows them. Anything you spend in the
Way of Allah will be repaid to you in full. You will not be wronged. (8:60)
If they incline to peace, you too incline to it, and put your trust in
Allah. He is the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing. (8:61)
If they had really desired to go out (to fight), they would have made
proper preparations for it, but Allah was averse to their setting out
so He held them back and they were told: 'Stay behind with those who stay
behind.' (9:46)
Allah has made shaded places for you in what He has created and He has
made shelters for you in the mountains and He has made shirts for you
to protect you from the heat and shirts to protect you from each other's
violence. In that way He perfects His blessing on you so that hopefully
you will become Muslims. (16:81)
We taught him the art of making garments for you to protect you against
each others' violence. But do you show any thanks? (21:80)

TALUT
Their Prophet said to them, 'Allah has appointed Talut to be your king.'
They said, 'How can he have kingship over us when we have much more right
to kingship than he does? He has not even got much wealth!' He said, 'Allah
has chosen him over you and favoured him greatly in knowledge and physical
strength. Allah gives kingship to anyone He wills. Allah is All-Encompassing,
All-Knowing.' (2:247)
Their Prophet said to them, 'The sign of his kingship is that the Ark
will come to you, containing serenity from your Lord and certain relics
left by the families of Musa and Harun. It will be borne by angels. There
is a sign for you in that if you are believers.' (2:248)
When Talut marched out with the army, he said, 'Allah will test you with
a river. Anyone who drinks from it is not with me. But anyone who does
not taste it is with me-except for him who merely scoops up a little in
his hand.' But they drank from it-except for a few of them. Then when
he and those who believed with him had crossed it, they said, 'We do not
have the strength to face Goliath and his troops today.' But those who
were sure that they were going to meet Allah said, 'How many a small force
has triumphed over a much greater one by Allah's permission! Allah is
with the steadfast.' (2:249)
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)
And with Allah's permission they routed them. Dawud killed Goliath and
Allah gave him kingship and wisdom and taught him whatever He willed.
If it were not for Allah's driving some people back by means of others,
the earth would have been corrupted. But Allah shows favour to all the
worlds. (2:251)

TEAR
That night they came back to their father in tears. (12:16)
Neither heaven nor earth shed any tears for them (Pharaoh and his troops)
and they were granted no reprieve. (44:29)
(Has he not been informed) that it is He Who brings about both laughter
and tears? (53:43)
TEST - TRIAL
Remember when We rescued you from the people of Pharaoh. They were inflicting
an evil punishment on you-slaughtering your sons and letting your women
live. In that there was a terrible trial for you from your Lord. (2:49)
They follow what the Satans recited in the reign of Sulayman. Sulayman
did not disbelieve, but the Satans did, teaching people sorcery and what
had been sent down to Harut and Marut, the two angels in Babylon, who
taught no one without first saying to him, 'We are merely a trial and
temptation, so do not disbelieve.' People learned from them how to separate
a man and his wife but they cannot harm anyone by it, except with Allah's
permission. They have learned what will harm them and will not benefit
them. They know that any who deal in it will have no share in the hereafter.
What an evil thing they have sold themselves for if they only knew! (2:102)
Remember when Ibrahim was tested by his Lord with certain words which
he carried out completely. He said, 'I will make you a model for mankind.'
