(Surah 10, Yunus, verse 61).

54) It is He Who doth show you the lightning, by way both of fear and of hope: It is He Who doth raise up the clouds, heavy with (fertilising) rain! (Surah 13, Al- Ra’d, verse 12).

55) Of the bounties of thy Lord We bestow freely on all- These as well as those: The bounties of thy Lord are not closed (to anyone). See how We have bestowed more on some than on

others; but verily the Hereafter is more in rank and gradation and more in excellence.( (Surah 17, Bani Isra-il, verse 20-21).

59) Seest thou not that Allah has made subject to you (men) all that is on the earth, and the ships that sail through the sea by His Command? He withholds the sky (rain) from failing on the earth except by His leave: for Allah is Most Kind and Most Merciful to man. (Surah 22, Al-Hajj, verse 65).

60) It is Allah Who has created the heavens and the earth, and all between them, in six Days, and is firmly established on the Throne (of authority); ye have none, besides Him, to protect or intercede (for you): will ye not then receive admonition? He rules (all) affairs from the heavens to the earth: in the end will (all affairs) go up to Him, on a Day, the space whereof will be (as) a thousand years of your reckoning. (Surah 32, Al-Sajdah, verses 4-5).

61) He created you (all) from a single Person: then created, of like nature, his mate; and he sent down for you eight head of cattle in pairs: He makes you, in the wombs of your mothers, in stages, one after another, in three veils of darkness. Such is Allah, your Lord and Cherisher: to Him belongs (all) dominion. There is no god but He: then how are ye turned away (from your true Centre)? (Surah 39, Az-Zumar, verse 6).

62)  Now, when trouble touches man, he cries to Us: But when We bestow a favour upon

him as from Ourselves, he says, "This has been given to me because of a certain knowledge (I have)!" Nay, but this is but a trial, but most of them understand not! (Surah 39, Al-Zumar, verse 49).

63) Man does not weary of asking for good (things), but if ill touches him, he gives up all hope (and) is lost in despair.(Surah 41, Ha-Mim, verse 49).

65) Is it they who would portion out the Mercy of thy Lord? It is We Who portion out between them their livelihood in the life of this world: and We raise some of them above others in ranks, so that some may command work from others. But the Mercy of thy Lord is better than the (wealth) which they amass. (Surah 43, Al-Zukhruf, verse 32).

66) They will be of no use to thee in the sight of Allah. It is only Wrong-doers (that stand as) protectors, one to another: but Allah is the Protector of the Righteous. (Surah 45, Al-Jathiya, verse 19).

67) Behold, ye are those invited to spend (of your substance) in the Way of Allah. But among you are some that are niggardly. But any who are niggardly are so at the expense of their own souls. But Allah is free of all wants, and it is ye that are needy. If ye turn back (from the Path), He will substitute in your stead another people; then they would not be like you! (Surah 47, Muhammad, verse 38).

68) They impress on thee as a favour that they have embraced Islam. Say, "Count not your Islam as a favour upon me: Nay, Allah has conferred a favour upon you that He has guided you to the faith, if ye be true and sincere.” (Surah 49, Al-Hujurat, verse 17).

69)  See ye the water which ye drink? Do ye bring it down (in rain) from the cloud or do

We?  Were it Our Will, We could make it salty (and unpalatable): then why do ye not give thanks? See ye the Fire which ye kindle? Is it ye who grow the tree which feeds the fire, or do We grow it? We have made it a memorial (of Our handiwork), and an article of comfort and convenience for the denizens of deserts. Then celebrate with praises the name of thy Lord, the Supreme! (Surah 56, Al Waqi’ah, verses 68 to 74).

70) And He provides for him from (sources) he never could imagine. And if any one puts his trust in Allah, sufficient is (Allah) for him. For Allah will surely accomplish his purpose: verily, for all things has Allah appointed a due proportion. (Surah 65, Al-Talaq, verse 3).

72) Say: "It is He Who has created you (and made you grow), and made for you the

faculties of hearing, seeing, feeling and understanding: little thanks it is ye give.(Surah 67, Al-Mulk, verse 23).

73) And We have set none but angels as Guardians of the Fire; and We have fixed their number only as a trial for Unbelievers, - in order that the People of the Book may arrive at certainty, and the Believers may increase in Faith, - and that no doubts may be left for the People of the Book and the Believers, and that those in whose hearts is a disease and the Unbelievers may say, "What symbol doth Allah intend by this?" Thus doth Allah leave to stray whom He pleaseth, and guide whom He pleaseth: and none can know the forces of thy Lord, except He. And this is no other than a warning to mankind. (Surah 74, Al_Mudassir, verse 31).

74) Nay, this surely is an admonition: Let any who will, keep it in remembrance! (Surah 74, Al-Mudassir, verses 54-55).

