ALLAH'S MESSAGE

Don't Count On False Patrons!

Lessons From The Quran
Allah’s Message For You:
Don’t Count On False Patrons!

Allah’s Party VS Devil’s Party

(Compiled by: M. Javed Naseem)

  
يٰأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ آمَنُواْ ٱرْكَعُواْ وَٱسْجُدُواْ وَاعْبُدُواْ
رَبَّكُمْ وَٱفْعَلُواْ ٱلْخَيْرَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُفْلِحُونَ
“O you who believe! Bow down, prostrate yourselves,
and adore your Lord; and do good, that you may prosper.”
(al-Quran 22:77)

وَجَاهِدُوا فِى ٱللَّهِ حَقَّ جِهَادِهِ هُوَ ٱجْتَبَاكُمْ وَمَا جَعَلَ عَلَيْكمْ فِى ٱلدِّينِ
مِنْ حَرَجٍ مِّلَّةَ أَبِيكُمْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ هُوَ سَمَّاكُمُ ٱلْمُسْلِمِينَ مِن قَبْلُ
وَفِى هَـٰذَا لِيَكُونَ ٱلرَّسُولُ شَهِيداً عَلَيْكُمْ وَتَكُونُواْ شُهَدَآءَ عَلَى ٱلنَّاسِ
فَأَقِيمُواْ ٱلصَّلواَةَ وَآتُواْ ٱلزَّكَواةَ وَٱعْتَصِمُواْ بِٱللَّهِ هُوَ مَوْلاَكُمْ
فَنِعْمَ ٱلْمَوْلَىٰ وَنِعْمَ ٱلنَّصِيرُ
“And strive in His cause as you ought to strive, (with
sincerity and under discipline). He has chosen you, and
has imposed no difficulties on you in religion; it is the
cult of your father Abraham. It is He Who has named you
Muslims, both before and in this (Revelation); that the
Messenger may be a witness for you, and you be witnesses
for mankind! So establish regular Prayer, give regular
Charity, and hold fast to Allah! He is your Protector –
the Best to protect and the Best to help!”
(al-Quran 22:78)

Dispute About Allah?

وَمِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ مَن يُجَادِلُ فِى ٱللَّهِ بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍ وَيَتَّبِعُ كُلَّ شَيْطَانٍ مَّرِيدٍ
“And yet among men there are such as dispute about
Allah, without knowledge, and follow every evil one
obstinate in rebellion (Shaitan)!”
(al-Quran 22:3)

ومِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ مَن يُجَادِلُ فِى ٱللَّهِ بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍ وَلاَ هُدًى وَلاَ كِتَابٍ مُّنِيرٍ
ثَانِىَ عِطْفِهِ لِيُضِلَّ عَن سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ لَهُ فِى ٱلدُّنْيَا خِزْيٌ
وَنُذِيقُهُ يَوْمَ ٱلْقِيَامَةِ عَذَابَ ٱلْحَرِيقِ
“Yet there is among men such a one as disputes about
Allah, without Knowledge, without Guidance, and
without a Book of Enlightenment, (disdainfully) bending
his side, in order to lead (men) astray from the Path of
Allah. For him there is disgrace in this life, and on the
Day of Judgment We shall make him taste the
Penalty of burning (Fire).”
(al-Quran 22:8-9)


أَلَمْ تَرَ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَسْجُدُ لَهُ مَن فِى ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ وَمَن فِى ٱلأَرْضِ
وَٱلشَّمْسُ وَٱلْقَمَرُ وَٱلنُّجُومُ وَٱلْجِبَالُ وَٱلشَّجَرُ وَٱلدَّوَآبُّ
وَكَثِيرٌ مِّنَ ٱلنَّاسِ وَكَثِيرٌ حَقَّ عَلَيْهِ ٱلْعَذَابُ وَمَن يُهِنِ ٱللَّهُ
فَمَا لَهُ مِن مُّكْرِمٍ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَفْعَلُ مَا يَشَآءُ
“See you not that to Allah bow down in worship all things
that are in the heavens and on earth – the sun, the moon,
the stars; the hills, the trees, the animals; and a great number
among mankind? But a great number are (also) such as are
fit for Punishment; and such as Allah shall disgrace, none
can raise to honor, for Allah carries out all that He wills.”
(al-Quran 22:18)


Don’t Count On False Patrons!

