theexception of Satan. He refused and was arrogant and was one ofthe
unbelievers. (Surat Al-Baqara, 34)
When they are told, 'Do not cause corruption on the earth,' they say,
'We are only putting things right.' (Surat Al-Baqara, 11)
No indeed! They are the corrupters, but they are not aware of it.
(Surat Al-Baqara, 12)
Those who break Allah's contract after it has been agreed, and sever
what Allah has commanded to be joined, and cause corruption on the
earth, it is they who are the lost. (Surat Al-Baqara, 27)
And when you said, 'Moses, we will not put up with just one kind of
food so ask your Lord to supply to us some of what the earth produces–
its green vegetables, cucumbers, grains, lentils and onions,' he said,
'Do you want to replace what is better with what is inferior? Goback
to Egypt, then you will have what you are asking for.' Abasement and
destitution were stamped upon them. They brought down anger from Allah
upon themselves. That was because they rejected Allah's Signs and
killed the Prophets without any right to do so. That was because they
rebelled and went beyond the limits. (Surat Al-Baqara, 61)
You are well aware of those of you who broke the Sabbath. We said to
them, 'Be apes, despised,cast out.' (Surat Al-Baqara, 65)
We made it an exemplary punishment for those there then, andthose
coming afterwards, and a warning to those who have fear of Allah.
(SuratAl-Baqara, 66)
Do you really hope they will follow you in belief when a group of them
heard Allah's Word and then, after grasping it, knowingly distorted
it? (Surat Al-Baqara, 75)
When they meet those who have belief in Allah,they say, 'We have
beliefin Allah.' But when they go apart with one another, they say,
'Why do you speak to them about what Allah has disclosed to you, so
they can use it as an argument against you before your Lord? Will you
not use your intellect?' (Surat Al-Baqara, 76)
Remember when We made a covenant with the tribe of Israel: 'Worship
none but Allah and be good to your parents and to relatives and
orphans and the very poor. And speak good words to people. And
establish daily prayer and give alm.' Butthen you turned away – except
a few of you – you turned aside. (Surat Al-Baqara, 83)
Then you are the people who are killing one another and expelling a
group among you from their homes, ganging upagainst them in wrongdoing
and enmity.Yet if they are brought to you as captives, you ransom
them, when it was forbidden for you toexpel them in the first place!
Do you, then, believe in one part of the Book and reject the other?
What repayment will there be for any of you who do that except
disgrace in this world? And on the Day of Rising,they will be returned
to the harshest of punishments. Allah is notunaware of what you do.
(Surat Al-Baqara, 85)
We gave Moses the Bookand sent a succession of Messengers after him.
We gave 'Jesus, son of Maryam, the Clear Signs and reinforced him with
the Purest Soul. Why then, whenever a Messenger came to you with
something your lower selves did not desire, did you grow arrogant, and
deny some of them and murder others? (Surat Al-Baqara, 87)
What an evil thing they have sold themselves for in rejecting what
Allah has sent down, outragedthat Allah should send down His favour on
whichever of His slaves He wills. They have brought down anger upon
anger on themselves. The unbelievers will have a humiliating
punishment.(Surat Al-Baqara, 90)
When they are told, 'Believe in what Allah has sent down,' they
say,'Our belief is in what was sent down to us,' and they reject
anythingbeyond that, even though it is the truth, confirming what they
have. Say, 'Why then, if you are believers, did you previously kill
the Prophets of Allah?' (SuratAl-Baqara, 91)
Remember when We made a covenant with you and lifted up the Mount
above your heads: 'Take hold vigorously of what We have given you and
listen.' They said, 'We hear and disobey.' They were made to drink the
Calf into their hearts because of their disbelief. Say, 'If you are
believers, what an evil thing your belief has made you do.' (Surat
Al-Baqara, 93)
Or do you want to question your Messengeras Moses was
questionedbefore? Anyone who exchanges belief for disbelief has
definitely gone astray from the level way. (Surat Al-Baqara, 108)
When they are told, 'Follow what Allah has sent down to you,' They
say, 'We are following what we found our fathers doing.' What, even
though their fathers did not understand a thing and were not guided!
(Surat Al-Baqara, 170)
When he leaves you, he goes about the earth corrupting it,
destroyingcrops and animals. Allah does not love corruption. (Surat
Al-Baqara, 205)
When he is told to have fear of Allah, he is seizedby pride which
drives him to wrongdoing. Hell will be enough for him! What an evil
resting-place! (Surat Al-Baqara, 206)
They will ask you about the Sacred Month and fighting in it. Say,
'Fighting in it is a seriousmatter; but barring access to the Way of
Allah and rejecting Him and barring access to the Masjid al-Unlawful
and expelling its people from it are far more serious in the sight of
