Golden Words of Allah
By Ajayi Sodiq
In the name of Allah, the Most Beneficial, the Most Merciful
1. Goodness to parents
“And your Lord has commanded that you worship none but Him and (to show) kindness to parents; if one of them or both of them reach old age with you, do not say to them ‘fie’, nor repulse them, and speak to them a gracious word.”
“And out of compassion, lower unto them the wing of humility, and say: ‘My Lord! Have mercy on them both as they cherished me when I was little.” (Quran 17: 23-24)
2. The Oneness of God
“Who is it that provides you with sustenance out of heaven and earth, or who is it that has full power over [your] hearing and sight? And who is it that brings forth the living out of that which is dead, and brings forth the dead out of that which is alive? And who is it that governs all that exists?” And they will [surely] answer: “[It is] God.” (Quran 10:31)
3. Social Justice and Equality
O you who have believed, be persistently standing firm for God, witnesses in justice, and do not let the hatred of a people prevent you from being just. Be just; that is nearer to righteousness. And fear God; indeed, God is Acquainted with what you do (Quran 5:8).
4. Divine Decree and Destiny
“God misleads whom He will and whom He will He guides” (Q.14:4) “The Lord has created and balanced all things and has fixed their destinies and guided them.” (Q.87:2)
5. Science and Nature:
“He hath created the heavens and the earth with truth. He maketh night to succeed day, and He maketh day to succeed night, and He constraineth the sun and the moon to give service, each running on for an appointed term.” (Quran 39: 5)
