Kde je Aláh?
Na královském trůnu
On je ten, jenž stvořil nebesa i zemi v šesti dnech a potom se na trůnu Svém usadil. On zná, co vniká do země a co z ní vychází, co sestupuje z nebe a co na ně vystupuje, a ať jste kdekoliv, On s vámi je a vše, co děláte, zří.
A On je ten, jenž nebesa a zemi v šesti dnech stvořil, zatímco trůn Jeho se nad vodou vznášel,aby vyzkoušel, kdo z vás lepší bude ve skutcích. A když řekneš: „Po smrti budete vskutku vzkříšeni!“, tu odpovídají ti, kdož nevěří: „To kouzelnictví zjevné je toliko!“
Všude
Bohu náleží východ i západ, a ať se obrátíte kamkoliv, všude je tvář Boží. A Bůh věru je všezahrnující, vševědoucí!
Doma, v Ká'bě
Pane můj, usadil jsem část potomstva svého v údolí bez polí obilných poblíže baytika [tvého posvátného domu, (chrámu podle překladatele Hrbka. V angličtině však výhradně "Sacred House" nebo "Holy House")], Pane náš, aby zde modlitbu konali. Učiň, aby srdce lidí se k nim přiblížila, a uštědři jim plody co obživu - snad budou vděční!
Poblíž
Když se tě zeptají služebníci Moji na Mne, věz, že jsem blízko a že odpovím na prosbu prosícího, když mne poprosí. Nechť však na výzvu Mou odpoví a nechť ve Mne věří - snad půjdou cestou správnou!
My stvořili jsme člověka a dobře víme, co duše jeho mu našeptává. Vždyť blíže jsme mu než jeho tepna krční,
Je Aláh jediným ochráncem?
Ano
... A nemáte kromě Něho ochránce ani přímluvce žádného. Což se nevzpamatujete?
Ano
Bohu náleží království na nebesích i na zemi, On život i smrt dává; a nemáte vedle Boha ochránce ani pomocníka žádného.
Ano
Domnívali se snad ti, kdož nevěřili, že si mohou brát služebníky Mé [např. anděly, boží posly, Ježíše, syna Marie atd.] jako ochránce místo Mne?
Ne, andělé také
My ochránci jsme vašimi v pozemském i budoucím životě; a budete mít v něm to, po čem duše vaše touží, a dostane se vám tam, oč požádáte, všeho,
Ne
Vaším waliyyukumu [ochráncem, přítelem, strážcem..] je jedině Bůh a Jeho posel a ti, kdož věří, dodržují modlitbu, dávají almužnu a sklánějí se.
Ne
Věřící muži a věřící ženy jsou si vzájemně awliyao [pomocníky, přáteli, ochránci] a přikazují vhodné a zakazují zavrženíhodné, dodržují modlitbu, dávají almužnu a jsou poslušní vůči Bohu a Jeho poslu. Nad těmi se Bůh věru slituje, neboť Bůh mocný je i moudrý.
Je Aláh jediný vládce a velitel?
Ano
Rci: „Bůh zná nejlépe, jak dlouho tam zůstali, a Jemu náleží nepoznatelné na nebesích a na zemi a On nejlépe je vidoucí a slyšící! A nemají oni kromě Něho ochránce žádného a On nečiní nikoho společníkem rozhodnutí Svého!“
Ano
Rci: „Chvála Bohu, jenž nevzal si pro sebe dítě žádné, jenž nemá společníka ve vládě a nepotřebuje před ponížením ochránce!“ A oslavuj velikost Jeho!
Ano
Nepřísluší smrtelníkovi, jemuž Bůh dal Písmo, vědění a prorocké poslání, aby potom lidem prohlásil: „Buďte služebníky mými, nikoliv Boha!“ Buďte spíše rabíny v tom, že učíte Písmu, a v tom, že v něm studujete. Bůh vám nepřikázal, abyste si brali anděly a proroky za pány své. Což by vám mohl přikázat nevěrectví poté, co jste se stali do vůle Jeho odevzdanými?
Ano
Rci: „Máme snad vzývat vedle Boha něco, co nám nemůže ani prospět, ani uškodit, a obrátit se nazpět po stopách svých poté, co Bůh nás již jednou uvedl na stezku správnou, podobni tomu, jemuž satani dali zbloudit na zemi, ačkoliv má přátele, kteří volají zvouce jej k cestě správné: Pojď k nám!“ Rci: „Vedení Boží je věru ["jediné správné" přidáno v překladu pana Hrbka] vedením. A bylo nám nařízeno, abychom se odevzdali do vůle Pána lidstva veškerého.“
Ne
Vy, kteří věříte! Poslouchejte Boha a poslouchejte posla a ty, kdož mezi vámi mají autoritu! A jste-li ve sporu o nějakou věc, předejte její rozhodnutí Bohu a poslu - jestliže věříte v Boha a v den soudný! A to bude nejlepší a povede k nejkrásnějšímu výsledku.
Ne
Rci: „Bože veliký, vládce království! Ty dáváš vládu, komu chceš, a odebíráš ji, komu chceš; Ty povyšuješ, koho chceš, a ponižuješ, koho chceš, v ruce Tvé je dobro a Tys věci každé mocen.
Ne
A hle, Pán tvůj vzal potomstvo všechno ze synů Adamových, jež vzešlo z ledví jejich, a dal jim svědčit o nich samých a řekl: „Což nejsem Já Pánem vaším?“ I odpověděli: „Ano, dosvědčujeme to!“ A to proto, abyste neřekli v den zmrtvýchvstání, že jsme k tomu byli lhostejní,
Ne, musíte sloužit Mohamedovi
Lid tvůj to prohlásil za lež, zatímco je to pravda. Rci: „Já nejsem dozorcem vaším.
Ne, kdokoliv se podřizuje Mohamedovi se zároveň podřizuje Aláhu
Vy, kteří věříte! Poslouchejte Boha a poslouchejte posla a ty, kdož mezi vámi mají autoritu! A jste-li ve sporu o nějakou věc, předejte její rozhodnutí Bohu a poslu - jestliže věříte v Boha a v den soudný! A to bude nejlepší a povede k nejkrásnějšímu výsledku.
Kdokoliv je poslušen posla, je poslušen i Boha...