Allah. Corruption 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 deen and die as unbeliever, their
actions will come to nothing in the world and the Hereafter. They are
the Companions of the Fire, remaining in it timelessly, for ever.
(Surat Al-Baqara, 217)
The religion with Allah isIslam. Those given the Book only differed
after knowledge had come to them, envying one another. As for those
who reject Allah's Signs, Allah is swift at reckoning. (Surah Al
'Imran, 19)
They will be plunged into abasement wherever they are found, unless
they have a treaty with Allah and with the people. They have brought
down anger from Allah upon themselves, and they have been plunged into
destitution. That was because they rejected Allah's Signs and killed
the Prophets without any right to do so. That was because they
disobeyed and went beyond the limits. (SurahAl 'Imran, 112)
And so that He would know the hypocrites. They were told, 'Come and
fight in the Way of Allah or at least help defend us.' They said, 'If
we knew how to fight, we would certainly follow you.' They were closer
to disbelief that day than to belief, saying with their mouthswhat was
not in their hearts. And Allah knows best what they are hiding. (Surah
Al 'Imran, 167)
As for those who disobeyAllah and His Messenger and overstep His
limits, We will admit them into a Fire, remaining in it timelessly,
for ever. They will have a humiliating punishment. (Surat An-Nisa',
14)
On that day those who were unbelievers and disobeyed the Messenger
will wish thatthey were one with the level earth. They will not be
able to hide a single circumstance from Allah. (Surat An-Nisa', 42)
Some of the Jews distort the true meaning of words, saying,'We hear
and disobey,' and 'Listenwithout listening,' and 'Ra'ina!' twisting
them with their tongues, disparaging the religion.If they had said,
'We hear and we obey,' and 'Listen,' and, 'Undhurna!'that would have
been better for them and more upright. But Allah has cursed them for
their disbelief. Very few of them have belief. (Surat An-Nisa', 46)
When they are told, 'Come to what Allah has sent down and to the
Messenger,' you see the munafiqun turning away from you completely.
(Surat An-Nisa', 61)
We sent no Messenger except to be obeyed by Allah's permission. If
only when they wronged themselves they had come to you and asked
Allah's forgiveness and the Messenger had asked forgiveness for them
they would have found Allah Ever-Returning, Most Merciful. (Surat
An-Nisa', 64)
No, by your Lord, they are not believers until they make you their
judge in the disputes that break out between them, and then find no
resistance within themselves to what you decide and submit themselves
completely. (Surat An-Nisa', 65)
If We had directed them to kill themselves or leave their homes, they
would not have done so,except for a very few. But if they had done
what they were urged todo, it would have been better for them and far
more strengthening. (Surat An-Nisa', 66)
They have the word, 'Obedience!' on their tongues but when they leave
your presence, a group of them spend thenight plotting to do other
than what you say.Allah is recording their nocturnal plotting. So
letthem be and put your trust in Allah. Allah suffices as a Guardian.
(Surat An-Nisa', 81)
But if anyone opposes the Messenger after the guidance has become
clear to him, and followsother than the path of the believers, We will
hand him over to whatever he has turned to, and We will roast himin
Hell. What an evil destination! (Surat An-Nisa', 115)
The People of the Book will ask you to bring down a Book from heaven
to them. They asked Moses for even more than that. They said, 'Let us
see Allah with our own eyes.' So the lightning-bolt struck them down
for their wrongdoing. Then they adopted the Calf after the Clear Signs
had cometo them, but We pardoned them for that and gave Moses clear
authority. (Surat An-Nisa', 153)
We lifted up the Mount above their heads in accordance with the
covenant they had made, and We said to them, 'Enter the gate
prostrating,' and We said to them, 'Do not break the Sabbath,' and We
made a binding covenant with them. (Surat An-Nisa', 154)
But because of their breaking of their covenant, We have cursed them
and made their hearts hard. They distort the true meaningof words and
have forgotten a good portion of what they were reminded of. You will
never cease to come upon some act of treachery on their part, except
for a few of them. Yet pardon them, and overlook. Allah
lovesgood-doers. (Surat Al-Ma'ida, 13)
They said, 'We will neverenter it, Moses, as long as they are there.
So youand your Lord go and fight. We will stay sittinghere.' (Surat
Al-Ma'ida, 24)
He said, 'My Lord, I have no control over anyone but myself and my
brother, so make a clear distinction between us and this deviant
people.'(Surat Al-Ma'ida, 25)
We created you and then formed you and then We said to the angels,
'Prostrate before Adam,' and they prostrated – except for Satan. He
was not among those who prostrated. (Surat Al-A'raf, 11)

