Holy
Qur’an
is Truth
“This is the Book;
in it is guidance sure,
without doubt,
to those who fear Allah;
who believe in the Unseen,
are steadfast in prayer,
and spend out of what We have provided for them;
and who believe in the Revelation sent to thee,
and sent before thy time,
and (in their hearts) have the assurance of the
Hereafter.
They are on (true guidance) from their Lord,
and it is these who will prosper.”
HOLY QUR’AN 2:1-5
"Soon will We
(Allah) show them
Our signs in the furthest regions (of the earth),
and in their own souls,
until it becomes manifest
to them that this is the Truth. . . .”
HOLY QUR’AN 41:53
“We (Allah) sent down the (Qur’an) in Truth,
ands in Truth has it descended:
And We send thee but to give glad tidings
and to warn (sinners).”
HOLY QUR’AN 17:105
“Praise be to Allah,
Who hath sent to His Servant
The Book,
and hath allowed therein no crookedness:
“(He hath made it) Straight (and clear) in order that He
may warn of a terrible punishment from Him,
and that He may give glad tidings
to the Believers who work righteous deeds,
that they shall have a goodly reward.
Further, that He may warn Those (also) who say:
“Allah hath begotten a son:
No knowledge have they of such a thing, nor had their fathers.
It is a grievous thing that issues from their mouths as a saying.
What they say is nothing but falsehood!”
HOLY QUR’AN 18:1-3
“. . . This day have I perfected your religion for you,
completed my favor upon you,
and have chosen for you
ISLAM
as your religion….”
HOLY QUR’AN 5:3
Holy Qur’an
Regarding
Christ and the Trinity
“O People of the Book!
Commit no excesses in your religion:
nor say of ALLAH aught but the truth.
Christ Jesus the son of Mary was (no more than)
A Messenger of ALLAH, and His Word, which he bestowed on Mary,
and a Spirit proceeding from Him: so believe in ALLAH and His
Messengers.
Say not “Trinity”:
desist: It will be better for you:
For ALLAH is One God:
Glory be to Him:
(Far Exalted is He) above having a son.
To Him belong all things in the heavens and on
earth.
And enough is ALLAH as a Disposer of affairs.”
HOLY QUR’AN 4:171
“In blasphemy indeed are those that say that
ALLAH is Christ the son of Mary.
Say: ‘Who then hast the
least power against ALLAH
if His Will were to destroy Christ the son of Mary, his
mother
and all¾everyone that is on the earth?
For to ALLAH belongeth the dominion of the heavens and the earth,
and all that is between.
He created what He pleaseth.
For ALLAH hath power over all things.’”
HOLY QUR’AN 5:17
Jesus Christ
Prophet¾Not Son
“Say: He is ALLAH,
The One and Only; ALLAH,
The Eternal, Absolute;
He begetteth not, Nor is He begotten;
And there is none like unto Him.”
HOLY QUR’AN Surah 112
(The Purity of Faith)
“In blasphemy indeed are those that say that
ALLAH is Christ the son of Mary.
Say: ‘Who then hast the
least power against ALLAH
if His Will were to destroy Christ the son of Mary,
his mother and all¾everyone thatis on the earth?
For to ALLAH belongeth the dominion of the heavens and the earth,
and all that is between.
He created what He pleaseth.
For ALLAH hath power over all things.’”
HOLY QUR’AN 5:17
“They do blaspheme who say:
‘ALLAH is Christ the son of Mary.’
But said Christ:‘O Children of Israel!
Worship ALLAH, my Lord and your Lord.’
Whoever joins other gods with ALLAH¾
ALLAH will forbid him the Garden,and the Fire will be his abode.
There will for the wrongdoers be no one to help.”
“They do blaspheme who say:
ALLAH is one of three in a Trinity;
for there is no god except One God.
If they desist not from their word (of blasphemy),
verily a grievous penalty will befall the blasphemers among them.
“Why turn they not to ALLAH and seek His forgiveness?
For ALLAH is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
“Christ. the son of Mary, was no more than a Messenger;
many were the Messengers that passed away before him.
His mother was a woman of truth.
They had both to eat their (daily) food.
See how ALLAH doth make His Signs clear to them;
Yet see in what ways they are deluded away from the truth!”
“Say: Will ye worship,
besides ALLAH,
something which hath no power either to harm or benefit you?
But Allah¾He it is that heareth and knoweth all things.
“Say: ‘O People of the Book!
Exceed not in your religion the bounds (of what is proper),
Trespassing beyond the truth
nor follow the vain desires of people who went wrong
in times gone by¾who misled many,
and strayed (themselves) from the even Way.”
HOLY QUR’AN 5:72-77
“And behold! ALLAH will say:
‘O Jesus, the son of Mary!
Didst thou say unto men,
‘Worship me and my mother as gods in derogation of ALLAH?’
He will say: ‘Glory to
Thee!