He asked, 'And what of my descendants?' He said, 'My contract does not
include the wrongdoers.' (2:124)
We will test you with a certain amount of fear and hunger and loss of
wealth and life and fruits. But give good news to the steadfast. (2:155)
When Talut marched out with the army, he said, 'Allah will test you with
a river. Anyone who drinks from it is not with me. But anyone who does
not taste it is with me-except for him who merely scoops up a little in
his hand.' But they drank from it-except for a few of them. Then when
he and those who believed with him had crossed it, they said, 'We do not
have the strength to face Goliath and his troops today.' But those who
were sure that they were going to meet Allah said, 'How many a small force
has triumphed over a much greater one by Allah's permission! Allah is
with the steadfast.' (2:249)
Allah fulfilled His promise to you when you were slaughtering them by
His permission. But then you faltered, disputing the command, and disobeyed
after He showed you what you love. Among you are those who want this world
and among you are those who want the hereafter. Then He turned you from
them in order to test you-but He has pardoned you. Allah shows favour
to the believers. (3:152)
Then He sent down to you, after the distress, security, restful sleep
overtaking a group of you, whereas another group became prey to anxious
thoughts, thinking other than the truth about Allah-thoughts belonging
to the Time of Ignorance-saying, 'Do we have any say in the affair at
all?' Say, 'The affair belongs entirely to Allah.' They are concealing
things inside themselves which they do not disclose to you, saying, 'If
we had only had a say in the affair, none of us would have been killed
here in this place.' Say, 'Even if you had been inside your homes, those
people for whom killing was decreed would have gone out to their place
of death.' So that Allah might test what is in your breasts and purge
what is in your hearts. Allah knows the contents of your hearts. (3:154)
You will be tested in your wealth and in yourselves and you will hear
many abusive words from those given the Book before you and from those
who are idolaters. But if you are steadfast and guard against evil, that
is the most resolute course to take. (3:186)
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)
You who believe! Allah will test you with game animals which come within
the reach of your hands and spears, so that Allah will know those who
fear Him in the Unseen. Anyone who oversteps the limits after this will
have a painful punishment. (5:94)
In this way We try some of them by means of others so that they say,
'Are these the people among us to whom Allah has shown His favour?' Does
not Allah know best those who are thankful? (6:53)
It is He Who appointed you successors on the earth and raised some of
you above others in rank so He could test you regarding what He has given
you. Your Lord is Swift in Retribution; and He is Ever-Forgiving, Most
Merciful. (6:165)
Remember when We rescued you from Pharaoh's people who were inflicting
an evil punishment on you, killing your sons and letting your women live.
In that there was a terrible trial from your Lord. (7:141)
Musa chose seventy men from his people for Our appointed time and when
the earthquake seized them he said, 'My Lord, if You had willed, You could
have destroyed them previously and me as well. Would you destroy us for
what the fools among us did? It was only a trial from You by which You
misguided those You willed and guided those You willed. You are our Protector
so forgive us and have mercy on us. You are the Best of Forgivers.' (7:155)
Ask them about the town which was by the sea when they broke the Sabbath-when
their fish came to them near the surface on their Sabbath day but did
not come on the days which they did not keep the Sabbath. In this way
We put them to the test because they were deviators. (7:163)
You did not kill them; it was Allah Who killed them; and you did not
throw, when you threw; it was Allah Who threw: so He might test the believers
with this excellent trial from Him. Allah is All-Hearing, All-Knowing.
(8:17)
It is He Who created the heavens and the earth in six days when His Throne
was on the water, in order to test which of you has the best actions.
If you say, 'You will be raised up after death,' those who disbelieve
will say, 'This is nothing but downright magic.' (11:7)
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)
When We said to you, 'Surely your Lord encompasses the people with His
knowledge.' We only appointed the vision We showed you and the Accursed
Tree in the Qur'an as a trial and temptation for the people. We frighten
them, but it only increases them in their excessive insolence. (17:60)
We made everything on the earth adornment for it so that We could test
them to see whose actions are the best. (18:7)
(Allah said,) 'When your sister went and said, "Shall I direct you to
someone who will take care of him?" that was how We returned you to your
mother so that she might delight her eyes and not be grieved. You killed
a man and We rescued you from trouble and tested you with many trials.
You stayed some years among the people of Madyan. Then you arrived at
the pre-ordained time, Musa!' (20:40)
Do not direct your eyes longingly to what We have given certain of them
to enjoy, the flower of the life of this world, so that We can test them
by it. Your Lord's provision is better and longer lasting. (20:131)
Every self will taste death. We test you with both good and evil as a
trial. And you will be returned to Us. (21:35)
We did not send any Messenger or any Prophet before you without Satan
insinuating something into his recitation while he was reciting. But Allah
revokes whatever Satan insinuates and then Allah confirms His Signs-Allah
is All-Knowing, All-Wise-so that He can make what Satan insinuates a trial
for those with sickness in their hearts and for those whose hearts are
hard-the wrongdoers are entrenched in hostility. (22:52-53)
There are Signs in that. We are always putting people to the test. (23:30)
Do not make the Messenger's summoning of you the same as your summoning
of one another. Allah knows those of you who sneak away. Those who oppose
his command should beware of a testing trial coming to them or a painful
punishment striking them. (24:63)
We never sent any Messengers before you who did not eat food and walk
in the market-place. But We have made some of you a trial for others to
see if you will be steadfast? Your Lord sees everything. (25:20)
He who possessed knowledge of the Book said, 'I will bring it to you
before your glance returns to you.' And when he (Sulayman) saw it standing
firmly in his presence, he said, 'This is part of my Lord's favour to
test me to see if I will give thanks or show ingratitude. Whoever gives
thanks only does so to his own gain. Whoever is ungrateful, my Lord is
Rich Beyond Need, Generous.' (27:40)
They said, 'We see you, and those with you, as an evil omen.' He (Salih)
said, 'No, your evil omen is with Allah; you are merely a people undergoing
a trial.' (27:47)
Do people imagine that they will be left to say, 'We believe,' and will
not be tested? (29:2)
We tested those before them so that Allah would know the truthful and
would know the liars. (29:3)
When they came at you from above you and below you, when your eyes rolled
and your hearts rose to your throats, and you thought unworthy thoughts
about Allah, at that point the believers were tested and severely shaken.
