Islam’s
message to un-believers:
[5:54] O you
who believe, if you revert from your religion, then GOD will substitute in your
place people whom He loves and who love Him. They will be kind with the
believers, stern with the disbelievers, and will strive in the cause of GOD
without fear of any blame. Such is GOD's blessing; He bestows it upon whomever
He wills. GOD is Bounteous, Omniscient.
[7:146] I will
divert from My revelations those who are arrogant on earth, without
justification. Consequently, when they see every kind of proof they will not
believe. And when they see the path of guidance they will not adopt it as their
path, but when they see the path of straying they will adopt it as their path.
This is the consequence of their rejecting our proofs, and being totally
heedless thereof.
Islam’s
message to Idol-worshippers:
18:52] The day
will come when He says, "Call upon My partners, whom you claimed to be
gods beside Me," they will call on them, but they will not respond to
them. An insurmountable barrier will separate them from each other.
Summary of the
message:
6:148 The idol
worshipers say, "Had GOD willed, we would not practice idolatry, nor would
our parents, nor would we prohibit anything." Thus did those before them
disbelieve, until they incurred our retribution. Say, "Do you have any
proven knowledge that you can show us? You follow nothing but conjecture; you
only guess."
6:149 Say,
"GOD possesses the most powerful argument; if He wills He can guide all of
you."
6:150 Say,
"Bring your witnesses who would testify that GOD has prohibited this or
that." If they testify, do not testify with them. Nor shall you follow the
opinions of those who reject our revelations, and those who disbelieve in the
Hereafter, and those who stray away from their Lord.
6:151 Say,
"Come let me tell you what your Lord has really prohibited for you: You
shall not set up idols besides Him. You shall honor your parents. You shall not
kill your children from fear of poverty - we provide for you and for them. You
shall not commit gross sins, obvious or hidden. You shall not kill - GOD has
made life sacred - except in the course of justice. These are His commandments
to you, that you may understand."
6:152 You
shall not touch the orphans' money except in the most righteous manner, until
they reach maturity. You shall give full weight and full measure when you
trade, equitably. We do not burden any soul beyond its means. You shall be
absolutely just when you bear witness, even against your relatives. You shall
fulfill your covenant with GOD. These are His commandments to you, that you may
take heed.
6:153 This is
My path - a straight one. You shall follow it, and do not follow any other
paths, lest they divert you from His path. These are His commandments to you,
that you may be saved.
6:154 And we
gave Moses the scripture, complete with the best commandments, and detailing
everything, and a beacon and mercy, that they may believe in meeting their
Lord.
6:155 This too
is a blessed scripture that we have revealed; you shall follow it and lead a
righteous life, that you may attain mercy.
6:156 Now you
can no longer say, "The scripture was sent down to two groups before us,
and we were unaware of their teachings."
6:157 Nor can
you say, "If only a scripture could come down to us, we would be better
guided than they." A proven scripture has now come to you from your Lord,
and a beacon, and a mercy. Now, who is more evil than one who rejects these
proofs from GOD, and disregards them? We will commit those who disregard our
proofs to the worst retribution for their heedlessness.
6:158 Are they
waiting for the angels to come to them, or your Lord, or some physical
manifestations of your Lord? The day this happens, no soul will benefit from
believing if it did not believe before that, and did not reap the benefits of
belief by leading a righteous life.* Say, "Keep on waiting; we too are
waiting."
6:159 Those
who divide themselves into sects do not belong with you. Their judgment rests
with GOD, then He will inform them of everything they had done.
6:160 Whoever
does a righteous work receives the reward for ten, and the one who commits a
sin is requited for only one. No one suffers the slightest injustice.
6:161 Say,
"My Lord has guided me in a straight path - the perfect religion of
Abraham, monotheism. He never was an idol worshiper."
6:162 Say,
"My Contact Prayers (Salat), my worship practices, my life and my death,
are all devoted absolutely to GOD alone, the Lord of the universe.
6:163 "He
has no partner. This is what I am commanded to believe, and I am the first to
submit."
6:164 Say,
"Shall I seek other than GOD as a lord, when He is the Lord of all things?
No
soul benefits
except from its own works, and none bears the burden of another. Ultimately,
you return to your Lord, then He informs you regarding all your disputes."
6:165 He is
the One who made you inheritors of the earth, and He raised some of you above
others in rank, in order to test you in accordance with what He has given you.
Surely, your Lord is efficient in enforcing retribution, and He is Forgiver,
Most Merciful.

4:116 Surely Allah
does not forgive that anything should be associated with Him, and He forgives
what is besides this to whom He pleases; and whoever associates anything with
Allah, he indeed strays off into a remote error.
4:117 They do not
call besides Him on anything but idols, and they do not call on anything but a
rebellious Shaitan.
4:118 Allah has
cursed him; and he said: Most certainly I will take of Thy servants an
appointed portion:
4:119 And most
certainly I will lead them astray and excite in them vain desires, and bid them
so that they shall slit the ears of the cattle, and most certainly I will bid
them so that they shall alter Allah's creation; and whoever takes the Shaitan
for a guardian rather than Allah he indeed shall suffer a manifest loss.
4:120 He gives them
promises and excites vain desires in them; and the Shaitan does not promise
them but to deceive.
4:121 These are
they whose abode is hell, and they shall not find any refuge from it.
4:122 And (as for)
those who believe and do good, We will make them enter into gardens beneath
which rivers flow, to abide therein for ever; (it is) a promise of Allah, true
(indeed), and who is truer of word than Allah?
4:123 (This) shall
not be in accordance with your vain desires nor in accordance with the vain
desires of the followers of the Book; whoever does evil, he shall be requited
with it, and besides Allah he will find for himself neither a guardian nor a
helper.
4:124 And whoever
does good deeds whether male or female and he (or she) is a believer -- these
shall enter the garden, and they shall not be dealt with a jot unjustly.
4:125 And who has a
better religion than he who submits himself entirely to Allah? And he is the
doer of good (to others) and follows the faith of Ibrahim, the upright one, and
Allah took Ibrahim as a friend.
4:126 And whatever
is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth is Allah's; and Allah
encompasses all things.
