12 :5 - Said (the father): "My (dear) little son! relate not thy vision to thy brothers lest they concoct
a plot against thee: for Satan is to man an avowed enemy! 1634163
16:26 - Those before them did also plot (against Allah's Way): but Allah took their structures from
their foundations and the roof fell down on them from above; and the Wrath seized them from
directions they did not perceive. 2049
2049 Evil will always devise plots against the Prophets of Allah. So was it with Al-Mustafa, and so was it with the Prophets
before him. But the imposing structures which the ungodly build up (metaphorically) collapse at the Command of
Allah, and they are often punished from quarters from which they least expected punishment. For example, the
Quraish were confident in their numbers, their organisations, and their superior equipment. But on the field of Badr
they collapsed where they expected victory. (16.26)
16:45 - Do then those who devise evil (plots) feel secure that Allah will not cause the earth to
swallow them up or that the Wrath will not seize them from directions they little perceive? 2071
2071 Cf. xvi. 26. The wicked plot against Prophets of Allah in secret, forgetting that every hidden thought of theirs is known
to Allah, and that for every thought and action of theirs they will have to account to Allah. And Allah's punishment can
seize them in various ways. Four are enumerated here. (1) They may be swallowed up in the earth like Qarun, whose
story is told in xxviii. 76-81. He was swallowed up in the earth while he was arrogantly exulting on the score of his
wealth. (2) It may be that, like Haman, the prime minister of Pharaoh, they are plotting against Allah, when they are
themselves overwhelmed by some dreadful calamity; xi. 36-38, xxix. 39-40. The case of Pharaoh is also in point. He
was drowned while he was arrogantly hoping to frustrate Allah's plans for Israel; x. 90-92. For (3) and (4) see the next
two notes. (16.45)
34:33 - Those who had been despised will say to the arrogant ones: "Nay! it was a plot (of yours)
by day and by night. Behold! ye (constantly) ordered us to be ungrateful to Allah and to
attribute equals to Him!" They will declare (their) repentance when they see the Penalty: We
shall put yokes on the necks of the Unbelievers: it would only be a requital for their (ill) deeds.

3838 The more intelligent ones who exploit the weaker ones are constantly plotting night and day to keep the latter ignorant
and under their thumb. They show them the ways of Evil, because by that means they are more in their power. (34.33)
3839 If all men worshipped the true God, and none but Him, they could not on the one hand be trampled upon, and on the
other hand they could not be unjust. It is in the worship of false ideals or false gods that alluring structures of fraud
and injustice are built up. (34.33)
3840 Cf. x. 54, and n. 1445. All these mutual recriminations would be swallowed up in the general realisation of the Truth by
both sides in the Hereafter. They would be prepared openly to declare their repentance, but it would be too late. The
yoke of slavery to Evil will be on their necks. Allah's justice put it there, but what else could it do? Their own sins will
cry out against them and hold them under their yokes. (34.33)
35:10 - If any do seek for glory and power to Allah belong all glory and power. To Him mount up
(all) Words of Purity: it is He Who exalts each Deed of Righteousness. Those that lay Plots of
Evil for them is a Penalty terrible; and the plotting of such will be void (of result). 38823883
3882 Good and Evil are to be distinguished sharply. No good is ever lost: it goes up to Allah. The humblest Good, in word
or deed, is exalted to high rank. If man seeks for mere glory and power, there is no such thing apart from Allah. But
seeking Allah, we attain to the highest glory and power. (35.10)
3883 It is the nature of Evil to work underground, to hide from the Light, to plot against Righteousness; but Evil inevitably
carries its own punishment. Its plots must fail miserably. And eventually Evil itself is to be blotted out. (35.10)
71:22 - "And they have devised a tremendous Plot. 5720
5720 Having got material resources the wicked devise plots to get rid of the righteous whose presence is a reproach to
them. For a time their plots may seem tremendous and have the appearance of success, but they can never defeat
Allah's Purpose. (71.22)
Sunan of Abu-Dawood
Hadith 3035
Abdullah ibn Abbas
Narrated by
The Apostle of Allah (peace be upon him) concluded peace with the people of Najran on condition that they would pay to
Muslims two thousand suits of garments, half of Safar, and the rest in Rajab, and they would lend (Muslims) thirty coats of
mail, thirty horses, thirty camels, and thirty weapons of each type used in battle. Muslims will stand surely for them until they
return them in case there is any plot or treachery in the Yemen. No church of theirs will be demolished and no clergyman of
theirs will be turned out. There will be no interruption in their religion until they bring something new or take usury. Isma'il
said: They took usury.
