16:36 - For We assuredly sent amongst every People an apostle (with the Command) "Serve Allah
and eschew Evil": of the people were some whom Allah guided and some on whom Error
became inevitably (established). So travel through the earth and see what was the end of
those who denied (the Truth). 20602061
2060 Even though Allah's Signs are everywhere in Nature and in men's own conscience, yet in addition Allah has sent
human Messengers to every People to call their attention to the Good and turn them from Evil. So they cannot pretend
that Allah has abandoned them or that He does not care what they do. His divine Grace always invites their will to
choose the right. (16.36)
2061 While some people accept the guidance of the divine Grace, others so surrender themselves to Evil that it must
necessarily follow that Evil obtains a grip over them. They have only to travel through Time or Space to see the end of
those who abandoned their lights and surrendered to Evil and Error. For haqqat and the meaning of haqq in this
connection cf. xv. 64. (16.36)
75:2 - And I do call to witness the self-reproaching spirit; (eschew Evil). 5810
EVIDENCE:
4:15 - If any of your women are guilty of lewdness take the evidence of four (reliable) witnesses
from amongst you against them; and if they testify confine them to houses until death do claim
them or Allah ordain for them some (other) way. 523524525
24:4 - And those who launch a charge against chaste women and produce not four witnesses (to
support their allegation) flog them with eighty stripes: and reject their evidence ever after: for
such men are wicked transgressors 2958
75:14 - Nay man will be evidence against himself 5819
5819 Cf. xxiv. 24, and n. 2976: "On the Day when their tongues, their hands, and their feet will bear witness against them
as to their actions. " It is not what a man says about himself, or what others say of him, that determines judgment
about him. It is what he is in himself. His own personality betrays him or commends him. (75.14)
2:282 - The witnesses should not refuse when they are called on (for evidence). Disdain not to
reduce to writing (your contract) for a future period whether it be small or big: it is juster in the
sight of Allah more suitable as evidence and more convenient to prevent doubts among
yourselves; but if it be a transaction which ye carry out on the spot among yourselves there is
no blame on you if ye reduce it not to writing.
98:1 - Those who reject (Truth) among the People of the Book and among the Polytheists were not
going to depart (from their ways) until there should come to them Clear Evidence 622162226223
6222 The Polytheists, the Pagans, had not previously believed in any scriptures. But yet, when clear evidence came to
them, they should have believed. Yet they rejected the holy Prophet because they were not really searching for Truth,
but were only following their own fancies and desires. (98.1)
6223 The Clear Evidence was the holy Prophet himself, his life, his personality, and his teaching. (98.1)
98:4 - Nor did the people of the Book make schisms until after there came to them Clear Evidence.
6227
6227 The responsibility of the People of the Book is greater than that of Pagans, because the People of the Book had been
prepared for the standard and straight Religion by the revelations which they had already received. Yet, when the
clear evidence came in Islam, they resisted it, And what is this standard and straight Religion, free of all ambiguity,
and free of all casual rights and ceremonies? They are summed up in three eternal principles, as explained in the next
verse and the next note. (98.4)
35:40 - Say: "Have ye seen (these) `partners' of yours whom ye call upon besides Allah?" Show me
what it is they have created in the (wide) earth. Or have they a share in the heavens? Or have
We given them a Book from which they (can derive) clear (evidence)? Nay the wrongdoers
promise each other nothing but delusions. 3932
3932 The people who enthrone in their hearts for worship anything besides Allah may well be asked a few questions. Some
of such questions are indicated in the text with terse precision: (1) Have you seen these gods of yours? Do they exist?
"Seeing" of course does not necessarily mean physical sight. We do not see the air, but no one doubts that it exists.
And the air is a physical substance. There are forces that we know exist, but we do not see them. To us, who have
Faith, Allah is a truer Reality than anything else that we know, including ourselves. Can the false worshippers say that
of any of their false gods? (2) Have your gods created or originated anything on earth? You may worship power or