Dodržujte modlitbu, dávejte almužnu a poslouchejte posla - snad se vám dostane slitování!
Boha se bojte a mne poslouchejte!
Boha se bojte a mne poslouchejte!“
Boha se bojte a mne poslouchejte!
Boha se bojte a mne poslouchejte!
Boha se bojte a mne poslouchejte!
Boha se bojte a mne poslouchejte!
Boha se bojte a mne poslouchejte!
Boha se bojte a mne poslouchejte!
Ne, Mohamed také sdílí Aláhovu schopnost odpouštět hříšníkům
A nevyslali jsme posla žádného, leč aby mu byla, z dovolení Božího, prokazována poslušnost. Však jestliže k tobě přijdou poté, když sami sobě ukřivdili, prosíce Boha o slitování a žádajíce, aby posel poprosil o slitování pro ně, pak věru naleznou, že Bůh odpouští kajícníkům a je slitovný. Však nikoliv, při Pánu tvém, oni nebudou věřící, pokud tě neučiní rozhodčím v tom, o čem jsou ve sporu. Potom nenaleznou v duších svých pochybnosti o tom, cos rozhodl, a podrobí se plným podrobením.
Může být Aláh viděn?
Ne
Zraky lidí Ho nedosáhnou [přesněji "nelze jej vidět"], leč On jich dosahuje; On bystrý je i dobře zpravený.
Ano
A není dáno smrtelníku žádnému, aby s ním Bůh rozmlouval, leda prostřednictvím vnuknutí či zpoza clony anebo tak, že vyšle posla, jenž vnuká lidem z dovolení Jeho to, co On chce a On vznešený je a moudrý.
Ano
Při hvězdě padající! Váš druh nebloudí, ani nebyl sveden, ani nehovoří z vlastního popudu svého. Je to vnuknutí pouze, jež bylo mu vnuknuto, jemuž naučil jej silný mocí, silou vládnoucí; a vzpřímeně se tyčil, zatímco na nejvyšším obzoru byl. Potom se přiblížil a dolů se spustil, až na vzdálenost dvou luků či ještě blíže byl, a vnukl svému služebníkovi to, co mu vnukl. A srdce jeho mu v tom, co viděl, nelhalo. Chcete snad pochybnost vyslovit o tom, co zřel? A věru jej viděl již u příležitosti sestoupení jiného poblíže lotosového stromu u okraje nejzazšího, u něhož je zahrada příbytku věčného. A když přikrylo lotosový strom to, co jej krylo, oko se neodvrátilo ani nebloudilo, a věru spatřil on největší ze znamení Pána svého!
Mohl by mít Aláh syna?
Ano
Kdyby si byl Bůh přál mít děti, byl by si věru vybral podle libosti z těch, které stvořil. Sláva Jemu - On Bůh je jediný, vše podmaňující.
Ne
Tvůrce nebes a země jak by mohl mít děti, když nemá družku žádnou a Sám stvořil všechny věci a o všem je vševědoucí.
Je možné mít syna bez partnera?
Ano
Pravila: „Jak bych mohla chlapce míti, když se mě nedotkl smrtelník žádný a já nejsem ženou nepočestnou!“ Odpověděl: „Staniž se tak, neb Pán tvůj pravil: Toto je pro mne snadné, a věru jej učiníme znamením pro lidi i milosrdenstvím od Nás seslaným, a je to již věcí rozhodnutou!“
Ne
Tvůrce nebes a země jak by mohl mít děti, když nemá družku žádnou a Sám stvořil všechny věci a o všem je vševědoucí.
Je Aláh vševědoucí?
Ano
Rci: „Chcete snad poučovat Boha o náboženství svém, když Bůh dobře zná vše, co na nebesích je i na zemi? Bůh o každé věci je vševědoucí.“
Ne, Aláh vás musí otestovat, aby věděl jací jste
Budeme vás zkoušet trochu strachem a hladem a ztrátou na majetku i lidech a plodech - avšak oznam zvěst radostnou trpělivým
Může jen Aláh vidět neviditelné?
Ano
Říkají: „Pročpak mu nebylo sesláno od Pána jeho znamení nějaké?“ Odpověz: „Nepoznatelné [přesněji: Neviditelné] jedině Bohu přísluší. Čekejte a já také s vámi čekat budu!“
Ne, Šalamoun může také
I řekl jeden ifrít z džinů [džinové jsou neviditelní]: „Já, já přinesu ti jej, dříve než zvedneš se z místa svého. A věru jsem k tomu silný dost i spolehlivý.“
Svádí Aláh lidi na špatnou stezku?
Ne
A Bůh věru není takový, aby dal zbloudit lidem poté, co uvedl je na správnou cestu, a dříve než jim objasnil to, čeho se mají obávat. A Bůh věru je o každé věci vševědoucí.
Ano
A jsou mezi nimi někteří, kdož ti naslouchají, ale pokryli jsme srdce jejich clonou a uši jejich hluchotou, aby nepochopili, a i když vidí znamení všemožná, nevěří v ně, a když potom přijdou k tobě, aby se s tebou hádali, říkají ti, kdož nevěří: „To jsou jen povídačky starých!“
Je Aláh podobný někomu nebo něčemu?
Ne
a není nikoho, kdo je mu roven.“
Ano, má obličej
a zůstane jen tvář Pána tvého, majestátnosti a velkomyslnosti plného.
Ano, má oči
Do truhly jej vlož a do moře jej vhoď, a nechť moře jej na břeh vyvrhne, a tehdy se ho nepřítel Můj i jeho ujme.'A já jsem na tebe Svou lásku vrhl, abys před Mýma očima vyrostl.
Ano, má ruce
A říkají židé: „Boží ruka je spoutána okovy!“ Nechť jsou jejich ruce spoutány okovy a nechť jsou prokleti za to, co říkají! Nikoliv, obě Jeho ruce jsou rozevřeny a On uštědřuje, jak chce. To, co ti bylo sesláno od Pána tvého, v mnohých z nich jen rozmnožuje vzpurnost a nevěrectví. A uvrhli jsme mezi ně nepřátelství a nenávist až do dne zmrtvýchvstání. A kdykoliv zažehnou oheň války, Bůh jej uhasí; a usilují šířit po zemi pohoršení, avšak Bůh nemiluje ty, kdož pohoršení šíří.