He replied, 'I am better than him. You created me from fire andYou
created him from clay.' (Surat Al-A'raf, 12)
He said, 'Descend from Heaven. It is not for you to be arrogant in it.
So get out! You are one of the abased.' (Surat Al-A'raf, 13)
He said, 'Grant me a reprieve until the day they are raised up.'
(Surat Al-A'raf, 14)
He said, 'You are one of the reprieved.' (Surat Al-A'raf, 15)
He said, 'By Your misguidance of me, I willlie in ambush for them on
your straight path. (Surat Al-A'raf, 16)
Then I will come at them,from infront of them and behind them, from
their right and from their left. You will not find most of them
thankful. (Surat Al-A'raf, 17)
He said, 'Get out of it, reviled and driven out. As for those of them
whofollow you, I will fill up Hell with every one of you.' (Surat
Al-A'raf, 18)
So he enticed them to doit by means of trickery. Then when they tasted
the tree, their private parts were disclosed to them and they started
stitching together the leaves of the Garden in order to cover
themselves. Their Lord called out to them,'Did I not forbid you this
tree and say to you, "Satan is an outright enemy to you"? (Surat
Al-A'raf, 22)
The ruling circle of thoseof his people who were arrogant said, 'We

along with you, unless you return to our religion.' He said, 'What,
even though we detest it? (Surat Al-A'raf, 88)
The ruling circle of thoseof his people who were unbelievers said, 'If
you follow Shu'ayb, you will definitely be lost.' (Surat Al-A'raf, 90)

Lord's message to you and gave you good counsel. Why should I grieve
for people of disbelief?' (Surat Al-A'raf,93)
We did not find many of them worthy of their contract. We found most
of them deviators. (SuratAl-A'raf, 102)
And then, after them, Wesent Moses with Our Signs to Pharaoh and
hisruling circle but they wrongfully rejected them. See the final fate
of the corrupters! (Surat Al-A'raf, 103)
They said, 'We suffered harm before you came to us and after you
cameto us.' He said, 'It may well be that your Lord is going to
destroy your enemy and make you the successors in the land so that He
can see how you behave.' (Surat Al-A'raf, 129)
I will divert from My Signs all those who are arrogant in the earth
without any right. If they see every Sign, theywill not believe in it.
If they see the way of rightguidance, they will not take it as a way.
But if they see the way of error, they will take that as a way. That
is becausethey denied Our Signs and paid no attention tothem. (Surat
Al-A'raf, 146)
We conveyed the tribe of Israel across the sea and they came upon some
people who were devoting themselves to some idols which they had. They
said, 'Moses, give us a god just as these people have gods.'He said,

doing is purposeless.' (Surat Al-A'raf, 139)

when He has favoured you over all other beings?' (Surat Al-A'raf, 140)
After he left, Moses's people adopted a calf made from their
ornaments, a form which made a lowing sound. Did they not see that it
could not speak tothem or guide them to any way? They adopted it and
so they were wrongdoers. (Surat Al-A'raf, 148)
When Moses returned to his people in anger and great sorrow, he said,
'What an evil thing you did in my absence after Ileft! 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.' (Surat Al-A'raf, 150)
Those who follow the Messenger, the Unlettered Prophet, whom they find
written down with them in the Torah and the Gospel, commanding them to
doright and forbidding them to do wrong, making good things lawful for
them and bad things unlawful for them, relieving them of their heavy
loads and the chains which were around them. Those whobelieve in him
and honour him and help him, and follow the Light that has been sent
down with him, they arethe ones who are successful.' (Surat Al-A'raf,
157)
Ask them about the town which was by the sea when they broke
theSabbath – when their fish came to them near the surface on their

(Surat Al-A'raf, 167)

rightious and some are other than that. We triedthem with good and
evilso that hopefully they would return. (Surat Al-A'raf, 168)
Those who are in the presence of your Lord donot consider themselves
too great to worship Him. They glorify His praise and they prostrate
to Him. (Surat Al-A'raf, 206)
Just as your Lord brought you out from your house with truth, even
though a group of the believers disliked it. (Surat Al-Anfal, 5)

Al-Anfal, 6)
And when your Lord revealed to the angels, 'I am with you so make
those who believe, firm. I will cast terror into the hearts of those
who are unbelievers, so strike their necks and strike all their finger
joints!' (Surat Al-Anfal, 12)

your tribe, or any wealth you have acquired, or any business you fear
may slump, or any house which pleases you, are dearer to you than
Allah and His Messenger and struggle in His Way, thenwait until Allah
brings about His command. Allah does not guide people who are
deviators.' (Surat At-Tawba, 24)
You who believe! What is the matter with you that when you are told,
'Go out and fight in the way of Allah,' you sink down heavily to the
earth? Are you happier with the earth than the Hereafter? Yet the
enjoyment of the earth is very small compared to that of the
Hereafter. (Surat At-Tawba, 38)

lying. (Surat At-Tawba, 42)

Among them are some who insult the Prophet, saying he is only an ear.

punishment. (Surat At-Tawba, 61)

around.' Say: 'Would youmake a mockery of Allah and of His Signs and

would not forgive them. That is because they have rejected Allah and
His Messenger. Allah does not guide deviant people. (Surat

Those who were left behind were glad to staybehind the Messenger
ofAllah. They did not want to struggle with their wealth and

the heat.' Say: 'The Fire of Hell is much hotter, if they only
understood.' (Surat At-Tawba, 81)

earned. (Surat At-Tawba, 82)

you ever fight an enemy with me. You were happy to stay behind the
first time, so stay behind with those who are left behind.' (Surat

He will inform you regarding what you did.'(Surat At-Tawba, 94)

liars. (Surah Hud, 27)
