THE OPENING
In the name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful. Praise belongs to God, Lord of all
Worlds, the Compassionate, the Merciful. Master of the Day of Judgement. It is you we
worship; it is you we ask for help. Guide us to the straight path, the path of those you
have blessed, those who incur no anger and who have not gone astray.
[Chapter 1, Verses 1-7]

QURAN
This is the Book in which there is no doubt, containing guidance for those who are
mindful of God, who believe in the unseen, keep up the prayer, and give out of what We
have provided for them; those who believe in the revelation sent down to you [Muhammad],
and in what was sent before you, those who have firm faith in the Hereafter. Such
people are following their Lord’s guidance and it is they who will prosper.
[Chapter 2, Verses 2-5]

Clinging Substance
Read in the name of your Lord who created - created human beings from a clinging
substance. Read, and your Lord is the Most Generous - Who taught by the pen – He
taught human beings what they didn’t know before.
[Chapter 96, Verses 1-5]

Morning Brightness
By the sun in its morning brightness and by the moon as it follows it, by the day as it
displays the sun’s glory and by the night as it conceals it, by the sky and how He built it
and by the earth and how He spread it, and by the soul and its balanced (nature) and its
innate awareness (of right and wrong).The one who purifies his soul succeeds and the
one who corrupts it fails. [Chapter 91, Verses 1-10]

GOD
Say, “He is God the One, God the eternal. He does not give birth nor was He born and there is nothing like him.” [Chapter 112, Verses 1-4]

BALANCE
It is the Lord of mercy who taught the Quran, He created the human being and taught him to communicate. The sun and the moon follow their calculated courses, the plants and the trees submit to his designs; and the heaven He raised and imposed the balance so that you may not exceed in the balance. Weigh with justice and do not fall short in the balance. He set down the earth for his creatures with its fruits, its palm trees and sheathed clusters, its husked grain, its fragrant plants, so which of your Lord’s favours will you deny? [Chapter 55, Verses 1-13]

NATURE
It is God who splits open the seed and the fruit stone: He brings out the living from the dead and the dead from the living– that is God– so how can you turn away from the truth? He makes the dawn break; He makes the night for rest; and He made the sun and the moon to a precise measure. That is the design of the Almighty, the All Knowing. It is He who made the stars, so that they can guide you when land and sea are dark: We have made the signs clear for those who have knowledge. It is He who first produced you from a single soul, then gave you a place to stay [in life] and a resting place [after death]. We have made Our revelations clear to those who understand. It is He who sends down water from the sky. With it We produce the shoots of each plant, then bring greenery from it, and from that We bring out grains, one riding on the other in closepacked rows. From the date palm come clusters of low-hanging dates, and there aregardens of vines, olives, and pomegranates, alike yet different. Watch their fruits as they grow and ripen! In all this there are signs for those who would believe.
[Chapter 6, Verses 95-99]

Signs of God
So celebrate God’s glory in the evening, in the morning, praise is due to Him in the heavens and the earth, in the late afternoon, and at midday. He brings the living out of the dead and the dead out of the living. He gives life to the earth after death, and you will be brought out in the same way. One of His signs is that He created you from dust and – lo and behold! – you became human and scattered far and wide. Another of His signs is that He created spouses from among yourselves for you to live with in tranquility: He ordained love and kindness between you. There truly are signs in this for those who reflect. Another of His signs is the creation of the heavens and earth, and the diversity of your languages and colours. There truly are signs in this for those who know. Among His signs are your sleep, by night and by day, and your seeking His bounty. There are signs in this for those who listen. Among His signs, too, are that He shows you the lightning that terrifies and inspires hope; that He sends water down from the sky to restore the earth to life after death. There truly are signs in this for those who use their reason. Among His signs, too, is the fact that the heavens and the earth stand firm by His command. In the end, you will all emerge when He calls you from the earth. Everyone in the heavens and earth belongs to Him, and all are obedient to Him. He is the One who originates creation and will do it again– this is even easier for Him. He is above all comparison in the heavens and earth; He is the Almighty, the All Wise.
[Chapter 30, Verses 17-27]

Purpose
[He] who created death and life to test you [as to] which of you is best in deed- and He is the Exalted in Might, the Forgiving - [and] who created seven heavens in layers. You do not see in the creation of the Most Merciful any inconsistency. So return [your] vision
[to the sky]; do you see any breaks? Then return [your] vision twice again. [Your] vision
will return to you humbled while it is fatigued. And We have certainly beautified the
nearest heaven with stars [Chapter 67, Verses 2-5]