Ano, má ruce
kromě Iblíse, jenž pyšný byl a patřil k nevděčným. I pravil Bůh: „Iblísi, co ti bránilo, abys padl před tím, co rukama vlastníma stvořil jsem? Jsi pyšný tak, či patříš snad ke vznešeným?“
Ano, má ruce
Oni neocenili Boha podle ceny Jeho skutečné, ačkoliv země celá bude v hrsti Jeho v den zmrtvýchvstání a nebesa budou svinuta v pravici Jeho. Sláva Jemu, jenž vznešenější je než vše, co k Němu přidružují!
Ano, má nohy
v den, kdy lýtka budou obnažena a oni výzvu dostanou, aby na zem padli, a schopni toho nebudou.
Ano, sedí
a stát budou andělé na krajích jeho; v ten den osm jich nad sebou ponese trůn Pána tvého.
Je Aláh hodný a slitovný?
Ano
Ne
Věru ty, kdož neuvěřili v Naše znamení, My v ohni sežehneme, a kdykoliv vyschnou kůže jejich, vyměníme je za jiné, aby tak trestu okusili. A Bůh zajisté je mocný, moudrý.
Mluví Aláh s lidmi přímo?
Ne
A není dáno smrtelníku žádnému, aby s ním Bůh rozmlouval, leda prostřednictvím vnuknutí či zpoza clony ...
Ano, k Mohamedovi
A srdce jeho mu v tom, co viděl, nelhalo.
Ano, k obyčejnému člověku
...A usmrtil jej Bůh na sto let, potom jej vzkřísil a zeptal se jej: „Jak dlouho jsi takto setrval?“ ...
Ano, k Adamovi
I pravili jsme: „Odejděte! Jeden druhému budete nepřáteli; země bude místem pobytu vašeho a užívání dočasného!“
Ano, k Mojžíšovi
A také jiným poslům, o nichž jsme ti již dříve vyprávěli, a dalším, o nichž jsme ti nevyprávěli - a Bůh věru hovořil s Mojžíšem řečí jasnou -
Odpouští Aláh všechno?
Ano
Rci: „Služebníci moji, kteří jste se dopustili přestupků proti sobě samým, neztrácejte naději v milosrdenství Boží, vždyť Bůh věru odpouští viny všechny - On odpouštějící je i slitovný.
Ne
Bůh neodpustí, je-li k Němu něco přidružováno, ale odpustí vše, co je mimo toto, tomu, komu chce. A kdo přidružuje k Bohu, ten zabloudil zblouděním dalekým.
Odpouští Aláh uctívání jiných bohů (tzv. širk)?
Ne
Bůh věru neodpustí, je-li k Němu něco přidružováno, ale odpustí, komu chce, věci jiné než toto. A kdokoli přidružuje k Bohu, ten dopouští se hříchu těžkého.
Ne
Bůh neodpustí, je-li k Němu něco přidružováno, ale odpustí vše, co je mimo toto, tomu, komu chce. A kdo přidružuje k Bohu, ten zabloudil zblouděním dalekým.
Ano
Vlastníci Písma tě žádají, abys jim snesl z nebe Písmo; a žádali již kdysi od Mojžíše více než toto, řkouce: „Dej nám spatřit Boha zřetelně!“ A zasáhl je blesk za nespravedlnost jejich. I vzali si tele jako modlu poté, co se jim již dostalo důkazů jasných. A odpustili jsme jim to a dali jsme Mojžíšovi pravomoc zjevnou.
Ano
kromě těch, kdož pokání činili, uvěřili a zbožné skutky konali. A takovým Bůh špatné skutky jejich za dobré vymění, vždyť Bůh odpouštějící je a slitovný.
Jak dlouhý je Aláhův den?
Jeden tisíc let
A vyžadují na tobě, abys uspíšil příchod trestu, avšak Bůh slib Svůj nezruší. A jeden den je věru u Pána tvého jako tisíc let z těch, jež vy počítáte.
Padesát tisíc let
Stoupají k němu po nich andělé i duch v den, jehož délka let padesát tisíc měří.
Which was created first; Universe or Earth?
Universe
Are ye the harder to create, or is the heaven that He built?
Earth
He placed therein firm hills rising above it, and blessed it and measured therein its sustenance in four Days, alike for (all) who ask;
Then turned He to the heaven when it was smoke, and said unto it and unto the earth: Come both of you, willingly or loth. They said: We come, obedient.
Earth
He it is Who created for you all that is in the earth. Then turned He to the heaven, and fashioned it as seven heavens. And He is knower of all things.
Heaven and Earth came apart or together?
Together (universe contracting)
Moreover He comprehended in His design the sky, and it had been (as) smoke: He said to it and to the earth: "Come ye together, willingly or unwillingly." They said: "We do come (together), in willing obedience.
Apart (universe expanding)
Have not those who disbelieve known that the heavens and the earth were of one piece, then We parted them, and we made every living thing of water? Will they not then believe?
How long did it take Allah to create heaven and earth?
6 days
Verily your Lord is Allah, who created the heavens and the earth in six days, and is firmly established on the throne (of authority), regulating and governing all things. No intercessor (can plead with Him) except after His leave (hath been obtained). This is Allah your Lord; Him therefore serve ye: will ye not receive admonition?
8 days
Say: Is it that ye deny Him Who created the earth in two Days? And do ye join equals with Him? He is the Lord of (all) the Worlds.
He placed therein firm hills rising above it, and blessed it and measured therein its sustenance in four Days, alike for (all) who ask;
Then He ordained them seven heavens in two Days and inspired in each heaven its mandate; and We decked the nether heaven with lamps, and rendered it inviolable. That is the measuring of the Mighty, the Knower
What was Man created from?
Dust
The similitude of Jesus before Allah is as that of Adam; He created him from dust, then said to him: "Be". And he was.
Nothing
But does not man call to mind that We created him before out of nothing?
Clay
We created man from sounding clay, from mud moulded into shape;
Sperm
He has created man from a sperm-drop; and behold this same (man) becomes an open disputer!
Blood clot
Created man, out of a (mere) clot of congealed blood:
Water
Do not the Unbelievers see that the heavens and the earth were joined together (as one unit of creation), before we clove them asunder? We made from water every living thing. Will they not then believe?