يٰأَيُّهَا ٱلنَّاسُ ضُرِبَ مَثَلٌ فَٱسْتَمِعُواْ لَهُ إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ تَدْعُونَ
مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ لَن يَخْلُقُواْ ذُبَاباً وَلَوِ ٱجْتَمَعُواْ لَهُ وَإِن يَسْلُبْهُمُ
ٱلذُّبَابُ شَيْئاً لاَّ يَسْتَنقِذُوهُ مِنْهُ ضَعُفَ ٱلطَّالِبُ وَٱلْمَطْلُوبُ
“O men! Here is a parable set forth! Listen to it!
Those on whom, besides Allah, you call, cannot create
(even) a fly, if they all met together for the purpose! And
if the fly should snatch away anything from them, they
would have no power to release it from the fly. Feeble
are those who petition and those whom they petition!”
(al-Quran 22:73)


What You Sow, So Shall You Reap!

كُتِبَ عَلَيْهِ أَنَّهُ مَن تَوَلاَّهُ فَأَنَّهُ يُضِلُّهُ وَيَهْدِيهِ إِلَىٰ عَذَابِ ٱلسَّعِيرِ
“About the (Evil One) it is decreed that whoever turns
to him for friendship, him will he lead astray, and he
will guide him to the Penalty of the Fire.”
(al-Quran 22:4)

ذٰلِكَ بِمَا قَدَّمَتْ يَدَاكَ وَأَنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَيْسَ بِظَلاَّمٍ لِّلعَبِيدِ
“(It will be said): "This is because of the deeds
which your hands sent forth, for verily Allah
is not unjust to His servants.”
(al-Quran 22:10)

The One Side (Party of Allah):

لاَّ تَجِدُ قَوْماً يُؤْمِنُونَ بِٱللَّهِ وَٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلآخِرِ يُوَآدُّونَ مَنْ حَآدَّ ٱللَّهَ
وَرَسُولَهُ وَلَوْ كَانُوۤاْ آبَآءَهُمْ أَوْ أَبْنَآءَهُمْ أَوْ إِخْوَانَهُمْ أَوْ عَشِيرَتَهُمْ
أُوْلَـٰئِكَ كَتَبَ فِى قُلُوبِهِمُ ٱلإِيمَانَ وَأَيَّدَهُمْ بِرُوحٍ مِّنْهُ وَيُدْخِلُهُمْ
جَنَّاتٍ تَجْرِى مِن تَحْتِهَا ٱلأَنْهَارُ خَالِدِينَ فِيهَا رَضِىَ ٱللَّهُ عَنْهُمْ
وَرَضُواْ عَنْهُ أُوْلَـٰئِكَ حِزْبُ ٱللَّهِ أَلاَ إِنَّ حِزْبَ ٱللَّهِ هُمُ ٱلْمُفْلِحُونَ
“You will not find any people who believe in Allah and the
Last Day, loving those who resist Allah and His Messenger,
even though they were their fathers or their sons, or their
brothers, or their kindred. For such, He has written Faith
in their hearts, and strengthened them with a spirit from
Himself. And He will admit them to Gardens beneath which
Rivers flow, to dwell therein (for ever). Allah will be well
pleased with them, and they with Him. They are the party of
Allah. Truly it is the party of Allah that will achieve Felicity.”
(al-Quran 58:22)

وَمَن يَتَوَلَّ ٱللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ وَٱلَّذِينَ آمَنُواْ فَإِنَّ حِزْبَ ٱللَّهِ هُمُ ٱلْغَالِبُونَ
“And whoso takes Allah and His messenger and those
who believe for guardian (will know that), lo! the party
of Allah, they are the victorious.”
(al-Quran 5:56)

إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يُدْخِلُ ٱلَّذِينَ آمَنُواْ وَعَمِلُواْ ٱلصَّالِحَاتِ جَنَّاتٍ تَجْرِى مِن
تَحْتِهَا ٱلأَنْهَارُ يُحَلَّوْنَ فِيهَا مِنْ أَسَاوِرَ مِن ذَهَبٍ وَلُؤْلُؤاً وَلِبَاسُهُمْ فِيهَا حَرِيرٌ
وَهُدُوۤاْ إِلَى ٱلطَّيِّبِ مِنَ ٱلْقَوْلِ وَهُدُوۤاْ إِلَىٰ صِرَاطِ ٱلْحَمِيدِ
“Allah will admit those who believe and work righteous
deeds, to Gardens beneath which rivers flow. They shall
be adorned therein with bracelets of gold and pearls;
and their garments there will be of silk. 
For they have been guided (in this life) to the purest of
speeches; they have been guided to the Path of Him
Who is Worthy of (all) Praise.”
(al-Quran 22:23-24)

فَٱلَّذِينَ آمَنُواْ وَعَمِلُواْ ٱلصَّالِحَاتِ لَهُمْ مَّغْفِرَةٌ وَرِزْقٌ كَرِيمٌ 
"Those who believe and work righteousness, for them
is forgiveness and a sustenance most generous.”
(al-Quran 22:50)

ٱلْمُلْكُ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِلَّهِ يَحْكُمُ بَيْنَهُمْ فَٱلَّذِينَ آمَنُواْ
وَعَمِلُواْ ٱلصَّالِحَاتِ فِى جَنَّاتِ ٱلنَّعِيمِ 
“On that day, the dominion will be that of Allah.
He will judge between them, so those who believe and
work righteous deeds will be in Gardens of Delight.”
(al-Quran 22:56)

ذٰلِكَ وَمَنْ عَاقَبَ بِمِثْلِ مَا عُوقِبَ بِهِ ثُمَّ بُغِىَ
عَلَيْهِ لَيَنصُرَنَّهُ ٱللَّهُ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَعَفُوٌّ غَفُورٌ
“That (is so). And if one has retaliated to no greater
extent than the injury he received, and is again set upon
inordinately, Allah will help him; for Allah is the One
that blots out (sins) and forgives (again and again).”
(al-Quran 22:60)

The Other Side (Party of Shaitan):

هَـٰذَانِ خَصْمَانِ ٱخْتَصَمُواْ فِى رَبِّهِمْ فَٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ
قُطِّعَتْ لَهُمْ ثِيَابٌ مِّن نَّارِ يُصَبُّ مِن فَوْقِ رُءُوسِهِمُ ٱلْحَمِيمُ
“These two antagonists dispute with each other about
their Lord. But those who deny (their Lord), for them
will be cut out a garment of Fire; over their heads will
be poured out boiling water.
(al-Quran 22:19)

يُصْهَرُ بِهِ مَا فِى بُطُونِهِمْ وَٱلْجُلُودُ 
With it will be scalded what is within their bodies,
as well as (their) skins.
(al-Quran 22:20)

وَلَهُمْ مَّقَامِعُ مِنْ حَدِيدٍ 
In addition there will be maces of iron (to punish) them.
(al-Quran 22:21)

كُلَّمَآ أَرَادُوۤاْ أَن يَخْرُجُواْ مِنْهَا مِنْ غَمٍّ أُعِيدُواْ فِيهَا وَذُوقُواْ عَذَابَ ٱلْحَرِيقِ
Every time they wish to get away from it, (or) from
anguish, they will be forced back therein, and (it will
be said): "Taste you the Penalty of Burning!"
(al-Quran 22:22

وَٱلَّذِينَ سَعَوْاْ فِيۤ آيَاتِنَا مُعَاجِزِينَ أُوْلَـٰئِكَ أَصْحَابُ ٱلْجَحِيمِ 
"But those who strive against Our Signs, to frustrate
them, they will be Companions of the Fire."
(al-Quran 22:51)

