550 The essence of Islam is to serve Allah and do good to your fellow-creatures. This is wider and more comprehensive
than "Love God and love your neighbour". For it includes duties to animals as our fellow-creatures, and emphasises
practical service rather than sentiment. (4.36)
554 Real deeds of service and kindness proceed, not from showing off or from a superior sort of condescension (cf. "White
Man's Burden"), but from a frank recognition of our own humility and the real claims, before Allah, of all our fellowcreatures.
For in our mutual needs we are equal before Allah, or perhaps the best of us (as the world sees us) may be
worse than the worst of us (from the same point of view). (4.36)
4:84 - Allah is the strongest in might and in punishment. 603
4:107 - Allah loveth not one given to perfidy and crime. 622
5:51 - Allah guideth not a people unjust. 764
764 That is, look not to them for help and comfort. They are more likely to combine against you
than to help you. And this happened more than once in the lifetime of the Prophet, and in
after-ages again and again. He who associates with them and shares their counsels must be
counted as of them. The trimmer loses whichever way the wheel of fortune turns. (5.51)
5:67 - Allah loveth not those who do mischief. 772773774775
5:87 - Allah loveth not those given to excess. 791
5:95 - Allah is Exalted and Lord of Retribution. 800801
5:108 - Allah guideth not a rebellious people
See: 9:24
6:119 - Thy Lord knoweth best those who transgress. 944
6:141 - Allah loveth not the wasters. 964965966
966 "Waste not, want not," says the English proverb. Here the same wisdom is preached from a higher motive. See what
magnificent means God provides in nature for the sustenance of all His creatures, because He loves them all. Enjoy
them in moderation and be grateful. But commit no excess, and commit no waste: the two things are the same from
different angles of vision. If you do, you take away something from other creatures and God would not like your
selfishness. (6.141)
6:144 - Allah guideth not people who do wrong.
See: 9:19.109
7:55 - Allah loveth not those who trespass beyond bounds. 1033
1033 In prayer, we must avoid any arrogance or show or loudness, or vanity of requests or words. If excess is condemned
in all things, it is specially worthy of condemnation when we go humbly before Our Lord,-we poor creatures before the
Omnipotent Who knoweth all. (7.55)
8:52 - Allah is strong and strict in punishment:
See: 17:22
8:58 - Allah loveth not the treacherous.
39:37 - Allah Exalted in Power (able to enforce His Will) Lord of Retribution? 42974298
4298 Allah's Power can protect, and will defeat all plots against His Will, as well as punish Evil when it gets beyond bounds.
(39.37)
46:10 - Allah guides not a people unjust." 47834784
14:34- And He giveth you of all that ye ask for. But if ye count the favors of Allah never will ye be able
to number them: verily man is given up to injustice and ingratitude. 19101911
1910 Sincere and true prayer in faith is answered by Allah. Thus He gives us everything which a wise and benevolent
Providence can give. (14.34)
1911 I have tried to render the intensive forms of the Arabic by what I consider their near equivalent here: the phrase "given
up to injustice and ingratitude" suggests habitual ignoring of just values and ingratitude for the innumerable gifts and
favours which Allah has showered on mankind. (14.34)