How long does it take Allah to create?
Long time
Your Guardian-Lord is Allah, Who created the heavens and the earth in six days, and is firmly established on the throne (of authority): He draweth the night as a veil o'er the day, each seeking the other in rapid succession: He created the sun, the moon, and the stars, (all) governed by laws under His command. Is it not His to create and to govern? Blessed be Allah, the Cherisher and Sustainer of the worlds!
Instant
The Originator of the heavens and the earth! When He decreeth a thing, He saith unto it only: Be! and it is.
When do people come back to life?
On the appointed Hour (Day of Judgement)
And verily the Hour will come: there can be no doubt about it, or about (the fact) that Allah will raise up all who are in the graves.
Immediately after their death
Think not of those, who are slain in the way of Allah, as dead. Nay, they are living. With their Lord they have provision.
Is there heaven and hell only?
Yes
Verily Allah will admit those who believe and do righteous deeds, to Gardens beneath which rivers flow; while those who reject Allah will enjoy (this world) and eat as cattle eat; and the Fire will be their abode.
No, purgatory too
Between them is a veil. And on the Heights are men who know them all by their marks. And they call unto the dwellers of the Garden: Peace be unto you! They enter it not although they hope (to enter).
Is intercession possible?
No
Then guard yourselves against a-Day when one soul shall not avail another, nor shall compensation be accepted from her nor shall intercession profit her nor shall anyone be helped (from outside).
No
O children of Israel! call to mind My favor which I bestowed on you and that I made you excel the nations. And be on your guard against a day when one soul shall not avail another in the least, neither shall intercession on its behalf be accepted, nor shall any compensation be taken from it, nor shall they be helped.
Yes
On that Day shall no intercession avail except for those for whom permission has been granted by (Allah) Most Gracious and whose word is acceptable to Him.
Yes
Verily your Lord is Allah, who created the heavens and the earth in six days, and is firmly established on the throne (of authority), regulating and governing all things. No intercessor (can plead with Him) except after His leave (hath been obtained). This is Allah your Lord; Him therefore serve ye: will ye not receive admonition
Width of garden; 1 heaven or plural heavens?
More than one heaven (plural, samawaat)
a Garden whose width is that (of the whole) of the heavens and the earth, prepared for the righteous
Only one heaven (singular, sama)
a Garden (of Bliss), the width whereof is as the width of the heaven and the earth, prepared for those who believe in Allah
Who will men be with in paradise?
With their wives from Earth
Enter ye the Garden, ye and your wives, in (beauty and) rejoicing.
With heavenly virgins
They will recline (with ease) on Thrones (of dignity) arranged in ranks; and We shall join them to Companions, with beautiful big and lustrous eyes.
Do all Muslims go to hell for some time?
Yes
Not one of you but will pass over it: this is, with thy Lord, a Decree which must be accomplished.Afterwards he may save some of the pious, God-fearing Muslims out of the burning fire
No
Verily Allah will admit those who believe and do righteous deeds, to Gardens beneath which rivers flow; while those who reject Allah will enjoy (this world) and eat as cattle eat; and the Fire will be their abode
No
And if ye are slain, or die, in the way of Allah,
forgiveness and mercy from Allah are far better than all they could amass.
And if ye die, or are slain, Lo! it is unto Allah that ye are brought together.
Will non-Muslims go to hell forever?
Not necessarily
One day will He gather them all together, (and say): "O ye assembly of Jinns! Much (toll) did ye take of men." Their friends amongst men will say: "Our Lord! we made profit from each other: but (alas!) we reached our term - which thou didst appoint for us." He will say: "The Fire be your dwelling-place: you will dwell therein for ever, except as Allah willeth." for thy Lord is full of wisdom and knowledge.
Not necessarily
Those who are wretched shall be in the Fire: There will be for them therein (nothing but) the heaving of sighs and sobs: They will dwell therein for all the time that the heavens and the earth endure, except as thy Lord willeth: for thy Lord is the (sure) accomplisher of what He planneth. And those who are blessed shall be in the Garden: They will dwell therein so long for all the time that the heavens and the earth endure, except as thy Lord willeth: a gift without break
Not eternal (Huqb is seventy or eighty years, and every day of it is like one thousand years according to your reckoning in this life—ibn Kathir)
They will dwell therein for ages.
Yes
And those who followed shall say: Had there been for us a return, then we would renounce them as they have renounced us. Thus will Allah show them their deeds to be intense regret to them, and they shall not come forth from the fire
Yes
Such is the requital of the enemies of Allah,- the Fire: therein will be for them the Eternal Home: a (fit) requital, for that they were wont to reject Our Signs
Will Jesus burn in Hell?
Yes, because he is worshipped as God by Christians
Lo! ye (idolaters) and that which ye worship beside Allah are fuel of hell. Thereunto ye will come. If these had been gods they would not have come thither, but all will abide therein.
No
Behold! the angels said: "O Mary! Allah giveth thee glad tidings of a Word from Him: his name will be Christ Jesus, the son of Mary, held in honour in this world and the Hereafter and of (the company of) those nearest to Allah;
What will be the food in hell?
Only thorns/ dhari
"No food will there be for them but a bitter Dhari"
Only pus
Nor hath he any food except the corruption from the washing of wounds
Also zaqqum, hell fruit
The shoots of its fruit-stalks are like the heads of devils
What is the purpose of mankind?
Only to worship Allah
I created the jinn and humankind only that they might worship Me
Also to pursue the habits/sunnah of Muhammad
Say: "O men! I am sent unto you all, as the Messenger of Allah, to Whom belongeth the dominion of the heavens and the earth: there is no god but He: it is He That giveth both life and death. So believe in Allah and His Messenger, the Unlettered Prophet, who believeth in Allah and His words: follow him that (so) ye may be guided."
Are all human races considered equal?
No
Allah did choose Adam and Noah, the family of Abraham, and the family of 'Imran above all people,
No
Children of Israel! call to mind the (special) favour which I bestowed upon you, and that I preferred you to all other (for My Message).
Yes
O people, we created you from the same male and female, and rendered you distinct peoples and tribes, that you may recognize one another. The best among you in the sight of GOD is the most righteous. GOD is Omniscient, Cognizant.