(33:10-11)
He (Dawud) said, 'He has wronged you by asking for your ewe to add to
his ewes. Truly many partners are unjust to one another-except those who
believe and do right actions, and how few they are!' Dawud realised that
We had put him to the test. He begged forgiveness from his Lord and fell
down prone, prostrating, and repented. (38:24)
We tested Sulayman and placed a lifeless body on his throne. Then he
repented. (38:34)
Before them We put Pharaoh's people to the test when a noble Messenger
came to them, saying 'Hand over to me the servants of Allah. I am a trustworthy
Messenger to you.' (44:17-18)
Therefore when you meet those who disbelieve strike their necks. Then
when you have decimated them, tie their bonds tightly and set them free
or ransom them, until the war is finally over. That is how it is to be.
If Allah willed, He could avenge Himself on them. But it is so that He
can test some of you by means of others. As for those who fight in the
Way of Allah, He will not let their actions go astray. (47:4)
We will test you until We know the true fighters among you and those
who are steadfast and test what is reported of you. (47:31)
Those who lower their voices when they are with the Messenger of Allah
are people whose hearts Allah has tested for heedfulness. They will have
forgiveness and an immense reward. (49:3)
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)
He Who created death and life to test which of you is best in action.
He is the Almighty, the Ever-Forgiving. (67:2)
If only they were to go straight on the Path, We would give them abundant
water to drink so that We could test them by it. Whoever turns aside from
the remembrance of his Lord, He will introduce him to an arduous punishment.
(72:16-17)
We created man from a mingled drop to test him, and We made him hearing
and seeing. (76:2)
As for man, when his Lord tests him by honouring him and favouring him,
he says, 'My Lord has honoured me!' But then when He tests him by restricting
his provision, he says, 'My Lord has humiliated me!' (89:15-16)
TEXT
If they deny you, Messengers before you were also denied, who brought
the Clear Signs and written texts and the illuminating Book. (3:184)
They say, 'If only he would bring us a Sign from his Lord!' Have they
not received the Clear Sign of what is written in the earlier texts? (20:133)
Or has he not been informed what is in the texts of Musa? (53:36)
This is certainly in the earlier texts, the texts of Ibrahim and Musa.
(87:18-19)
The People of the Book who disbelieve and the idolaters would not be
cut off until the Clear Sign came to them: a Messenger from Allah reciting
purified texts. (98:1-2)
THANKSGIVING
Then We pardoned you after that so that perhaps you would show thanks.
(2:52)
Then We brought you back to life after your death, so that perhaps you
would show thanks. (2:56)
Remember Me-I will remember you. Give thanks to Me and do not be ungrateful.
(2:152)
You who believe! Eat of the good things We have provided for you and
give thanks to Allah if you worship Him alone. (2:172)
The month of Ramadan is the one in which the Qur'an was sent down as
guidance for mankind, with Clear Signs containing guidance and discrimination.
Any of you who are resident for the month should fast it. But any of you
who are ill or on a journey should fast a number of other days. Allah
desires ease for you; He does not desire difficulty for you. You should
complete the number of days and proclaim Allah's greatness for the guidance
He has given you so that hopefully you will be thankful. (2:185)
Allah helped you at Badr when you were weak so have fear of Allah, so
that hopefully you will be thankful. (3:123)
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)
No self can die except with Allah's permission, at a predetermined time.
If anyone desires the reward of this world, We will give him some of it.
If anyone desires the reward of the hereafter, We will give him some of
it. We will recompense the thankful. (3:145)
Why should Allah punish you if you are thankful and believe? Allah is
All-Thankful, All-Knowing. (4:147)
You who believe! When you get up to perform prayer, wash your faces and
your hands and your arms to the elbows, and wipe over your heads, and
(wash) your feet to the ankles. If you are in a state of major impurity,
then purify yourselves. But if you are ill or on a journey, or have come
from the lavatory, or have touched women, and cannot find any water, then
take for yourselves clean earth, and wipe your faces and your hands therewith.
