Believers’ consciences
determine their behaviour Those who control their rage and pardon other people –
ALLAH loves the good-doers – those who, when they act indecently or wrong
themselves, remember ALLAH and ask forgiveness for their bad actions (and who
can forgive bad actions except ALLAH?) and do not knowingly persist in what they
were doing. (Surah Al Imran, 134-135)
All human beings are created with a conscience And the self and what
proportioned it. And inspired it with depravity or taqwa, he who purifies it has
succeeded, (Surat ash-Shams, 7-10)
People who deny, though their consciences tell them the truth
And they repudiated them wrongly and haughtily, in spite of their own certainty
about them. See the final fate of the corrupters. (Surat an-Naml, 14)
Believers act on the truth when they see it We would be inventing lies against
ALLAH if we returned to your religion after ALLAH has saved us from it. We could
never return to it unless ALLAH our Lord so willed. Our Lord encompasses
everything in His knowledge. We have put our trust in ALLAH. Our Lord, judge
between us and our people with truth. You are the best of judges.’ (Surat al-A‘raf,
89)
Believers exchange their worldly desires for the Hereafter ALLAH has bought from
the muminun their selves and their wealth in return for the Garden. They fight
in the Way of ALLAH and they kill and are killed. It is a promise binding on Him
in the Torah, the Injil and the Qur’an and who is truer to his contract than
ALLAH? Rejoice then in the bargain you have made. That is the great victory. (Surat
at-Tawba, 111)
Every worldly desire is an insight into oneself In fact, man will be clear
proof against himself. In spite of any excuses he might offer. (Surat al-Qiyama,
14-15)
Worldly desires have been created together with envy Reconciliation is
better. But people are prone to selfish greed. If you do good and have taqwa,
ALLAH is aware of what you do. (Surat an-Nisa’, 128)
Believers avoid desire and lust So have taqwa of ALLAH, as much as you are
able to, and listen and obey and spend for your own benefit.It is the people who
are safe-guarded from the avarice of their own selves who are successful. (Surat
at-Taghabun, 16)
Lack of conscience atrophies the heart Have they not travelled about the
earth and do they not have hearts to understand with or ears to hear with? It is
not their eyes which are blind but the hearts in their breasts which are blind.
(Surat al-Hajj, 46)
Worldly desires have the power to command evil I do not say my self was free
from blame. The self indeed commands to evil acts – except for those my Lord has
mercy on. My Lord, He is Forgiving, Merciful.’ (Surah Yusuf, 53)
Believers cleanse and purify their desires and the self and what proportioned
it, and inspired it with depravity or taqwa.He who purifies it has succeeded, (Surat
ash-Shams, 7-9)