Does everyone bear his own burden?
Yes
Say: "Shall I seek for (my) Cherisher other than Allah, when He is the Cherisher of all things (that exist)? Every soul draws the meed of its acts on none but itself: no bearer of burdens can bear the burden of another. Your goal in the end is towards Allah: He will tell you the truth of the things wherein ye disputed."
Yes
Nor can a bearer of burdens bear another's burdens if one heavily laden should call another to (bear) his load. Not the least portion of it can be carried (by the other). Even though he be nearly related. Thou canst but admonish such as fear their Lord unseen and establish regular Prayer. And whoever purifies himself does so for the benefit of his own soul; and the destination (of all) is to Allah.
Yes
On no soul doth Allah Place a burden greater than it can bear. It gets every good that it earns, and it suffers every ill that it earns. (Pray:) "Our Lord! Condemn us not if we forget or fall into error; our Lord! Lay not on us a burden Like that which Thou didst lay on those before us; Our Lord! Lay not on us a burden greater than we have strength to bear. Blot out our sins, and grant us forgiveness. Have mercy on us. Thou art our Protector; Help us against those who stand against faith."
No
Let them bear, on the Day of Judgment, their own burdens in full, and also (something) of the burdens of those without knowledge, whom they misled. Alas, how grievous the burdens they will bear!
No
When it is said to them, "Believe in what Allah Hath sent down, "they say, "We believe in what was sent down to us:" yet they reject all besides, even if it be Truth confirming what is with them. Say: "Why then have ye slain the prophets of Allah in times gone by, if ye did indeed believe?"
No
Allah has certainly heard the saying of those who said: Surely Allah is poor and we are rich. I will record what they say, and their killing the prophets unjustly, and I will say: Taste the chastisement of burning.
No
They will bear their own burdens, and (other) burdens along with their own, and on the Day of Judgments they will be called to account for their falsehoods.
Does Man have free will?
No
No soul can believe, except by the will of Allah, and He will place doubt (or obscurity) on those who will not understand.
Yes
With profit) to whoever among you wills to go straight
When was our fate written?
Before Allah created the heavens and the Earth
No misfortune can happen on earth or in your souls but is recorded in a decree before We bring it into existence:
On laylatul qadr
Surely We revealed it on a blessed night surely We are ever warning
Who takes peoples souls?
One angel
Say: "The Angel of Death, put in charge of you, will (duly) take your souls: then shall ye be brought back to your Lord."
Many angels
But how (will it be) when the angels take their souls at death, and smite their faces and their backs?
Allah
It is Allah that takes the souls (of men) at death; and those that die not (He takes) during their sleep: those on whom He has passed the decree of death, He keeps back (from returning to life), but the rest He sends (to their bodies) for a term appointed verily in this are Signs for those who reflect.
Who was the first Muslim?
Muhammed
Say: "Shall I take for my protector any other than Allah, the Maker of the heavens and the earth? And He it is that feedeth but is not fed." Say: "Nay! but I am commanded to be the first of those who bow to Allah (in Islam), and be not thou of the company of those who join gods with Allah."
No partner hath He: this am I commanded, and I am the first of those who bow to His will.
"And I am commanded to be the first of those who bow to Allah in Islam."
Moses
When Moses came to the place appointed by Us, and his Lord addressed him, He said: "O my Lord! show (Thyself) to me, that I may look upon thee." Allah said: "By no means canst thou see Me (direct); But look upon the mount; if it abide in its place, then shalt thou see Me." When his Lord manifested His glory on the Mount, He made it as dust. And Moses fell down in a swoon. When he recovered his senses he said: "Glory be to Thee! to Thee I turn in repentance, and I am the first to believe."
Abraham
And this was the legacy that Abraham left to his sons, and so did Jacob; "Oh my sons! Allah hath chosen the Faith for you; then die not except in the Faith of Islam."
Abraham was not a Jew nor yet a Christian; but he was true in Faith, and bowed his will to Allah's (Which is Islam), and he joined not gods with Allah.
Adam
Allah did choose Adam and Noah, the family of Abraham, and the family of 'Imran above all people,-
Egyptians
Lo! we ardently hope that our Lord will forgive us our sins because we are the first of the believers
Jesus and his disciples
When Jesus found Unbelief on their part He said: "Who will be My helpers to (the work of) Allah?" Said the disciples: "We are Allah's helpers: We believe in Allah, and do thou bear witness that we are Muslims.
"And behold! I inspired the disciples to have faith in Me and Mine Messenger: they said, 'We have faith, and do thou bear witness that we bow to Allah as Muslims'".
Is Allah the only Wali?
Yes
Unto Allah belongeth the dominion of the heavens and the earth. He giveth life and He taketh it. Except for Him ye have no protector nor helper.
No
Your (real) friends are (no less than) Allah, His Messenger, and the (fellowship of) believers,- those who establish regular prayers and regular charity, and they bow down humbly (in worship).
Does a Muslim have only one mother?
Yes
If any men among you divorce their wives by Zihar (calling them mothers), they cannot be their mothers: None can be their mothers except those who gave them birth. And in fact they use words (both) iniquitous and false: but truly Allah is one that blots out (sins), and forgives (again and again).
No (plural mothers)
Forbidden unto you are your mothers, and your daughters, and your sisters, and your father's sisters, and your mother's sisters, and your brother's daughters and your sister's daughters, and your foster-mothers, and your foster-sisters, and your mothers-in-law, and your step-daughters who are under your protection (born) of your women unto whom ye have gone in - but if ye have not gone in unto them, then it is no sin for you (to marry their daughters) - and the wives of your sons who (spring) from your own loins. And (it is forbidden unto you) that ye should have two sisters together, except what hath already happened (of that nature) in the past. Lo! Allah is ever Forgiving, Merciful.
No
The Prophet is closer to the Believers than their own selves, and his wives are their mothers. Blood-relations among each other have closer personal ties, in the Decree of Allah. Than (the Brotherhood of) Believers and Muhajirs: nevertheless do ye what is just to your closest friends: such is the writing in the Decree (of Allah).