Allah does not want to make things difficult for you, but He does want
to purify you and to perfect His blessing upon you so that hopefully you
will be thankful. (5:6)
Allah does not take you to task for your inadvertent oaths, but He will
take you to task for oaths you make intentionally. The expiation in that
case is to feed ten poor people with the average amount you feed your
family, or clothe them, or free a slave. Anyone without the means to do
so should fast three days. That is the expiation for breaking oaths when
you have sworn them. Keep your oaths. In this way Allah makes His Signs
clear to you, so that hopefully you will be thankful. (5:89)
In this way We try some of them by means of others so that they say,
'Are these the people among us to whom Allah has shown His favour?' Does
not Allah know best those who are thankful? (6:53)
Say: 'Who rescues you from the darkness of the land and sea? You call
on Him humbly and secretly: "If you rescue us from this, we will truly
be among the thankful."' (6:63)
We have established you firmly on the earth and granted you your livelihood
in it. What little thanks you show! (7:10)
(Satan said,) 'Then I will come at them, from in front of them and behind
them, from their right and from their left. You will not find most of
them thankful.' (7:17)
Good land yields up its plants by its Lord's permission, but that which
is bad only yields up scantily. In this way We vary the Signs for people
who are thankful. (7:58)
He said, 'Musa, I have chosen you over all mankind for My Message and
My Word. Take what I have given you and be among the thankful.' (7:144)
It is He Who created you from a single self and made from him his spouse
so that he might find repose in her. Then when he covered her she bore
a light load and carried it around. Then when it became heavy they called
on Allah, their Lord, 'If You grant us a healthy child, we will be among
the thankful!' (7:189)
When you were few and oppressed in the land, afraid that the people would
snatch you away, He gave you refuge and supported you with His help and
provided you with good things so that hopefully you would be thankful.
(8:26)
It is He Who conveys you on both land and sea so that when some of you
are on a boat, running before a fair wind, rejoicing at it, and then a
violent squall comes upon them and the waves come at them from every side
and they realise there is no way of escape, they call on Allah, making
their religion sincerely His: 'If You rescue us from this, we will truly
be among the thankful.' (10:22)
What will those who invent lies against Allah think on the Day of Rising?
Allah shows favour to mankind but most of them are not thankful. (10:60)
(Yusuf said,) 'I hold fast to the creed of my forebears Ibrahim and Ishaq
and Ya'qub. We don't associate anything with Allah. And that is how Allah
has favoured us and all mankind, but most do not give thanks.' (12:38)
We sent Musa with Our Signs: 'Bring your people from the darkness to
the light and remind them of the Days of Allah.' There are certainly Signs
in that for everyone who is steadfast, thankful. (14:5)
(Ibrahim said,) 'Our Lord! I have settled some of my offspring by Your
Sacred House in an uncultivated valley. Our Lord! Let them perform prayer!
Make the hearts of mankind incline towards them and provide them with
fruits, so that hopefully they will be thankful.' (14:37)
It is He Who made the sea subservient to you so that you can eat fresh
flesh from it and bring out from it ornaments to wear. And you see the
ships cleaving through it so that you can seek His bounty, and so that
hopefully you will show thanks. (16:14)
Allah brought you out of your mothers' wombs knowing nothing at all,
and gave you hearing, sight and hearts so that perhaps you would show
thanks. (16:78)
So eat from what Allah has provided for you, lawful and good, and be
thankful for the blessing of Allah if it is Him you worship. (16:114)
He (Ibrahim) was thankful for His blessings. Allah chose him and guided
him to a straight path. (16:121)
We taught him the art of making garments for you to protect you against
each others' violence, but do you show any thanks? (21:80)
We have appointed the sacrificial animals for you as one of the sacred
rites of Allah. There is good in them for you, so invoke Allah's name
over them, as they stand in rows. And then when they collapse on their
sides, eat of them and feed both those who ask and those who are too shy
to ask. In this way We have subjected them to you so that hopefully you
will be thankful. (22:36)
It is He Who has created hearing, sight and hearts for you. What little
thanks you show! (23:78)
It is He Who made night and day succeed each other for those who want
to pay heed or to give thanks. (25:62)
He (Sulayman) smiled, laughing at its words, and said, 'My Lord, keep
me thankful for the blessing You have bestowed on me and on my parents,
and keep me acting rightly, pleasing You, and admit me, by Your mercy,
among Your servants who are righteous.' (27:19)
He who possessed knowledge of the Book said, 'I will bring it to you
before your glance returns to you.' And when he (Sulayman) saw it standing
firmly in his presence, he said, 'This is part of my Lord's favour to
test me to see if I will give thanks or show ingratitude. Whoever gives
thanks only does so to his own gain. Whoever is ungrateful, my Lord is
Rich Beyond Need, Generous.' (27:40)
Allah shows favour to mankind but most of them are not thankful. (27:73)
But part of His mercy is that He has made both night and day for you
so that you can have your rest and seek His bounty, and so that hopefully
you will be thankful. (28:73)
(Ibrahim said to his people,) 'Instead of Allah you worship only idols.
