The Speeches & Table-Talk of the Prophet Mohammad

Muhammad, Prophet, -632 -- Teachings; Religious life -- Islam
And God calleth you unto the abode of peace: and guideth whom He
will into the straight way:
To those who have done well, weal and to spare,
Neither blackness shall cover their faces nor shame! these are the
inmates of Paradise, to abide therein for ever.
And as for those who have earned evil, the recompense of evil is
its like; shame shall cover them--no defender shall they have
against God--as though their faces were darkened with the gloom
of night: these are the inmates of the Fire to abide therein for
ever.
And on the day we will gather them all together, then will we say
to those who made Partners with God, “To your place, ye and your
Partners!” and we will separate between them; and their partners
shall say, “Ye worshipped not us,
And God is witness enough between us and you that we were
indifferent to your worship!”
Then shall every soul make proof of what it hath sent on before,
and they shall be brought back to God their true Master, and what
they devised shall vanish from them.
Say: Who provideth you from the heaven and the earth? who is king
over hearing and sight? and who bringeth forth the living from
the dead and bringeth forth the dead from the living? and who
ruleth all things? And they shall say, “God:” then say: Do ye not
fear?
So that is God your true Lord: and after the truth, what is there
but error? How then are ye turned away?
Thus is the word of thy Lord fulfilled upon those who work
iniquity: they shall not believe.
Say: Is there any of the Partners [of God] who can produce a
creature, then bring it back again? Say: God produceth a creature
then bringeth it back again: how then are ye deceived?
Say: Is there any of the Partners who guideth to the truth? Say:
God guideth unto the truth. Is he who guideth to the truth the
worthier to be followed, or he who guideth not except he be
guided? What is in you so to judge?
And most of them only follow a fancy: but a fancy profiteth nothing
against the truth! verily God knoweth what they do.
