The Journey

We send down the Quran as a healing and mercy for the believers

“Every day He is in a new state of glory.”

“And never say about anything, “I will do that tomorrow,” without adding, “if Allah so wills!””

You never know, perhaps Allah will bring about a change ˹of heart˺ later.

“And He is the All-Forgiving, the All-Loving”

“Be mindful of Allah, and Allah will teach you. And Allah is All-Knowing of everything.”

Do not falter or grieve, for you will have the upper hand

“Our Lord, perfect for us our light”

“And those who restrain anger, and those who forgive people”

“And remember your Lord if you forget”

“By Dawn”

“To God belongs the future of the heavens and the earth, and to Him all authority goes back. So worship Him, and rely on Him. Your Lord is never unaware of what you do.”

“Indeed, We created humans in the best form.”

With hardship comes ease.

Say, “Nothing will ever befall us except what Allah has destined for us. He is our Protector.” So in Allah let the believers put their trust. 

“And speak nicely to people”

Do not follow what you have no ˹sure˺ knowledge of. Indeed, all will be called to account for ˹their˺ hearing, sight, and intellect.

“O yehia, move with the scripture with strength”

“Place your trust in Allah. Surely, Allah loves those who place their trust in Him.”

“So whoever does an atom’s weight of good will see it.”

“The ˹Prophet’s˺ heart did not doubt what he saw.”

If you act rightly, it is for your own good.

“He said, “My Lord, put my heart at peace for me * And ease my task for me * And untie the knot from my tongue * So they can understand my speech”

“Our Lord! Grant us mercy from Yourself and guide us rightly through our ordeal.”

He is Allah: the Creator, the Inventor, the Shaper. He ˹alone˺ has the Most Beautiful Names. Whatever is in the heavens and the earth ˹constantly˺ glorifies Him. And He is the Almighty, All-Wise

“Do they not see that We made the night for them to rest in and the day bright?”

˹Allah will say to the righteous,˺ “O tranquil soul! Return to your Lord, well pleased ˹with Him˺ and well pleasing ˹to Him˺. So join My servants, and enter My Paradise.”

“And He has made me blessed wheresoever I be, and has enjoined on me Salat (prayer), and Zakat, as long as I live.”

“These are upon guidance from their Lord. These are the successful.”

“My Lord! Increase me in knowledge.”

He merges the night into day and the day into night. And He knows best what is ˹hidden˺ in the heart.

Had We not made you steadfast, you probably would have inclined to them a little,

 ”It is they who have traded guidance for misguidance, so their trade was not profitable, and they are not guided.”

The One who taught by the pen

“The example of those who spend their wealth in the cause of Allah is that of a grain that sprouts into seven ears, each bearing one hundred grains. And Allah multiplies ˹the reward even more˺ to whoever He wills.”

And He is the One Who created the day and the night, the sun and the moon – each travelling in an orbit.

“The human being was created of haste. I will show you My signs, so do not seek to rush Me.”

O humanity! Indeed, We created you from a male and a female, and made you into peoples and tribes so that you may ˹get to˺ know one another. Surely the most noble of you in the sight of Allah is the most righteous among you. Allah is truly All-Knowing, All-Aware

The seven heavens, the earth, and all those in them glorify Him. There is not a single thing that does not glorify His praises—but you ˹simply˺ cannot comprehend their glorification. He is indeed Most Forbearing, All-Forgiving.

“Thus We made you a moderate community, that you may be witnesses to humanity, and that the Messenger may be a witness to you.”

“Who is ˹rightly˺ guided: the one who crawls facedown or the one who walks upright on the Straight Path?”

Whatever good befalls you is from Allah and whatever evil befalls you is from yourself

“So remember Me, and I will remember you.”

and recite the Quran ˹properly˺ in a measured way

“Indeed, We have granted you a clear triumph ˹O Prophet˺”

“So eat and drink, and put your heart at ease. But if you see any of the people, say, ‘I have vowed silence to the Most Compassionate, so I am not talking to anyone today.’”

“He has ordained for you ˹believers˺ the Way which He decreed for Noah, and what We have revealed to you ˹O Prophet˺ and what We decreed for Abraham, Moses, and Jesus,1 ˹commanding:˺ “Uphold the faith, and make no divisions in it.”

When the Quran is recited, listen to it attentively and be silent, so you may be shown mercy.

“Have they not travelled throughout the land so their hearts may reason, and their ears may listen? Indeed, it is not the eyes that are blind, but it is the hearts in the chests that grow blind.”

And He taught Adam the names, all of them

“And We created from water every living thing. Will they not then believe?”

“Indeed, We have placed constellations in the sky, and adorned it for all to see.”

“Had We sent this Quran down on a mountain, you would have seen it trembling, crumbling in awe of God. These parables We cite for the people, so that they may reflect.”

“By the morning sunlight”

“Allah does not change a people’s condition unless they change their inner selves.”

“But whoever turns away from My Reminder will certainly have a miserable life”

“as there are within yourselves. Can you not see?”

“Competition for more ˹gains˺ diverts you ˹from Allah”

“O you who believe, remember God with frequent remembrance.”

“And We have commanded people to ‘honour’ their parents. Their mothers bore them through hardship upon hardship, and their weaning takes two years. So be grateful to Me and your parents. To Me is the final return.”

‘Remember˺ when your Lord said to the angels, “I am going to place a successive ˹human˺ authority on earth.”

“Allah ˹alone˺ caused you to grow from the earth like a plant.”

“Perhaps you dislike something which is good for you and like something which is bad for you. Allah knows and you do not know.”

“And when My servants ask you about Me, I Am near; I answer the call of the caller when he calls on Me. So let them answer Me, and have faith in Me, that they may be rightly guided.”

“Indeed, ˹it is˺ We ˹Who˺ sent this ˹Quran˺ down on the Night of Glory.

And what will make you realize what the Night of Glory is?

The Night of Glory is better than a thousand months.”

“And keep yourself patient [by being] with those who call upon their Lord in the morning and the evening, seeking His countenance.”

“We are closer to them than ˹their˺ jugular vein.”

“Follow what is revealed to you from your Lord. Surely Allah is All-Aware of what you ˹all˺ do.”

“And proclaim the blessings of your Lord.”

“So be patient with your Lord’s decree, for you are truly under Our ˹watchful˺ Eyes.”

“And they ask you, [O Muhammad], about the soul. Say, “The soul is of the affair of my Lord. And mankind have not been given of knowledge except a little.”

“And that each person will only have what they endeavoured towards – and that the outcome of˺ their endeavours will be seen ˹in their record – then they will be fully rewarded”

“He is God; besides Whom there is no god; the Sovereign, the Holy, the Peace-Giver, the Faith-Giver, the Overseer, the Almighty, the Omnipotent, the Overwhelming. Glory be to God, beyond what they associate.  – He is God; the Creator, the Maker, the Designer. His are the Most Beautiful Names.”

“And say, ‘Truth has come, and falsehood has vanished. Indeed, falsehood is bound to vanish.”

“Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “If you ˹sincerely˺ love Allah, then follow me; Allah will love you”