وَلاَ يَزَالُ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ فِى مِرْيَةٍ مِّنْهُ حَتَّىٰ تَأْتِيَهُمُ
ٱلسَّاعَةُ بَغْتَةً أَوْ يَأْتِيَهُمْ عَذَابُ يَوْمٍ عَقِيمٍ 
“Those who reject Faith will not cease to be in doubt
concerning (Revelation) until the Hour (of Judgment)
comes suddenly upon them, or there comes to them
the Penalty of a Day of Disaster.”
(al-Quran 22:55)

وَٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ وَكَذَّبُواْ بِآياتِنَا فَأُوْلَـٰئِكَ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ مُّهِينٌ 
“And for those who reject Faith and deny our Signs,
there will be a humiliating Punishment.”
(al-Quran 22:57)

وَإِذَا تُتْلَىٰ عَلَيْهِمْ آيَاتُنَا بَيِّنَاتٍ تَعْرِفُ فِى وُجُوهِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ
ٱلْمُنْكَرَ يَكَادُونَ يَسْطُونَ بِٱلَّذِينَ يَتْلُونَ عَلَيْهِمْ آيَاتُنَا قُلْ أَفَأُنَبِّئُكُم
بِشَرٍّ مِّن ذٰلِكُمُ ٱلنَّارُ وَعَدَهَا ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ وَبِئْسَ ٱلْمَصِيرُ
“When Our Clear Signs are rehearsed to them, you will
notice a denial on the faces of the Unbelievers! They nearly
attack with violence those who rehearse Our Signs to them.
Say: Shall I tell you of something (far) worse than these
Signs? It is the Fire (of Hell)! Allah has promised it to the
Unbelievers! And evil is that destination!"
(al-Quran 22:72)

ٱسْتَحْوَذَ عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلشَّيْطَانُ فَأَنسَاهُمْ ذِكْرَ ٱللَّهِ أُوْلَـٰئِكَ
حِزْبُ الشَّيْطَانِ أَلاَ إِنَّ حِزْبَ الشَّيْطَانِ هُمُ الخَاسِرُونَ
“The Evil One (Shaitan) has got the better of them,
so he has made them lose the remembrance of Allah.
They are the party of the Evil One (Shaitan). Truly, it
is the party of the Evil One (Shaitan) that will perish!”
(al-Quran 58:19) 


Think A Million Times Before You Join!
(The Party of Allah or The Party of Shaitan?)

وَٱلَّذِينَ هَاجَرُواْ فِى سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ ثُمَّ قُتِلُوۤاْ أَوْ مَاتُواْ
لَيَرْزُقَنَّهُمُ ٱللَّهُ رِزْقاً حَسَناً وَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَهُوَ خَيْرُ ٱلرَّازِقِينَ 
“Those who leave their homes in the cause of Allah,
and are then slain or die, on them will Allah bestow
verily a goodly Provision. Truly Allah is He
Who bestows the best provision.”
(al-Quran 22:58)

لَيُدْخِلَنَّهُمْ مُّدْخَلاً يَرْضَوْنَهُ وَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَعَلِيمٌ حَلِيمٌ 
“Verily He will admit them to a place with which
they shall be well pleased, for Allah is All-Knowing,
Most Forbearing.”
(al-Quran 22:59)

Garment of Fire or Garment of Silk?
Your Choice!


هَـٰذَانِ خَصْمَانِ ٱخْتَصَمُواْ فِى رَبِّهِمْ فَٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ
قُطِّعَتْ لَهُمْ ثِيَابٌ مِّن نَّارِ يُصَبُّ مِن فَوْقِ رُءُوسِهِمُ ٱلْحَمِيمُ

their Lord. But those who deny (their Lord), for them
will be cut out a garment of Fire; over their heads will
be poured out boiling water.”

مِن تَحْتِهَا ٱلأَنْهَارُ يُحَلَّوْنَ فِيهَا مِنْ أَسَاوِرَ مِن ذَهَبٍ
وَلُؤْلُؤاً وَلِبَاسُهُمْ فِيهَا حَرِيرٌ
“Allah will admit those who believe and work righteous
deeds, to Gardens beneath which rivers flow. They shall
be adorned therein with bracelets of gold and pearls;
and their garments there will be of silk.”