Strength of believers
One Muslim is more powerful than 10 non-Muslims
If there be of you twenty steadfast they shall overcome two hundred, and if there be of you a hundred (steadfast) they shall overcome a thousand of those who disbelieve
One Muslim can overcome two non-Muslims
So if there be of you a steadfast hundred they shall overcome two hundred, and if there be of you a thousand (steadfast) they shall overcome two thousand by permission of Allah.
Can you eat non-halal meat?
Yes
This day are (all) things good and pure made lawful unto you. The food of the People of the Book is lawful unto you and yours is lawful unto them. (Lawful unto you in marriage) are (not only) chaste women who are believers, but chaste women among the People of the Book, revealed before your time,- when ye give them their due dowers, and desire chastity, not lewdness, nor secret intrigues if any one rejects faith, fruitless is his work, and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (all spiritual good).
No
So eat of (meats) on which Allah's name hath been pronounced, if ye have faith in His signs.
Is jewellery okay?
Yes
O Children of Adam! wear your beautiful apparel at every time and place of prayer: eat and drink: But waste not by excess, for Allah loveth not the wasters.
It is He Who has made the sea subject, that ye may eat thereof flesh that is fresh and tender, and that ye may extract therefrom ornaments to wear; and thou seest the ships therein
No
Qarun was doubtless, of the people of Moses; but he acted insolently towards them: such were the treasures We had bestowed on him that their very keys would have been a burden to a body of strong men, behold, his people said to him: "Exult not, for Allah loveth not those who exult (in riches).
Is an adopted child real family?
No
Allah has not made for any man two hearts in his (one) body: nor has He made your wives whom ye divorce by Zihar your mothers: nor has He made your adopted sons your sons. Such is (only) your (manner of) speech by your mouths. But Allah tells (you) the Truth, and He shows the (right) Way.
but here a foster mother is family!
But a foster mother is real family
Forbidden unto you are your mothers, and your daughters, and your sisters, and your father's sisters, and your mother's sisters, and your brother's daughters and your sister's daughters, and your foster-mothers, and your foster-sisters, and your mothers-in-law, and your step-daughters who are under your protection (born) of your women unto whom ye have gone in - but if ye have not gone in unto them, then it is no sin for you (to marry their daughters) - and the wives of your sons who (spring) from your own loins. And (it is forbidden unto you) that ye should have two sisters together, except what hath already happened (of that nature) in the past. Lo! Allah is ever Forgiving, Merciful.
Is drinking alcohol okay?
Yes, we will drink Alcohol with Allah for an eternity
Surely the pious will be in bliss ... their thirst will be slaked with pure wine sealed.
Paradise has rivers of Alcohol
A similitude of the Garden which those who keep their duty (to Allah) are promised: Therein are rivers of water unpolluted ... and rivers of wine delicious to the drinkers. .
Yes
And from the fruit of the date-palm and the vine, ye get out wholesome drink and food: behold, in this also is a sign for those who are wise
Yes, as long as you're not praying
O ye who believe! Draw not near unto prayer when ye are drunken, till ye know that which ye utter, nor when ye are polluted, save when journeying upon the road, till ye have bathed. And if ye be ill, or on a journey, or one of you cometh from the closet, or ye have touched women, and ye find not water, then go to high clean soil and rub your faces and your hands (therewith). Lo! Allah is Benign, Forgiving.
Quite bad
O ye who believe! Strong drink and games of chance and idols and divining arrows are only an infamy of Satan's handiwork. Leave it aside in order that ye may succeed.
Huge sin
They question thee about strong drink and games of chance. Say: In both is great sin, and (some) utility for men; but the sin of them is greater than their usefulness. And they ask thee what they ought to spend. Say: that which is superfluous. Thus Allah maketh plain to you (His) revelations, that haply ye may reflect
Alcohol is from Satan
O you who believe! Strong drink and games of chance and idols and divine arrows are only an infamy of Satan's handiwork. Leave it aside that you may succeed
How many sacred months are there?
Four
The number of months in the sight of Allah is twelve (in a year)- so ordained by Him the day He created the heavens and the earth; of them four are sacred: that is the straight usage. So wrong not yourselves therein, and fight the Pagans all together as they fight you all together. But know that Allah is with those who restrain themselves.
One
O ye who believe! Violate not the sanctity of the symbols of Allah, nor of the sacred month, nor of the animals brought for sacrifice, nor the garlands that mark out such animals, nor the people resorting to the sacred house, seeking of the bounty and good pleasure of their Lord. But when ye are clear of the sacred precincts and of pilgrim garb, ye may hunt and let not the hatred of some people in (once) shutting you out of the Sacred Mosque lead you to transgression (and hostility on your part). Help ye one another in righteousness and piety, but help ye not one another in sin and rancour: fear Allah: for Allah is strict in punishment.
What does Allah do with apostates?
Punishes them
But if any turn away and reject Allah,- Allah will punish him with a mighty Punishment,

Is there compulsion in Islam?
No
There is no compulsion in religion. The right direction is henceforth distinct from error. And he who rejecteth false deities and believeth in Allah hath grasped a firm handhold which will never break. Allah is Hearer, Knower.
No
Unto you your religion and unto me my religion
Yes
I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Therefore strike off their heads and strike off every fingertip of them
Yes, unless the disbelievers pay you.
Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the last day, nor hold that which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger [Muhammad], nor acknowledge the religion of truth [Islam], from among the people of the book [Jews and Christians] until they pay the Jezia [special taxes paid by the Jews and
Will Allah reward the good deeds of non-Muslims?
No
It is not for such as join gods with Allah, to visit or maintain the mosques of Allah while they witness against their own souls to infidelity. The works of such bear no fruit: In Fire shall they dwell.
Yes
And whoso doeth good an atom's weight will see it then
Who sends disbelievers astray?
Allah
Of them there are some who (pretend to) listen to thee; but We have thrown veils on their hearts, So they understand it not, and deafness in their ears; if they saw every one of the signs, not they will believe in them; in so much that when they come to thee, they (but) dispute with thee; the Unbelievers say: "These are nothing but tales of the ancients."
Allah
Allah leaves stray whom He wills and guides whom He wills
Allah
No soul can believe except by the will of Allah
Satan
(Iblis) said: "O my Lord! because Thou hast put me in the wrong, I will make (wrong) fair-seeming to them on the earth, and I will put them all in the wrong
Satan
Who whispereth in the hearts of mankind
Satan
I will mislead them, and I will create in them false desires....
