"When Luqman said to his son"

And when Luqman said to his son when he was advising him "O' my son! Join not in worship others with God. Verily joining in worship others with God is a great wrong indeed.

And We have enjoined on man to his parents. His parents bore him in weakness and hardship upon weakness and hardship, and his weaning is in two years --Give thanks to Me and to your parents. Unto Me is the final destination.

But if they ( both ) strive with you to make you join in worship with Me others that of which you have no knowledge, then obey them not; but behave with them in the world kindly, and follow the path of him who turns to Me in repentance and in obedience. Then to Me will be your return, and I shall tell you what you used to do.

"O my son! If it be ( anything ) equal to the weight of a grain of mustard seed, and though it be in a rock, or in the heavens or in the earth, God will bring it forth, Verily, God is Subtle ( in bringing out the grain ), Well-Aware ( of its place ).

"O my son! Perform prayer, enjoin ( on people ) all that is good, and forbid ( people ) from disbelief in the Oneness of God, polytheism of all kinds and all that is evil and bad, and bear with patience whatever befalls you. Verily, these are some of the important commandments ( ordered by God with no exemption).

"And turn not your face away from men with pride, nor walk in insolence through the earth. Verily, God likes not any arrogant boaster.

"And be moderate ( or show no insolence ) in your walking, and lower your voice. Verily, the harshest of all voices is the braying of the asses."

-The Criterion, V.31:13-19

"I fear, if I disobey my Lord"

Say: "I fear, if I disobey my Lord, the torment of a Mighty Day."

He who is averted from ( such a torment ) on that Day, ( God ) has surely been Merciful to him. And that would be the obvious success.

And if God touches you with harm, none can remove it but He, and if He touches you with good, then He is Able to do all things.

And He is the Irresistible, ( Supreme ) above His slaves, and He is the All-Wise, Well-Acquainted with all things.

-The Criterion, V.6:15-18

He is God

All the praises, and thanks be to God, Who ( Alone ) created the heavens and the earth, and originated the darkness and the light; yet those who disbelieve hold others as equal with their Lord.

He it is Who has created you from clay, and then has decreed a ( stated ) term ( for you to die ). And there is with Him another determined term ( for you to be resurrected), yet you doubt ( in the Resurrection ).

And He is God ( to be worshipped Alone ) in the heavens and on the earth; He knows what you conceal and what you reveal, and He knows what you earn ( good or bad ).
-The Criterion, V.6:1-3

"An incident of Jesus the son of Mary"

when God will say ( on the Day of Resurrection ). "O Jesus, son of Mary! Remember My Favor to you and to your mother when I supported you with Gabriel, so that you spoke to the people in the cradle and in maturity; and when I taught you writing, the power of understanding, the Torah, and the Gospel; and when you made out of the clay a figure like that of a bird, by My Permission, and you breathed into it, and it became a bird by My Permission, and you healed  those born blind. and the lepers by My Permission, and when you brought forth the dead by My Permission; and when I restrained the Children of Israel from you ( when they resolve to kill you ) as you came unto them with clear proofs, and the disbelievers among them said: 'This is nothing but evident magic."

And when I (God) revealed to the disciples ( of Jesus ) to believe in Me and My Messenger, they said: "We believe. And bear witness that we are Believers (in One God)."

when the disciples said: "O Jesus, son of Mary! Can you Lord send down to us a table spread ( with food ) from heaven? " Jesus said: "Fear God, if you are indeed believers."

They said: "We wish to eat thereof and to satisfy our hearts ( to be stronger in Faith ), and to know that you have indeed told us the truth and that we ourselves be its witnesses."

Jesus, son of Mary, said: " O God, our Lord! Send us from the heaven a table spread ( with food ) that there may be for us - for the first and the last of us- a festival and a sign from You; and provide us with sustenance, for You are the Best of sustainers."

God  said: "I am going to send it down unto you, but if any of you after that disbelieves, then I will punish him with a torment such as I have not inflicted on anyone among the mankind and jinn."

And when God will say ( on the Day of Resurrection ): " O' Jesus son of Mary! Did you say unto men: ' Worship me and my mother as two gods besides God?' He (Jesus) will say: " Glory be to You! It was not for me to say what I had no right ( to say ). Had I said such a thing, You would surely have known it. You know what is in my inner-self though  I do not know what is in Yours; truly, You, only You, are the All-Knower of all that is hidden ( and unseen ).

Never did I say to them aught except what You ( God ) did command me to say: ' Worship God, my Lord and your Lord.' And I was a witness over them while I dwelt amongst them, but when You took me up, You were the Watcher over them; and You are a Witness to all things.

"If You punish them, they are Your slaves, and if You forgive them, verily You, only You, are the All-Mighty, the All-Wise."

God will say: "This is a Day on which the truthful will profit from their truth: theirs are Gardens under which rivers flow (in Paradise ) - they shall abide therein forever. Allah is pleased with them and they with Him. That is the great success ( Paradise ).

To God belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and all that is therein, and He is Able to do all things.

-The Criterion, V.5:110-120

"A test for mankind"

"O you who believe! God will certainly make a trial of you with something in ( the matter of ) the game that is well within the reach of your hands and your lances, that God may test him who fears Him unseen. Then whoever transgresses thereafter, for him there is a painful torment."

-The Criterion - V.5:94

Last message of the Last Prophet (Peace be upon him) of God.

This sermon was delivered on the ninth day of Dhul Hijjah 10 am in the 'Uranah

valley of Mount Arafat'.

O People, just as you regard this month, this day, this city as sacred,

so regard the life and prosperity of every Believer as sacred trust. Return the

goods entrusted to you to their rightful owners. Hurt no one so that no one

may hurt you. Remember you will indeed meet your Lord, and that He will indeed

reckon your deeds. God has forbidden you to take usury (interest), therefore

all interest obligations shall henceforth as be waived.

Beware of satan, for the safety of your religion. he has lost all hope

that he will ever be able to lead you astray in big things, so beware of following

him.

O People, it is true that you have certain rights with regards to your women, but they also have rights over you, if they abide your right then to them belongs the right to be fed and clothed in kindness. Do treat your women well and be kind to them for they are your partners and committed helpers. And it is your right that they do not make friends with anyone of whom you do not approve, as well as never commit adultery.

O People, listen to me in earnest, worship God, say your five daily prayers (salah),

fast during the month of Ramadan, and give your wealth in Zakat.

Perform Pilgrimage if you can afford to. You know that every Believer is the brother

of another Believer. You are all equal. Nobody  has superiority over other except

by piety and good actions.

Remember, one day you will appear before God and answer for your deeds. So beware, do not stray from the path of righteousness after I'm gone.

O People. NO PROPHET OR APOSTLE WILL COME AFTER ME AND NO MAN OF FAITH WILL

BE BORN. Reason well, therefore, O People, and understand my words, which I convey to you. I leave behind two things. The Criterion and my example the SUNNAH and if you follow these you will never go astray.

All those who listen to me shall pass on my words to another to another again; and may the last one understand my words better than those who listen to me directly. Be my witness O God, that I conveyed your message to your people.
