\u201cSo by mercy from Allah, [O Muhammad], you were lenient with them. And if you had been rude [in speech] and harsh in heart, they would have disbanded from about you. So pardon them and ask forgiveness for them and consult them in the matter. And when you have decided, then rely upon Allah . Indeed, Allah loves those who rely [upon Him].\u201d\u00a0\u2013 The Holy Quran 3:159<\/cite><\/p>\n Listen Online<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n \u201cWho spend [in the cause of Allah] during ease and hardship and who restrain anger and who pardon the people \u2013 and Allah loves the doers of good.\u201d\u00a0\u2013 The Holy Quran 3:134<\/cite><\/p>\n \u201cWorship Allah and associate nothing with Him, and to parents do good, and to relatives, orphans, the needy, the near neighbor, the neighbor farther away, the companion at your side, the traveler, and those whom your right hands possess. Indeed, Allah does not like those who are self-deluding and boastful.\u201d\u00a0\u2013 The Holy Quran 4:36<\/cite><\/p>\n \u201c[Allah] said, \u201cDescend from Paradise, for it is not for you to be arrogant therein.

And whoever does not repent \u2013 then it is those who are the wrongdoers.\u201d \u00a0\u2013 The Holy Quran 49:11<\/cite><\/p>\n \u201cSay not to them [so much as], \u201cuff,\u201d and do not repel them but speak to them a noble word\u201d \u2013\u00a0The Holy Quran\u00a017:23<\/cite><\/p>\n \u201cAnd when it is said to them, \u2018Follow what Allah has revealed,\u2019 they say, \u2018Rather, we will follow that which we found our fathers doing.\u2019 Even though their fathers understood nothing, nor were they guided?\u201d\u00a0\u2013 The Holy Quran 2:170<\/cite><\/p>\n \u201cAnd if someone is in hardship, then [let there be] postponement until [a time of] ease. But if you give [from your right as] charity, then it is better for you, if you only knew.\u201d \u2013 The Holy Quran 2:280<\/cite><\/p>\n \u201cAnd do not consume one another\u2019s wealth unjustly or send it [in bribery] to the rulers in order that [they might aid] you [to] consume a portion of the wealth of the people in sin, while you know [it is unlawful].\u201d\u00a0\u2013 The Holy Quran\u00a02:188<\/cite><\/p>\n \u201cRighteousness is not that you turn your faces toward the east or the west, but [true] righteousness is [in] one who believes in Allah , the Last Day, the angels, the Book, and the prophets and gives wealth, in spite of love for it, to relatives, orphans, the needy, the traveler, those who ask [for help], and for freeing slaves; [and who] establishes prayer and gives zakah; [those who] fulfill their promise when they promise; and [those who] are patient in poverty and hardship and during battle. Those are the ones who have been true, and it is those who are the righteous.\u201d\u00a0\u2013 The Holy Quran 2:177<\/cite><\/p>\n \u201cO you who have believed, be persistently standing firm in justice, witnesses for Allah , even if it be against yourselves or parents and relatives. Whether one is rich or poor, Allah is more worthy of both. So follow not [personal] inclination, lest you not be just. And if you distort [your testimony] or refuse [to give it], then indeed Allah is ever, with what you do, Acquainted.\u201d\u00a0\u2013 The Holy Quran 4:135<\/cite><\/p>\n \u201cAnd for women is a share of what the parents and close relatives leave, be it little or much \u2013 an obligatory share.\u201d\u00a0\u2013 The Holy Quran 4:7<\/cite><\/p>\n \u201cTo this world and the Hereafter. And they ask you about orphans. Say, \u201cImprovement for them is best. And if you mix your affairs with theirs \u2013 they are your brothers. And Allah knows the corrupter from the amender. And if Allah had willed, He could have put you in difficulty. Indeed, Allah is Exalted in Might and Wise.\u201d \u2013 The Holy Quran 2:220<\/cite><\/p>\n O you who have believed, do not consume one another\u2019s wealth unjustly but only [in lawful] business by mutual consent. And do not kill yourselves [or one another]. Indeed, Allah is to you ever Merciful.\u00a0\u2013 The Holy Quran 4:29<\/cite><\/p>\n \u201cAnd if two factions among the believers should fight, then make settlement between the two. But if one of them oppresses the other, then fight against the one that oppresses until it returns to the ordinance of Allah . And if it returns, then make settlement between them in justice and act justly. Indeed, Allah loves those who act justly.\u201d \u2013 The Holy Quran 49:9<\/cite><\/p>\n \u201cO you who have believed, avoid much [negative] assumption. Indeed, some assumption is sin.\u201d \u2013 The Holy Quran 49:12<\/cite><\/p>\n And do not spy or backbite each other. Would one of you like to eat the flesh of his brother when dead? You would detest it. And fear Allah ; indeed, Allah is Accepting of repentance and Merciful- The Holy Quran 49:12<\/cite><\/p>\n \u201cBelieve in Allah and His Messenger and spend out of that in which He has made you successors. For those who have believed among you and spent, there will be a great reward.\u201d\u00a0\u2013 The Holy Quran 57:7<\/cite><\/p>\n \u201c[Charity is] for the poor who have been restricted for the cause of Allah , unable to move about in the land. An ignorant [person] would think them self-sufficient because of their restraint, but you will know them by their [characteristic] sign. They do not ask people persistently [or at all]. And whatever you spend of good \u2013 indeed, Allah is Knowing of it.\u201d\u00a0\u2013 The Holy Quran 2:273<\/cite><\/p>\n \u201cAnd if you [must] turn away from the needy awaiting mercy from your Lord which you expect, then speak to them a gentle word.\u201d\u00a0\u2013 The Holy Quran 17:28<\/cite><\/p>\n \u201cThen he turned quickly to his household, brought out a roasted fattened calf, and placed it before them.\u00a0 He said: \u2018Will you not eat?’\u201d- The Holy Quran 51:26<\/cite><\/p>\n \u201cAnd your Lord has decreed that you not worship except Him, and to parents, good treatment. Whether one or both of them reach old age [while] with you.\u201d \u2013\u00a0The Holy Quran 17:23<\/cite><\/p>\n \u201cDo you order righteousness of the people and forget yourselves while you recite the Scripture? Then will you not reason?\u201d \u2013 The Holy Quran 2:44<\/cite><\/p>\n \u201cEat and drink from the provision of Allah , and do not commit abuse on the earth, spreading corruption.\u201d- The Holy Quran 2:60<\/cite><\/p>\n \u201cFight in the way of Allah those who fight you but do not transgress.