Reflection
Your Lord is God, who created the heavens and earth in six stages, then established Himself on the throne; He makes the night cover the day in swift pursuit; He created the sun, moon, and stars to be subservient to His command; all creation and command belong to Him. Exalted be God, Lord of all the worlds! Call on your Lord humbly and privately– He does not like those who transgress His bounds: do not corrupt the earth after it has been set right– call on Him fearing and hoping. The mercy of God is close to those who do good. It is God who sends the winds, bearing good news of His coming grace, and when they have gathered up the heavy clouds, We drive them to a dead land where We cause rain to fall, bringing out all kinds of crops, just as We shall bring out the dead. Will you not reflect? Vegetation comes out of good land in abundance, by the will of its Lord, but out of bad land only scantily: We explain Our Revelations in various ways to those who give thanks. [Chapter 7, Verses 54-58]

Creation of the Universe
Are the disbelievers not aware that the heavens and the earth were once fused together in a single piece, and then We split them apart? We made every living thing from water? So won’t they believe? And We put firm mountains on the earth, lest it should sway under them, and set broad paths on it, so that they might follow the right direction,and We made the sky a protected ceiling, but they, from its signs, are turning away. It is He who created night and day, the sun and the moon, each floating in its orbit. We have not granted everlasting life to any other human being before you either [O Muhammad]if you die, will [the disbelievers] live for ever? Every soul is certain to taste death: We test you all through the bad and the good, and to Us you will all return.
[Chapter 21, Verses 30-35]

The Shadow
Do you not see how your Lord lengthens the shadow? If He had willed, He could have made it stand still– We made the sun its indicator– but We gradually draw it towards Us,little by little. [Chapter 25, Verses 45-46]

Observation
Do the disbelievers not see how rain clouds are formed, how the heavens are lifted, how the mountains are raised high, how the earth is spread out? So remind, [O Muhammad]; you are only a reminder. You are not over them a controller. [Chapter 88, Verses 17-22]

Using Reason
This Book is sent down from God, the Mighty, the Wise. There are signs in the heavens and the earth for those who believe: in the creation of you, in the creatures God scattered on earth, there are signs for people of sure faith; in the alternation of night and day, in the rain God provides, sending it down from the sky and reviving the dead earth with it, and in His shifting of the winds there are signs for those who use their reason. Theseare God’s signs that We recount to you [O Muhammad, to show] the Truth. If they deny God and His revelations, what message will they believe in? [Chapter 45, Verses 2-6]

Disgrace
Had your Lord willed, all the people on earth would have believed. So can you [O Muhammad] compel people to believe? No soul can believe except by God’s will, and He brings disgrace on those who do not use their reason. Say, “Observe what is in the heavens and earth.” But of no avail will be signs or warners to a people who do not believe. So do they wait except for like [what occurred in] the days of those who passed on before them? Say, “Then wait; indeed, I am with you among those who wait.”
[Chapter 10, Verses 99-102]

God's Oneness

Say, “Praise be to God and peace on the servants He has chosen. Who is better: God,or those they set up as partners with Him? Who created the heavens and earth? Who sends down water from the sky for you– with which We cause gardens of delight to grow: you have no power to make the trees grow in them– is it another god beside God? No! But they are people who take others to be equal with God. Who is it that made the earth a stable place to live? Who made rivers flow through it? Who set immovable mountains on it and created a barrier between the fresh and salt water? Is it another god beside God? No! But most of them do not know. Who is it that answers the distressed when they call upon Him? Who removes their suffering? Who makes you successors in the earth? Is it another god beside God? Little notice you take! Who is it that guides you through the darkness on land and sea? Who sends the winds as heralds of good news before His mercy? Is it another god beside God? God is far above the partners they put beside him! Who is it that creates life and reproduces it? Who is it that gives you provision from the heavens and earth? Is it another god beside God?” Say, “Show me your evidence then, if what you say is true.” Say, “No one in the heavens or on earth knows the unseen except God.” They do not know when they will be raised from the dead: their knowledge cannot comprehend the Hereafter; they are in doubt about it; they are blind to it. So the disbelievers say, “What! When we and our forefathers have become dust, shall we be brought back to life again? We have heard such promises before, and so did our forefathers. These are just ancient fables.” [Chapter 27, Verses 59-68]

tbaba1234: God’s Names

If We had sent this Quran down to a mountain, you would have seen it humbled and split apart in its awe of God: We offer people such illustrations so that they may reflect. He is God: there is no god other than Him. It is He who knows what is hidden as well as what is in the open, He is the Lord of Mercy, the Giver of Mercy. He is God: there is no god other than Him, the Controller, the Holy One, Source of Peace, Granter of Security, Guardian over all, the Almighty, the Compeller, the Truly Great; God is far above anything they consider to be His partner. He is God: the Creator, the Originator, the Shaper. The best names belong to Him. Everything in the heavens and earth glorifies Him: He is the Almighty, the Wise. [Chapter 59, Verses 21-24]


