Praise be to Allah, the Cherisher and Sustainer of the worlds; (Surah Al-Fatiha, 1)
Behold, thy Lord said to the angels: "I will create a vicegerent on earth." They said: "Wilt Thou place therein one who will make mischief therein and shed blood?- whilst we do celebrate Thy praises and glorify Thy holy (name)?" He said: "I know what ye know not." (Surah Al-Baqara, 30)
O ye who believe! Give of the good things which ye have (honourably) earned, and of the fruits of the earth which We have produced for you, and do not even aim at getting anything which is bad, in order that out of it ye may give away something, when ye yourselves would not receive it except with closed eyes.And know that Allah is Free of all wants, and worthy of all praise. (Surah Al-Baqara, 267)
Think not that those who exult in what they have brought about, and love to be praised for what they have not done,- think escape the penalty.For them is a penalty Grievous indeed. (Surah Al-Imran, 188)