The right course has become clear from the wrong. So whoever disbelieves in Taghut and believes in Allah has grasped the most trustworthy handhold with no break in it. And Allah is Hearing and Knowing.\u201d\u00a0\u2013 The Holy Quran 2:256<\/cite><\/p>\n \u201cAnd their prophet said to them, \u201cIndeed, Allah has sent to you Saul as a king.\u201d They said, \u201cHow can he have kingship over us while we are more worthy of kingship than him and he has not been given any measure of wealth?\u201d He said, \u201cIndeed, Allah has chosen him over you and has increased him abundantly in knowledge and stature. And Allah gives His sovereignty to whom He wills. And Allah is all-Encompassing [in favor] and Knowing.\u201d\u201d\u00a0\u2013 The Holy Quran 2:247<\/cite><\/p>\n \u201cAllah does not charge a soul except [with that within] its capacity. It will have [the consequence of] what [good] it has gained, and it will bear [the consequence of] what [evil] it has earned. \u201cOur Lord, do not impose blame upon us if we have forgotten or erred. Our Lord, and lay not upon us a burden like that which You laid upon those before us. Our Lord, and burden us not with that which we have no ability to bear. And pardon us; and forgive us; and have mercy upon us. You are our protector, so give us victory over the disbelieving people.\u201d\u201d\u00a0\u2013 The Holy Quran 2:286<\/cite><\/p>\n \u201cAnd hold firmly to the rope of Allah all together and do not become divided. And remember the favor of Allah upon you \u2013 when you were enemies and He brought your hearts together and you became, by His favor, brothers. And you were on the edge of a pit of the Fire, and He saved you from it. Thus does Allah make clear to you His verses that you may be guided.\u201d\u00a0\u2013 The Holy Quran 3:103<\/cite><\/p>\n And their Lord responded to them, \u201cNever will I allow to be lost the work of [any] worker among you, whether male or female; you are of one another. So those who emigrated or were evicted from their homes or were harmed in My cause or fought or were killed \u2013 I will surely remove from them their misdeeds, and I will surely admit them to gardens beneath which rivers flow as reward from Allah , and Allah has with Him the best reward.\u201d\u00a0\u2013 The Holy Quran 3:195<\/cite><\/p>\n \u201cWho are stingy and enjoin upon [other] people stinginess and conceal what Allah has given them of His bounty \u2013 and We have prepared for the disbelievers a humiliating punishment.\u201d\u00a0\u2013 The Holy Quran 4:37<\/cite><\/p>\n \u201cOr do they envy people for what Allah has given them of His bounty?

And do not be for the deceitful an advocate.\u201d\u00a0\u2013 The Holy Quran 4:105<\/cite><\/p>\n \u201c\u2026\u00a0but do not cooperate in sin and aggression.

So will you not desist?\u201d\u00a0\u2013 The Holy Quran 5:91<\/cite><\/p>\n \u201cAnd do not insult those they invoke other than Allah, lest they insult Allah in enmity without knowledge. Thus We have made pleasing to every community their deeds.