Light
God is the Light of the heavens and earth. His Light is like this: there is a niche, and in it a lamp, the lamp inside a glass, a glass like a glittering star, fuelled from a blessed olive tree from neither east nor west, whose oil almost gives light even when no fire touches it– light upon light– God guides whoever He will to his Light; God draws such comparisons for humankind; God has full knowledge of everything. [Chapter 24, Verses 35]

When in Need

Everything in the heavens and earth belongs to God. God is self-sufficient and worthy of all praise. If all the trees on earth were pens and all the seas, with seven more seas besides, [were ink,] still God’s words would not run out: God is Almighty and All Wise. Creating and resurrecting all of you is only like creating or resurrecting a single soul: God is All Hearing and All Seeing. Do you not see that God causes the night to merge into day and the day to merge into night; that He has subjected the sun and the moon, each to run its course for a stated term; that He is aware of everything you [people] do? This is because God is the Truth, and what they invoke beside Him is false. He is the Most High, Most Great. Do you not see that ships sail through the sea, by the grace of God, to show you [people] some of His wonders? Truly there are signs in this for every steadfast, thankful person. When the waves loom over those on board like giant shadows they call out to God, devoting their religion entirely to Him. But, when He has delivered them safely to land, some of them waver– only a treacherous, thankless person refuses to acknowledge Our signs. O Humankind, be mindful of your Lord and fear a day when no parent will take the place of their child, nor a child take the place of their parent, in any way. God’s promise is true, so do not let the present life delude you, nor let the deceiver delude you about God. [Chapter 31, Verses 26-33]

God’s Knowledge
He has the keys to the unseen: no one knows them but Him. He knows all that is in the land and sea. No leaf falls without His knowledge, nor is there a single grain in the darkness of the earth, or anything, fresh or withered, that is not written in a clear Record. It is He who calls your souls back by night, knowing what you have done by day, then raises you up again in the daytime until your fixed term is fulfilled. It is to Him that you will return in the end, and He will tell you what you have done. He is the Supreme Master over His subjects. He sends out recorders to watch over you until, when death overtakes any of you, those sent by Us take his soul– they never fail in their duty. Then they will all be returned to God, their true Lord. The Judgement truly belongs to Him, and He is the swiftest of reckoners. Say [O Muhammad], ‘Who is it that saves you from the dark depths of land and sea when you humbly and secretly call to Him [and say], “If He rescues us from this, we shall truly be thankful”?’ Say, “God rescues you from this and every distress; yet still you worship others beside Him.” [Chapter 6, Verses 59-64]

The Creator of Colour
Have you not considered how God sends water down from the sky and that We produce with it fruits of varied colours; that there are in the mountains layers of white and red of various hues, and jet black; that there are various colours among human beings, wild animals, and livestock too? It is those of His servants who have knowledge who stand in true awe of God. God is Almighty, Most Forgiving. Those who recite God’s scripture,keep up the prayer, give secretly and openly from what We have provided for them, may hope for a trade that will never decline: He will repay them in full, and give them
extra from His bounty. He is Most Forgiving, Most Appreciative. [Chapter 35, Verses 27-30]

Favour
[He is] Lord of the two sunrises and Lord of the two sunsets. So which of the favours of your Lord would you deny? He released the two seas, meeting [side by side]; between them is a barrier [so] neither of them transgresses. So which of the favours of your Lord would you deny? From both of them emerge pearl and coral. So which of the favours of your Lord would you deny? And to Him belong the ships [with sails] elevated in the sea like mountains. So which of the favours of your Lord would you deny? Everyone upon the earth will perish, and there will remain the Face of your Lord, Owner of Majesty and Honour. So which of the favours of your Lord would you deny? Whoever is within the heavens and earth asks Him; every day He is bringing about a matter. So which of the favours of your Lord would you deny? We will attend to you, O prominent beings. So which of the favours of your Lord would you deny? O company of jinn and humankind, if you are able to pass beyond the regions of the heavens and the earth, then pass. You will not pass except by authority [from God]. So which of the favours of your Lord would you deny? [Chapter 55, Verses 17-34]

Gratitude
He creates you in your mothers’ wombs, in one stage after another, in threefold depths of darkness. Such is God, your Lord; He holds control, there is no god but Him. How can you turn away? If you are ungrateful, remember God has no need of you, yet He is not pleased by ingratitude in His servants; if you are grateful, He is pleased [to see] it in you. No soul will bear another’s burden. You will return to your Lord in the end and He will inform you of what you have done: He knows well what is in the depths of [your] hearts. [Chapter 39, Verses 6-7]
