and Allah is One Who hears and knows (all th<strong>in</strong>gs). For His <strong>Mercy</strong> He<br />

specially chooseth whom He pleaseth: for Allah is the Lord <strong>of</strong> bounties<br />

unbounded. (24: 21)<br />

And obey Allah and the Apostle; that ye may obta<strong>in</strong> mercy. Be quick <strong>in</strong><br />

the race for forgiveness from your Lord, and for paradise whose width<br />

is that <strong>of</strong> the heavens and earth, prepared for the doers <strong>of</strong> good.<br />

Those who spend whether <strong>in</strong> prosperity or <strong>in</strong> adversity; who swallow<br />

their anger; and overlook the (faults) <strong>of</strong> men, for Allah loves those who<br />

do good.<br />

And those who have done someth<strong>in</strong>g to be ashamed <strong>of</strong> (s<strong>in</strong>), or<br />

wronged their own souls, earnestly br<strong>in</strong>g<strong>in</strong>g Allah to m<strong>in</strong>d and repent<br />

from their s<strong>in</strong>, and who can forgive s<strong>in</strong>s except Allah? And (they) do no<br />

persist know<strong>in</strong>gly (<strong>in</strong> s<strong>in</strong>) that they have done.<br />

FOR SUCH THE REWARD IS FORGIVENESS FROM THEIR<br />

LORD. (3: 132-136)<br />

It was then <strong>of</strong> the mercy <strong>of</strong> Allah that thou (Muhammed) hast been<br />

gentle with them; and wert thou rough, hardhearted, they had surely<br />

dispersed from around thee. So pardon them thou, and ask thou<br />

forgiveness for them and take thou counsel with them <strong>in</strong> the affair, and<br />

when thou hast resolved, put thy trust <strong>in</strong> Allah. Verily Allah loveth the<br />

trustful. (3: 159)<br />

Then those who believe <strong>in</strong> Allah and hold fast to Him soon will He<br />

admit them to <strong>Mercy</strong> and Grace from Him and guide them to Himself<br />

by a straight Way. (4 : 175)<br />

Say thou: whose is whatsoever is <strong>in</strong> the heavens and the earth? Say<br />

thou: Allah's. He hath prescribed mercy for Himself. Surely He shall<br />

gather you together on the Day <strong>of</strong> Judgment where<strong>of</strong> there is no doubt.<br />

Those who have lost themselves shall not believe. (6: 12)<br />