Themselves
Hath not the story reached them of those before them?- the People of Noah, and 'Ad, and Thamud; the People of Abraham, the men of Midian, and the cities overthrown. To them came their messengers with clear signs. It is not Allah Who wrongs them, but they wrong their own souls.
Themselves
It is they who have lost their own souls, that they will not believe
Themselves
It was not Allah who wronged them, but they wronged their own souls
For whom is salvation?
For all pious theists
Those who believe (in the Qur'an), those who follow the Jewish (scriptures), and the Sabians and the Christians,- any who believe in Allah and the Last Day, and work righteousness,- on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve.
For all pious theists
Verily! Those who believe and those who are Jews and Christians, and Sabians, whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day and do righteous good deeds shall have their reward with their Lord, on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve.
For Muslims only
If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (submission to Allah), never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter He will be in the ranks of those who have lost (All spiritual good).
For Muslims only
Truly, the religion with Allah is Islam. Those who were given the Scripture (Jews and Christians) did not differ except, out of mutual jealousy, after knowledge had come to them. And whoever disbelieves in the Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, signs, revelations, etc.) of Allah, then surely, Allah is Swift in calling to account..
How to treat those who do not believe in an afterlife
Be kind
Tell those who believe, to forgive those who do not look forward to the Days of Allah: It is for Him to recompense (for good or ill) each People according to what they have earned.
Be kind
The worshipers of the Most Gracious are those who tread the earth gently, and when the ignorant speak to them, they only utter peace
Attack them
Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, (even if they are) of the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.
What to do with infidel family?
Stay with family
And if they contend with you that you should associate with Me what you have no knowledge of, do not obey them, and keep company with them in this world kindly, and follow the way of him who turns to Me, then to Me is your return, then will I inform you of what you did
Dont stay with family
O ye who believe! Choose not your fathers nor your brethren for friends if they take pleasure in disbelief rather than faith. Whoso of you taketh them for friends, such are wrong-doers.
Should Muslims have Christians for friends?
Yes
Strongest among men in enmity to the believers wilt thou find the Jews and Pagans; and nearest among them in love to the believers wilt thou find those who say, "We are Christians": because amongst these are men devoted to learning and men who have renounced the world, and they are not arrogant.
Yes
We sent after them Jesus the son of Mary, and bestowed on him the Gospel; and we ordained in the hearts of those who followed him compassion and mercy.
No
O ye who believe! Take not the Jews and the Christians for friends. They are friends one to another. He among you who taketh them for friends is (one) of them. Lo! Allah guideth not wrongdoing folk.
Christians and Jews hate or love each other?
Hate each other
The Jews say: "Allah's hand is tied up." Be their hands tied up and be they accursed for the (blasphemy) they utter. Nay, both His hands are widely outstretched: He giveth and spendeth (of His bounty) as He pleaseth. But the revelation that cometh to thee from Allah increaseth in most of them their obstinate rebellion and blasphemy. Amongst them we have placed enmity and hatred till the Day of Judgment. Every time they kindle the fire of war, Allah doth extinguish it; but they (ever) strive to do mischief on earth. And Allah loveth not those who do mischief.
Love each other
O ye who believe! take not the Jews and the Christians for your friends and protectors: They are but friends and protectors to each other. And he amongst you that turns to them (for friendship) is of them. Verily Allah guideth not a people unjust.
Can you marry non-Muslims?
No
Do not marry unbelieving women (idolaters), until they believe: A slave woman who believes is better than an unbelieving woman, even though she allures you. Nor marry (your girls) to unbelievers until they believe: A man slave who believes is better than an unbeliever, even though he allures you. Unbelievers do (but) beckon you to the Fire. But Allah beckons by His Grace to the Garden (of bliss) and forgiveness, and makes His Signs clear to mankind: That they may celebrate His praise.
Yes (even though Qur'an 9;29 calls Christians idolaters)
This day are (all) good things made lawful for you. The food of those who have received the Scripture is lawful for you, and your food is lawful for them. And so are the virtuous women of the believers and the virtuous women of those who received the Scripture before you (lawful for you) when ye give them their marriage portions and live with them in honour, not in fornication, nor taking them as secret concubines. Whoso denieth the faith, his work is vain and he will be among the losers in the Hereafter.
Do Muslims and non-Muslim theists worship the same god?
No
Nor will ye worship that which I worship.
Yes
And dispute ye not with the People of the Book, except with means better (than mere disputation), unless it be with those of them who inflict wrong (and injury): but say, "We believe in the revelation which has come down to us and in that which came down to you; Our Allah and your Allah is one; and it is to Him we bow (in Islam)."
Will Jews and Christians be saved from hell?
Yes
Those who believe (in the Qur'an), and those who follow the Jewish (scriptures), and the Christians and the Sabians,- any who believe in Allah and the Last Day, and work righteousness, shall have their reward with their Lord; on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve.
Yes
Those who believe (in the Qur'an), those who follow the Jewish (scriptures), and the Sabians and the Christians,- any who believe in Allah and the Last Day, and work righteousness,- on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve.
No
Truly, the religion with Allah is Islam. Those who were given the Scripture (Jews and Christians) did not differ except, out of mutual jealousy, after knowledge had come to them. And whoever disbelieves in the Ayah (proofs, evidences, verses, signs, revelations, etc.) of Allah, then surely, Allah is Swift in calling to account.
No
If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (submission to Allah), never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (All spiritual good).
Who does Allah send as prophets?
Only single men from amongst a community
Nor did We send before thee (as messengers) any but men, whom we did inspire,- (men) living in human habitations. Do they not travel through the earth, and see what was the end of those before them? But the home of the hereafter is best, for those who do right. Will ye not then understand?
Also angels
Allah chooses messengers from angels and from men for Allah is He Who hears and sees (all things).
Also a beast
And when the Word is fulfilled against them (the unjust), we shall produce from the earth a beast to (face) them: He will speak to them, for that mankind did not believe with assurance in Our Signs
Entire tribes
We have sent thee inspiration, as We sent it to Noah and the Messengers after him: we sent inspiration to Abraham, Isma'il, Isaac, Jacob and
the tribes, to Jesus, Job, Jonah, Aaron, and solomon, and to David We gave the Psalms
The earth itself
And the earth brings forth her burdens, And man says: What has befallen her? On that day she shall tell her news, Because your Lord had inspired her.