You are inventing a lie. Those you worship besides Allah have no power
to provide for you. So seek your provision from Allah and worship Him
and give thanks to Him. It is to Him you will be returned.' (29:17)
Among His Signs is that He sends the winds bearing good news, to give
you a taste of His mercy, and to make the ships run by His command, and
to enable you to seek His bounty so that hopefully you will be thankful.
(30:46)
We gave Luqman wisdom: 'Give thanks to Allah. Whoever gives thanks only
does so to his own good. Whoever is ungrateful, Allah is Rich Beyond Need,
Praiseworthy.' (31:12)
We have instructed man concerning his parents. Bearing him caused his
mother great debility and the period of his weaning was two years: 'Give
thanks to Me and to your parents. I am your final destination.' (31:14)
Do you not see that ships sail on the sea by Allah's blessing so that
He can show you something of His Signs? There are certainly Signs in that
for everyone who is steadfast and thankful. (31:31)
Then (He) formed him and breathed His Spirit into him and gave you hearing,
sight and hearts. What little thanks you show! (32:9)
They made for him anything he (Sulayman) wished: high arches and statues,
huge dishes like cisterns, great built-in cooking vats. 'Work, family
of Dawud, in thankfulness!' But very few of My servants are thankful.
(34:13)
There was also a sign for Saba in their dwelling place: two gardens-one
to the right and one to the left. 'Eat of your Lord's provision and give
thanks to Him: a bountiful land and a forgiving Lord.' (34:15)
They said, 'Our Lord, put more distance between our staging posts.' They
wronged themselves so We made legends of them and scattered them without
a trace. There are certainly Signs in that for everyone who is steadfast
and thankful. (34:19)
The two seas are not the same: the one is sweet, refreshing, delicious
to drink, the other salty, bitter to the taste. Yet from both of them
you eat fresh flesh and extract ornaments for yourselves to wear; and
you see ships on them, cleaving through the waves so that you can seek
His bounty and so that hopefully you will be thankful. (35:12)
We place in it gardens of dates and grapes, and cause springs to gush
out in it, so they may eat its fruits-they did not do it themselves. So
will they not be thankful? (36:34-35)
And they have other uses for them, and milk to drink. So will they not
be thankful? (36:73)
No! Worship Allah and be among the thankful. (39:66)
Allah is He Who appointed the night for you so that you might rest in
it, and the day for seeing. Allah pours out His favour on mankind but
most people do not show thanks. (40:61)
If He wills He makes the wind stop blowing and then they lie motionless
on its back. There are certainly Signs in that for everyone who is steadfast
and thankful. (42:33)
It is Allah Who has made the sea subservient to you so that the ships
sail on it at His command, enabling you to seek His bounty, so that hopefully
you will be thankful. (45:12)
We have instructed man to be good to his parents. His mother bore him
with difficulty and with difficulty gave birth to him; and his bearing
and weaning take thirty months. Then when he achieves his full strength
and reaches forty, he says, 'My Lord, keep me thankful for the blessing
You bestowed on me and on my parents, and keep me acting rightly, pleasing
You. And make my descendants righteous. I have repented to You and I am
truly one of the Muslims.' (46:15)
It was a blessing direct from Our presence. That is how We recompense
those who give thanks. (54:35)
If We wished We could have made it (the water that you drink) bitter,
so will you not give thanks? (56:70)
Say: 'It is He Who brought you into being and gave you hearing, sight
and hearts. What little thanks you show!' (67:23)
We created man from a mingled drop to test him, and We made him hearing
and seeing. We guided him on the Way, whether he is thankful or unthankful.
(76:2-3)
