Lo! religion with Allah is The Surrender to His will and guidance. - Faris_Mee - 04-14-2006 Allah Himself is witness that there is no God save Him. And the angels and the men of learning too are witness. Maintaining His creation in justice, there is no God save Him, the Almighty, the Wise. Lo! religion with Allah is The Surrender to His will and guidance. Those who formerly received the Scripture differed only after knowledge came unto them, through transgression among themselves. Whoso disbelieveth the revelations of Allah will find that Lo! Allah is swift at reckoning. And if they argue with thee, O Muhammad, say: I have surrendered my purpose to Allah and so have those who follow me. And say unto those who have received the Scripture and those who read not: Have ye too surrendered? If they surrender, then truly they are rightly guided, and if they turn away, then it is thy duty only to convey the message unto them. Allah is Seer of His bondmen. 3:18-20 Recite unto them the story of Noah, when he told his people: O my people! If my sojourn here and my reminding you by Allah's revelations are an offence unto you, in Allah have I put my trust, so decide upon your course of action, you and your partners. Let not your course of action be in doubt, for you. Then have at me, give me no respite. But if ye are averse I have asked of you no wage. My wage is the concern of Allah only, and I am commanded to be of those who surrender unto Him. 10:71-72 And Allah hath given you, of that which He hath created, shelter from the sun; and hath given you places of refuge in the mountains, and hath given you coats to ward off the heat from you, and coats of armor to save you from your own foolhardiness. Thus doth He perfect His favor unto you, in order that ye may surrender unto Him. Then, if they turn away, thy duty O Muhammad is but plain conveyance of the message. 16:80-81 Lo! religion with Allah is The Surrender to His will and guidance. - Faris_Mee - 04-14-2006 And who forsaketh the religion of Abraham save him who befooleth himself? Verily We chose him in the world, and lo! in the Hereafter he is among the righteous. When his Lord said unto him: Surrender! he said: I have surrendered to the Lord of the Worlds. The same did Abraham enjoin upon his sons, and also Jacob, saying: O my sons! Lo! Allah hath chosen for you the true religion; therefore die not save as men who have surrendered unto Him. Or were ye present when death came to Jacob, when he said unto his sons: What will ye worship after me? They said: We shall worship thy God, the God of thy fathers, Abraham and Ishmael and Isaac, One God, and unto Him we have surrendered. Those are a people who have passed away. Theirs is that which they earned, and yours is that which ye earn. And ye will not be asked of what they used to do. And they say: Be Jews or Christians, then ye will be rightly guided. Say unto them, O Muhammad: Nay, but we follow the religion of Abraham, the upright, and he was not of the idolaters. Say O Muslims: We believe in Allah and that which is revealed unto us and that which was revealed unto Abraham, and Ishmael, and Isaac, and Jacob, and the tribes, and that which Moses and Jesus received, and that which the Prophets received from their Lord. We make no distinction between any of them, and unto Him we have surrendered. And if they believe in the like of that which ye believe, then are they rightly guided. But if they turn away, then are they in schism, and Allah will suffice thee for defence against them. He is the Hearer, the Knower. We take our color from Allah, and who is better than Allah at coloring. We are His worshippers. 2:130-138 Lo! religion with Allah is The Surrender to His will and guidance. - Faris_Mee - 04-14-2006 And verity We have written in the Scripture, after the Reminder: My righteous slaves will inherit the earth: Lo! there is a plain statement for folk who are devout. We sent thee not save as a mercy for the peoples. Say: It is only inspired in me that your God is One God. Will ye then surrender unto Him! 21:105-109 And for every nation have We appointed a ritual, that they may mention the name of Allah over the beast of cattle that He hath given them for food; and your God is One God, therefor surrender unto Him. And give good tidings O Muhammad to the humble. 22:34 Say: Muhammad, I am commanded only to serve the Lord of this land which He hath hallowed, and unto Whom all things belong. And I am commanded to be of those who surrender unto Him, And to recite the Qur'an. And whoso goeth right, goeth right only for the good of his own soul; and as for him who goeth astray unto him say: Lo! I am only a warner. And say: Praise be to Allah who will show you His portents so that ye shall know them. And thy Lord is not unaware of what ye mortals do. 27:91-93 And argue not with the People of the Scripture unless it be in a way that is better, save with such of them as do wrong; and say: We believe in that which hath been revealed unto us and revealed unto you; our God and your God is One, and unto Him we surrender. 