"We are following what we found our fathers doing." What, even though
their fathers did not understand a thing and were not guided! (Qur'an,
2:170)

listen to My words. They have followed otherdeities to serve them..."

NOT TO BE DIVIDED IN RELIGION
He has laid down the same religion for you as He enjoined on Noah:
that which We have revealed to you and which We enjoined on Abraham,
Moses, and Jesus: "Establish the religion and do not make divisions in
it"... (Qur'an, 42:13)
[Idolaters are] those who split up their religion and form into sects,
each faction exulting in what they have. (Qur'an, 30:32)
Those who were given the Book did not divide into sects until after
the Clear Sign came to them. (Qur'an, 98:4)
Obey God and His Messenger and do not quarrel among yourselves, lest
you lose heart and your momentum disappear. And be steadfast. God is
with the steadfast. (Qur'an, 8:46)

... All of you agree with one another so that theremay be no divisions
among you and that you may be perfectly united in mind and thought. (1

MAN'S CREATION
We created man from the purest kind of clay, then made him a drop ina
secure receptacle, thenformed the drop into a clot, formed the clot
intoa lump, formed the lumpinto bones, clothed the bones in flesh, and
then brought him into being as another creature. Blessed be God, the
Best of Creators! (Qur'an, 23:12-14)
Old Testament
Your hands shaped me and made me... Remember that You molded me like
clay... [Did you not] clothe me with skin and flesh, and knit me
together with bones and sinews? (Job 10:8-11)
The Spirit of God has made me; the breath of the Almighty gives me
life. (Job 33:4)
I am just like you before God; I too have been taken from clay. (Job 33:6)
THE SELFISH SELF WILL ALWAYS COMMAND EVIL
And [I swear by] the self and what proportioned it, with depravity or
consciousness of God, hewho purifies it has succeeded. (Qur'an,
91:7-9)
But people are prone to selfish greed. If you do good and guard
against evil, God is aware of what you do. (Qur'an, 4:128)
[Joseph said,] I do not say my self was free from blame. The self
indeed commands to evilacts-except for those my Lord has mercy on…

New Testament
Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, so that you obey
itsevil desires. (Romans 6:12)
The acts of the sinful nature are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity
and debauchery; idolatry andwitchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy,
fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions, andenvy;
drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before,that
those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God.
(Galatians 5:19-21)
He [Jesus] went on:"What comes out of a man is what makes him
'unclean.' For from within, out of men's hearts, come evil thoughts,
sexual immorality, theft, murder, adultery, greed, malice, deceit,
lewdness, envy, slander, arrogance,and folly. All these evils come
from inside and make a man 'unclean.'" (Mark 7:20-23)
BAD CHARACTER TRAITS
But do not obey any vile swearer of oaths, any backbiter,
slandermonger, impederof good, evil aggressor, or gross, coarse and,
furthermore, despicable person, simply because he possesses wealth and
sons. When Our Signs arerecited to him, he says:"Just myths of
previous peoples!" (Qur'an, 68:10-15)
An evil generation succeeded them who neglected the prayer and
followed their appetites. They will plunge into the Valley of Evil.
(Qur'an, 19:59)
New Testament
They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed,
and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, and
malice. They are gossips, slanderers ... insolent, arrogant, and
boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents;
they are senseless, faithless, heartless, ruthless. (Romans 1:29-31)
Old Testament
They would not be like their forefathers-a stubborn and rebellious
generation, whose hearts were not loyal to God, whose spirits were not
faithful to Him. (Psalm 78:8)
Suppose he has a violent son who sheds blood or does any of these
other things (though the fatherhas done none of them): He eats at the
mountain shrines, defiles his neighbor's wife, oppresses the poor and
needy, commits robbery, does not return what he took in pledge, and
looksto the idols. He does detestable things. (Ezekiel 18:10-12)
He thwarts the plans of the crafty, so that their hands achieve no
success. He catches the wise in their craftiness, and the schemes of
the wily are swept away. (Job 5:12-13)
