44:55 - There can they call for every kind of fruit in peace and security; 4730
4730 The signification is explained in n. 4671 to xliii. 73. (44.55)
50:41 - And listen for the Day when the Caller will call out from a place quite near 49804981
4980 The Day of Resurrection, when the Call to the souls to arise and come to the Judgment-Seat will be immediately
answered, and they will all arise and come forth. Cf. xxxvi. 49-53, and notes 3997 and 3999. (50.41)
4981 In the life of this world it seemed all so remote. In the new life at the Resurrection it will all be so near; for there will be
neither time nor space as we know them here. (50.41)
54:6 - Therefore (O Prophet) turn away from them. The day that the Caller will call (them) to a
terrible affair. 51325133
5132 For a time godlessness seems to triumph, but the triumph is short-lived, And in any case there is the great Reckoning
of the Day of Judgment. (54.6)
5132 The angel whose voice will call at the Resurrection and direct all souls. Cf. xx. 108-111. (54.6)
6:40 - Say: "Think ye to yourselves if there come upon you the wrath of Allah or the hour (that ye
dread) would ye then call upon other than Allah? (Reply) if ye are truthful!
6:41 - "Nay On Him would ye call and if it be His Will He would remove (the distress) which
occasioned your call upon Him and ye would forget (the false gods) which ye join with Him!"
6:108 - Revile not ye those whom they call upon besides Allah lest they out of spite revile Allah in
their ignorance. Thus have We made alluring to each people its own doings. In the end will
they return to their Lord and We shall then tell them the truth of all that they did. 936
936 A man's actual personal religion depends upon many things, -his personal psychology, the background of his life, his
hidden or repressed feelings, tendencies, or history (which psychoanalysis tries to unravel), his hereditary dispositions
or antipathies, and all the subtle influences of his education and his environment. The task before the man of God is:
(1) to use any of these which can subserve the higher ends, (2) to purify such as have been misused, (3) to introduce
new ideas and modes of looking at things, and (4) to combat what is wrong and cannot be mended: all for the purpose
of leading to the truth and gradually letting in spiritual light where there was darkness before. If that is not done with
discretion and the skill of a spiritual Teacher, there may be not only a reaction of obstinacy, but an unseemly show of
dishonour to the true God and His Truth, and doubts would spread among the weaker brethren whose faith is shallow
and infirm. What happens to individuals is true collectively of nations or groups of people. They think in their selfobsession
that theirown ideas are right. God in His infinite compassion bears with them, and asks those who have
purer ideas of faith not to vilify the weaknesses of their neighbours, lest the neighbours in their turn vilify the real truth
and make matters even worse than before. In so far as there is active evil, He will deal with it in His own way. Of
course the righteous man must not hide his light under a bushel, or compromise with evil, or refuse to establish right
living where he has the power to do so. (6.108)
8:45 - O ye who believe! when ye meet a force be firm and call Allah in remembrance much (and
often); that ye may prosper.
11:14 - "If then they (your false gods) answer not your (call) know ye that this Revelation is sent
down (replete) with the knowledge of Allah and that there is no god but He! Will ye even then
submit (to Islam)?"
17:67 - When distress seizes you at sea those that ye call upon besides Himself leave you in the
lurch! But when He brings you back safe to land ye turn away (from Him). Most ungrateful is
man! 2262
2262 Against Allah's gracious gifts and mercies is contrasted man's ingratitude. In danger he remembers Allah, the One
True God, but relapses into his own fancies when the danger is past. Cf. also x. 22-23. (17.67)
17:71 - One day We shall call together all human beings with their (respective) Imams: those who
are given their record in their right hand will read it (with pleasure) and they will not be dealt
with unjustly in the least. 22662267
2266 I have discussed the various meanings of Imam in ii. 124, n. 124. What is the meaning here? The Commentators are
divided. Some understand the meaning to be that each People or Group will appear with its Leader, who will bear
witness to its virtues or sins: Cf. xvi. 84. Another view is that the Imam is their revelation, their Book. A third is that the
Imam is the record of deeds spoken of in the next clause. I prefer the first. (17.71)
18:24 - Without adding "So please Allah!" And call thy Lord to mind when thou forgettest and say "I
hope that my Lord will guide me ever closer (even) than this to the right road." 23632364
