4969 The description of the Righteous is given in four masterly clauses: (1) those who turned away from Evil in sincere
repentance; (2) those whose new life was good and righteous; (3) those who in their innermost hearts and in their
most secret doings were actuated by Allah-fearing love, the fear that is akin to love in remembering Allah under His
title of "Most Gracious"; and (4) who gave up their whole heart and being to Him. (50.32)
57:19 - And those who believe in Allah and His apostles they are the Sincere (Lovers of truth) and
the witnesses (who testify) in the eyes of their Lord: they shall have their Reward and their
Light but those who reject Allah and deny Our Signs they are the Companions of Hell-Fire.

5299 Cf. iv. 69, and n. 586. The four categories there mentioned as constituting the beautiful Company of Faith are: the
Prophets who teach, the Sincere Lovers of Truth, the Martyrs, and the Righteous who do good. Of these, the prophets
or messengers have already been mentioned in this verse. The Righteous who do good are mentioned as the men
and women given over to deeds of charity in verse 18. (57.19)
5300 The Martyrs (witnesses) are all those who carry the Banner of Truth against all odds and in all positions of danger,
whether by pen or speech, or deed or counsel. (57.19)
5301 Note that these two are specially high degrees in the Hereafter, just short of Prophethood. For they have not only their
reward in the Hereafter, like those who practise charity (verse 18 above), but they themselves become sources of light
and leading. (57.19)
66:8 - O ye who believe! turn to Allah with sincere repentance: in the hope that your Lord will
remove from you your ills and admit you to Gardens beneath which Rivers flow the Day that
Allah will not permit to be humiliated the Prophet and those who believe with him. Their Light
will run forward before them and by their right hands while they say "Our Lord! perfect our
Light for us and grant us Forgiveness; for Thou has power over all things." 554255435544
542 The opposition of sex against sex, individual or concerted, having been condemned , we are now exhorted to turn to
the Light, and to realise that the good and righteous can retain their integrity even though their mates, in spite of all
their example and precept, remain in evil and sin. (66.8)
5543 Whatever may have been the faults of the past, unite in good deeds, and abandon petty sectional jealousies, and
Allah will remove your difficulties and distresses, and all the evils from which you suffer. Indeed He will grant you the
Bliss of Heaven and save you from any humiliation which you may have brought on yourselves by your conduct and
on the revered Prophet and Teacher whose name you professed to take. (66.8)
5544 See lvii. 12, and n. 5288. The darkness of evil will be dispelled, and the Light of Allah will be realised by them more
and more. But even so they will not be content: for they will pray for the least taint of evil to be removed from them,
and perfection to be granted to them. In that exalted state they will be within reach of perfection,-not by their own
merits, but by the infinite Mercy and Power of Allah. (66.8)
98:5 - And they have been commanded no more than this: to worship Allah offering Him sincere
devotion being True (in faith); to establish regular Prayer; and to practice regular Charity; and
that is the Religion Right and Straight. 622862296230
6228 The three eternal principles of Religion are: (1) sincere devotion to Allah; (2) Prayer and Praise as drawing man
nearer to Allah; and (3) the service of Allah's creatures by deeds of practical charity. (98.5)

Hadith 3.125
Abu Huraira
Narrated by
The Prophet said, "Whoever established prayers on the night of Qadr out of sincere faith and hoping for a reward from Allah,
then all his previous sins will be forgiven; and whoever fasts in the month of Ramadan out of sincere faith, and hoping for a
reward from Allah, then all his previous sins will be forgiven."
SINGLE: MIGHTY BLAST:
7:78 - So the earthquake took them unawares and they lay prostrate in their homes in the morning!

1047 The retribution was not long delayed. A terrible earthquake came and buried the people and destroyed their boasted
civilisation. The calamity must have been fairly extensive in area and intense in the terror it inspired, for it is described
(liv. 31) as a "single mightyblast" (saihatan wahidatan), the sort of terror-inspiring noise which accompanies all big
earthquakes. (7.78)
11:65 -But they did hamstring her. So he said: "Enjoy yourselves in your homes for three days:
(then will be your ruin): there is a promise not to be belied!" 1561
1561 Just three days' time for further thought and repentance! But they paid no heed. A terrible
earthquake came by night, preceded by a mighty rumbling blast (probably volcanic), such as is