75) Nay, (ye men!) but ye love the fleeting life, and leave alone the Hereafter. (Surah 75, Al-Qiyamah, verses 20-21).

76) Does man think that he will be left uncontrolled, (without purpose)? (Surah 75, Al-Qiyamah, verse 36).

77) Verily We created Man from a drop of mingled sperm, in order to try him: So We gave him (the gifts) of Hearing and Sight. We showed him the Way: whether he be grateful or

ungrateful (rests on his will). (Surah 76, Al-Insan, verse 2-3).

78) Now, as for man, when his Lord trieth him, giving him honour and gifts, then saith he, (puffed up), "My Lord hath honoured me." But when He trieth him, restricting his subsistence for him, then saith he (in despair), "My Lord hath humiliated me!" Nay, nay! But ye honour not the orphans! Nor do ye encourage one another to feed the poor! - And ye devour inheritance - all with greed, And ye love wealth with inordinate love! (Surah 89, Al-Fajr, verses 15 to 20).

79) And Hell, that Day, is brought (face to face), - on that Day will man remember, but how will that remembrance profit him? He will say: "Ah! Would that I had sent forth (good deeds) for (this) my (Future) Life!" For, that Day, His Chastisement will be such as none (else) can inflict, And His bonds will be such as none (other) can bind. (Surah 89, Al-Fajr, verses 23 to 26).

80) We have indeed created man in the best of moulds, Then do We abase him (to be) the lowest of the low, - (Surah 95, Al-Tin, verses 4-5).

81) Say: I seek refuge with the Lord of the Dawn From the mischief of created things; from the mischief of Darkness as it overspreads; from the mischief of those who practice Secret Arts; And from the mischief of the envious one as he practices envy (Surah 113, Al-Falak, verses 1 to 5).

82) Say: I seek refuge with the Lord and Cherisher of Mankind, (The King (or Ruler) of Mankind, The Allah (or Judge) of Mankind From the mischief of the Whisperer (of Evil),

who withdraws (after his whisper),-,-  (The same) who whispers into the hearts of Mankind,- Among Jinns and among Men.(Surah 114, Al-Nas, verses 1 to 6).

83) If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (submission to Allah), never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter He will be in the ranks of those who have lost (all spiritual good). (Surah 3, Al-Imran, verse 85).

84) If thy Lord had so willed, He could have made mankind one people: but they will not cease to dispute. (Surah 11, Hud, verse 118).

85) And they became divided only after Knowledge reached them, - through selfish envy as between themselves. Had it not been for a Word that went forth before from thy Lord, (tending) to a Term appointed, the matter would have been settled between them: But truly those who have inherited the Book after them are in suspicious (disquieting) doubt concerning it. (Surah 42, Al-Shura, verse 14).

86) Revile not ye those whom they call upon besides Allah, lest they out of spite revile Allah in their ignorance. Thus have We made alluring to each people its own doings. In the end will they return to their Lord, and We shall then tell them the truth of all that they did. (Surah 6, Al-An’am, verse 108).

88) Narrated Abu Huraira : Allah's Apostle (Peace be upon him) said, "Every child is born with a true faith of Islam (i.e. to worship none but Allah Alone) but his parents convert him to Judaism, Christianity or Magiainism, as an animal delivers a perfect baby animal. Do you find it mutilated?" Then Abu Huraira recited the holy verses: "The pure Allah's Islamic nature (true faith of Islam) (i.e. worshipping none but Allah) with which He has created human beings. No change can there be in the religion of Allah (i.e. joining none in worship with Allah). That is the straight religion (Islam) but most of men know, not."

'Umar bin Al-Khattab asked (Allah's Apostle (Peace be upon him)), "What has been affirmed?" He replied, "You praised this, so Paradise has been affirmed to him; and you spoke badly of this, so Hell has been affirmed to him. You people are Allah's witnesses on earth."

98) It is narrated on the authority of 'Abdullah b. Umar that the Messenger of Allah observed: O womenfolk, you should give charity and ask much forgiveness for I saw you in bulk amongst
the dwellers of Hell. A wise lady among them said: Why is it, Messenger of Allah, that we women are more in number in Hell? Upon this the Holy Prophet observed: You curse too much and are ungrateful to your spouses. I have seen none lacking in common sense and failing in religion but (at the same time) robbing the wisdom of the wise, besides you. Upon this the woman remarked: What is wrong with our common sense and with religion? He (the Holy Prophet) observed: Your lack of common sense (can be well judged from the fact) that the evidence of two women is equal to one man, that is a proof of the lack of common sense, and you spend some nights (and days) in which you do not offer prayer and in the month of Ramadan (during the days) you do not observe fast, that is a failing in religion. This hadith has been narrated on the authority of Abu Tahir with this chain of transmitters.