29:46 Seek they other than the religion of Allah, when unto Him submitteth whosoever is in the heavens and the earth, willingly, or unwillingly, and unto Him they will be returned. Say O Muhammad: We believe in Allah and that which is revealed unto us and that which was revealed unto Abraham and Ishmael and Isaac and Jacob and the tribes, and that which was vouchsafed unto Moses and Jesus and the Prophets from their Lord. We make no distinction between any of them, and unto Him we have surrendered. And whoso seeketh as religion other than the Surrender to Allah it will not be accepted from him, and he will be a loser in the Hereafter. 3:83-85 Lo! religion with Allah is The Surrender to His will and guidance. - Faris_Mee - 04-14-2006 For verily Muhammad thou canst not make the dead to hear, nor canst thou make the deaf to hear the call when they have turned to flee. Nor canst thou guide the blind out of their error. Thou canst make none to hear save those who believe in Our revelations so that they surrender unto Him. 30:52-53 Lo! men who surrender unto Allah, and women who surrender, and men who believe and women who believe, and men who obey and women who obey, and men who speak the truth and women who speak the truth, and men who persevere in righteousness and women who persevere, and men who are humble and women who are humble, and men who give alms and women who give alms, and men who fast and women who fast, and men who guard their modesty and women who guard their modesty, and men who remember Allah much and women who remember--Allah hath prepared for them forgiveness and a vast reward. And it becometh not a believing man or a believing woman, when Allah and His messenger have decided an affair for them, that they should after that claim any say in their affair; and whoso is rebellious to Allah and His messenger, he verily goeth astray in error manifest. 33:35-36 Say: O My bondmen who believe! Observe your duty to your Lord. For those who do good in this world there is good, and Allah's earth is spacious. Verily the steadfast will be paid their wages without stint. Say O Muhammad: Lo! I am commanded to worship Allah, making religion pure for Him only. And I am commanded to be the first of those who surrender unto Him. Say: Lo! if I should disobey my Lord, I fear the doom of a tremendous Day. Say: Allah I worship, making my religion pure for Him only. Then worship what ye will beside Him. Say: The losers will be those who lose themselves and their housefolk on the Day of Resurrection. Ah, that will be the manifest loss! 39:10-15 Know they not that Allah enlargeth providence for whom He will, and straiteneth it for whom He will. Lo! herein verily are portents for people who believe. Say: My slaves who have been prodigal to their own hurt! Despair not of the mercy of Allah, Who forgiveth all sins. Lo! He is the Forgiving, the Merciful. Turn unto Him repentant, and surrender unto Him, before there come unto you the doom, when ye cannot be helped. And follow the better guidance of that which is revealed unto you from your Lord, before the doom cometh on you suddenly when ye know not, Lest any soul should say Alas, my grief that I was unmindful of Allah, and I was indeed among the scoffers! Or should say: if Allah had but guided me I should have been among the dutiful! Or should say, when it seeth the doom: Oh, that I had but a second chance that I might be among the righteous! But now the answer will be: Nay, for My revelations came unto thee, but thou didst deny them and wast scornful and wast among the disbelievers. 39:52-59 Lo! religion with Allah is The Surrender to His will and guidance. - Faris_Mee - 04-14-2006 He is the Living One. There is no God save Him. So pray unto Him, making religion pure for Him only. Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds! Say O Muhammad: I am forbidden to worship those unto whom ye cry beside Allah since there have come unto me clear proofs from my Lord, and I am commanded to surrender to the Lord of the Worlds. He it is Who created you from dust, then from a drop of seed then from a clot, then bringeth you forth as a child, then ordaineth that ye attain full strength and afterward that ye become old men though some among you die before and that ye reach an appointed term, that haply ye may understand. 