Never could I say what I had no right (to say).
Had I said such a thing, Thou wouldst indeed have known it.
Thou knowest what is in my heart though I know not what is in
Thine,
For Thou knowest in full all that is hidden.”
“Never said I to them aught
except what Thou didst command me to say, to wit,
‘Worship ALLAH, my Lord and your Lord’;
And I was a witness over them whilst I dwelt amongst them;
when Thou didst take me up Thou wast the Watcher over them,
and Thou art witness to all things.”
HOLY QUR’AN 5:116-117
“Say: ‘If (ALLAH) Most
Gracious had a son,
I would be the first to worship.’”
HOLY QUR’AN 43:81
“ ‘And exalted is the Majesty of our Lord:
He has taken neither a wife nor a son.”
HOLY QUR’AN 72:3
Forbidden Foods
“He hath only forbidden you dead meat,
and blood, and the flesh of swine
and that on which any other name hath been invoked
besides that of ALLAH.
But if one is forced by necessity, without willful disobedience,
Nor transgressing due limits¾then is he guiltless.
For ALLAH is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
HOLY QUR’AN 2:173
“So eat of (meats) on which ALLAH’S
Name hath been pronounced, if ye have faith in His signs.”
“Why should ye not eat of (meats) on which
ALLAH’S name hath been pronounced, when He hath
explained to you in detail what is forbidden to you¾
except under compulsion of neccessity?
But many do mislead (men) by their appetites unchecked
by knowledge. Thy Lord
knoweth best those who transgress.”
HOLY QUR’AN 6:118-119
“Eat not of (meats)
on which ALLAH’S Name hath not been pronounced:
That would be impiety.
But the evil ones ever inspire their friends
to contend with you if you were to obey them,
ye would indeed be Pagans.”
HOLY QUR’AN 6:121
“Say: ‘I find not in the Message received by me by inspiration
Any (meat) forbidden to be eaten by one who wishes to eat it,
unless it be dead meat, or blood poured forth,
or the flesh of swine¾for it is an abomination¾
or what is impious, (meat) on which a name has been invoked
other than ALLAH’S.” But
(even so), if a person
is forced by necessity, without willful disobedience,
nor transgressing due limits¾
Thy Lord is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
HOLY QUR’AN 6:145
Intoxicants and Gambling
“They ask thee concerning wine and gambling.
Say: ‘In them is great
sin, and some profit
for men; but the sin is greater than the profit.’
HOLY QUR’AN 2:219
“O ye who believe!
Intoxicants and gambling,
(Dedication of) stones,
and (divination by) arrows,
are an abomination¾
Of Satan’s handiwork;
Eschew such (abomination),
that ye may prosper.
“Satan’s plan is (but) to excite enmity and hatred
between you, with intoxicants and gambling,
and hinder you from the remembrance of ALLAH,
and from prayer:
Will ye not then abstain?”
HOLY QUR’AN 5:90-91
Adultery
“Nor come nigh to adultery:
For it is a shameful (deed)
And an evil, opening the road
(to other evils).”
HOLY QUR’AN 17:32
“The woman and the man
Guilty of adultery or fornication ¾
flog each of them with a hundred stripes:
Let not compassion move you in their case,
in a matter prescribed by ALLAH,
if ye believe in ALLAH and the Last Day:
And let a party of the believers
witness their punishment.”
HOLY QUR’AN 24:2
Guidance of Allah
“Those whom ALLAH (in His Plan)
willeth to guide¾He openeth their breast to
ISLAM;
those whom He willeth to leave straying¾
He maketh their breast close and constricted,
as if they had to climb up to the skies:
thus doth ALLAH (heap) the penalty
on those who refuse to believe.”
HOLY QUR’AN 6:125
Allah
is Creator
“It is ALLAH Who creates you
and takes your souls at death;
and of you there are some who are sent back to a feeble age,
so that they know nothing after having known (muh):
For ALLAH is All-Knowing, All-Powerful.”
HOLY QUR’AN 16:70
The Forgiveness of
Allah
“ALLAH forgiveth not
that partners should be set up with Him;
but He forgiveth anything else,
to whom He pleaseth;
To set up partners with ALLAH
is to devise a sin most heinous indeed.”
HOLY QUR’AN 4:48
“O ye who believe!
If ye fear ALLAH, He will grant you a Criterion
(to judge between right and wrong),
Remove from you (all) evil (that may afflict) you,
and forgive you:
For ALLAH is the LORD of Grace Unbounded.”
HOLY QUR’AN 8:29
“Be ye foremost (in seeking)
forgiveness from your Lord,
and a Garden (of Bliss)
the width whereof is
as the width of heaven and earth,
prepared for those who believe in ALLAH and His Messengers:
That is the Grace of ALLAH,
which He bestows on whom He pleases:
and
ALLAH is LORD of Grace abounding.”
HOLY QUR’AN 57:21