40:65-67 And who is better in speech than him who prayeth unto his Lord and doeth right, and saith: Lo! I am of those who surrender unto Him. The good deed and the evil deed are not alike. Repel the evil deed with one which is better, then lo! he, between whom and thee there was enmity (will become) as though he was a bosom friend. But none is granted it save those who are steadfast, and none is granted it save the owner of great happiness. And if a whisper from the devil reach thee O Muhammad then seek refuge in Allah. Lo! He is the Hearer, the Knower. 41:33-36 Lo! those who say: our Lord is Allah, and thereafter walk aright, there shall no fear come upon them neither shall they grieve. Such are rightful owners of the Garden, immortal thereafter as a reward for what they used to do. And We have commended unto man kindness toward parents. His mother beareth him with reluctance, and bringeth him forth with reluctance, and the bearing of him and the weaning of him is thirty months, till, when he attaineth full strength and reacheth forty years, he saith: My Lord! Arouse me that I may give thanks for the favor wherewith Thou hast favored me and my parents, and that I may do right acceptable unto Thee. And be gracious unto me In the matter of my seed. Lo! I have turned unto Thee repentant, and lo! I am of those who surrender unto Thee. Those are they from whom We accept the best of what they do, and overlook their evil deeds. They are among the owners of the Garden. This is the true promise which they were promised in the world. 46:13-16 And whoso saith unto his parents: Fie upon you both! Do ye threaten me that I shall be brought forth again when generations before me have passed away? And they twain cry unto Allah for help and say: Woe unto thee! Believe! Lo! the promise of Allah is true. But he saith: This is naught save fables of the men of old. 46:13-17 Lo! religion with Allah is The Surrender to His will and guidance. - Faris_Mee - 04-14-2006 And when a token cometh unto them, they say: We will not believe till we are given that which Allah's messengers are given. Allah knoweth best with whom to place His message. Humiliation from Allah and heavy punishment will smite the guilty for their scheming. And whomsoever it is Allah's will to guide, He expandeth his bosom unto the Surrender, and whomsoever it is His will to send astray, He maketh his bosom close and narrow as if he were engaged in sheer ascent (at the very thought of Islam). Thus Allah layeth ignominy upon those who believe not. This is the path of thy Lord, a straight path. We have detailed Our revelations for a people who take heed. 6:124-126 Unto Him belongeth whatsoever resteth in the night and the day. He is the Hearer, the Knower. Say: Shall I choose for a protecting friend other than Allah, the Originator of the heavens and the earth, who feedeth and is never fed? Say: I am ordered to be the first to surrender unto Him. And be not thou O Muhammad of the idolaters. Say: I fear, if I rebel against my Lord, the retribution of an Awful Day. 6:13-15 Say: Lo! As for me, my Lord hath guided me unto a straight path, a right religion, the community of Abraham, the upright, who was no idolater. Say: Lo! my worship and, my sacrifice and my living and my dying are for Allah, Lord of the Worlds. He hath no partner. This am I commanded, and I am first of those who surrender unto Him. 6:161-163 Say: Shall we cry, instead of unto Allah, unto that which neither profiteth us nor hurteth us, and shall we turn back after Allah hath guided us, like one bewildered whom the devils have infatuated in the earth, who hath companions who invite him to the guidance saying: Come unto us? Say: Lo! the guidance of Allah is Guidance, and we are ordered to surrender to the Lord of the Worlds, And to establish worship and ward off evil, and He it is unto Whom ye will be gathered. He it is Who created the heavens and the earth in truth. In that day when He saith: Be! it is. His word is the truth, and His will be the Sovereignty on the day when the trumpet is blown. Knower of the invisible and the visible, He is the Wise, the Aware. 6:71-73 Lo! religion with Allah is The Surrender to His will and guidance. - Faris_Mee - 04-14-2006 The Prophet said to me, <i>"Whenever you go to bed perform ablution like that for the prayer, lie or your right side and say;</i> <i>O Allah! I surrender to You and entrust all my affairs to You and depend upon You for Your Blessings both with hope and fear of You. There is no fleeing from You, and there is no place of protection and safety except with You O Allah! I believe in Your Qur'an which You have revealed and in Your Prophet whom You have sent. Then if you die on that very night, you will die with faith. Let the aforesaid words be your last utterance before sleep."</i> I repeated it before the Prophet and when I reached "O Allah I believe in Your Book which You have revealed." I said, "and your Apostle." The Prophet said, <i>"No, but say: 'Your Prophet whom You have sent', instead."</i> Narrated Al Bara bin Azib - Sahih Bukhari