Are all Islamic prophets equal?
Yes
The Messenger believeth in what hath been revealed to him from his Lord, as do the men of faith. Each one (of them) believeth in Allah, His angels, His books, and His messengers. We make no distinction between any of His messengers. And they say: "We hear, and we obey: (We seek) Thy forgiveness, our Lord, and to Thee is the end of all journeys."
No
Those messengers We endowed with gifts, some above others: To one of them Allah spoke; others He raised to degrees (of honour); to Jesus the son of Mary We gave clear (Signs), and strengthened him with the holy spirit. If Allah had so willed, succeeding generations would not have fought among each other, after clear (Signs) had come to them, but they (chose) to wrangle, some believing and others rejecting. If Allah had so willed, they would not have fought each other; but Allah Fulfilleth His plan.
Will Muhammad go to Heaven?
Yes, he will be forgiven of all sins
We have given thee (O Muhammad) a clear victory. That Allah may forgive thee of thy sin that which is past and that which is to come.
He is not sure
Say: "I am no bringer of new-fangled doctrine among the messengers, nor do I know what will be done with me or with you.
How did Abraham confront the idolaters?
Destroys idols
So he broke them to pieces, (all) but the biggest of them, that they might turn (and address themselves) to it.
Does nothing and goes away
When he had turned away from them and from those whom they worshipped besides Allah, We bestowed on him Isaac and Jacob, and each one of them We made a prophet
Can messengers perform miracles?
No
And they say: "Why are not miracles sent down to him from his Lord? Say: "The signs are only with Allah , and I am only a plain warner."
Yes
We have made some of these apostles to excel the others; among them are they to whom Allah spoke, and some of them He exalted by (many degrees of) rank; and We gave clear miracles to Isa son of Marium, and strengthened him with the holy spirit.
Are all messengers descended from Abraham?
Yes
and We established the prophethood and the Scripture among his seed.
No
And verily We have raised among every people a messenger,
(proclaiming): Serve Allah and shun false gods.
Was Abraham an idolator?
No
And they say, 'Be Jews or Christians and you shall be guided.' Say thou: 'Nay, rather the creed of Abraham, a man of pure faith; he was no idolater.
Yes
When the night covered him over, He saw a star: He said: "This is my Lord." But when it set, He said: "I love not those that set."
Was Noah banished or exiled by his people?
Yes
Before them the People of Noah rejected (their messenger): they rejected Our servant, and said, "Here is one possessed!", and he was driven out.
No, he regularly spoke to them
Forthwith he (starts) constructing the Ark: Every time that the chiefs of his people passed by him, they threw ridicule on him. He said: "If ye ridicule us now, we (in our turn) can look down on you with ridicule likewise!
Did Noah's son survive the great flood?
Yes
Remember) Noah, when he cried (to Us) aforetime: We listened to his (prayer) and delivered him and his family from great distress.
Yes
And We made his offspring the survivors.

The son replied: "I will betake myself to some mountain: it will save me from the water." Noah said: "This day nothing can save, from the command of Allah, any but those on whom He hath mercy! "And the waves came between them, and the son was among those overwhelmed in the Flood.
Was Jonah cast on the shore?
Yes
Then We cast him on a desert shore while he was sick .
No
Had not Grace from his Lord reached him, he would indeed have been cast off on the naked shore while he was reprobate
Who brought the revelation to Muhammad?
Holy spirit
Say, the Holy Spirit has brought the revelation from thy Lord in Truth, in order to strengthen those who believe, and as a Guide and Glad Tidings to Muslims
Angel jibreel
Say (O Muhammad, to mankind): Who is an enemy to Gabriel! For he it is who hath revealed (this Scripture) to thy heart by Allah's leave, confirming that which was (revealed) before it, and a guidance and glad tidings to believers;
Who is the intended audience of the revelation?
Arabs
Had We sent this as a Qur'an (in the language) other than Arabic, they would have said: "Why are not its verses explained in detail? What! (a Book) not in Arabic and (a Messenger an Arab?"
All mankind
O mankind! Now hath a proof from your Lord come unto you, and We have sent down unto you a clear light;
Illiterate people
It is He Who has sent amongst the Unlettered a messenger from among themselves, to rehearse to them His Signs, to sanctify them, and to instruct them in Scripture and Wisdom,-
How was the Qur'an revealed?
Night
Lo!
We revealed it (Quran) on a blessed night. Lo! We are ever warning
Lo!
We revealed it (Quran) on the night of Power.
Month
The month of Ramadan is the month in which the Koran was sent down.
And (it is) a Quran which we have divided (into parts), in order that you might recite it to men at intervals.
And we have revealed it by stages
And those who disbelieve say: "Why is not the Quran revealed to him all at once?" thus, that you may strengthen your heart thereby.
And we have revealed it to you gradually, in stages.
Clarity of the Qur'an?
Qur'an is clear to understand
(This is) a Book, whose verses are made decisive, then are they made plain, from the Wise, All-aware:
Not clear
He it is Who has sent down to thee the Book: In it are verses basic or fundamental (of established meaning); they are the foundation of the Book: others are allegorical. But those in whose hearts is perversity follow the part thereof that is allegorical, seeking discord, and searching for its hidden meanings, but no one knows its hidden meanings except Allah. And those who are firmly grounded in knowledge say: "We believe in the Book; the whole of it is from our Lord:" and none will grasp the Message except men of understanding.
Nobody's sure what the following verse means
Is the Qur'an in pure Arabic?
Yes
We know indeed that they say, "It is a man that teaches him." The tongue of him they wickedly point to is notably foreign, while this is Arabic, pure and clear. .
No, Qistas (foreign word)
Give full measure when ye measure, and weigh with a balance that is straight: that is the most fitting and the most advantageous in the final determination

Abrogation; does Allah change his words?
No
The word of thy Lord doth find its fulfilment in truth and in justice: None can change His words: for He is the one who heareth and knoweth all.
No
For them are glad tidings, in the life of the present and in the Hereafter; no change can there be in the words of Allah. This is indeed the supreme felicity.
Yes
None of Our revelations do We abrogate or cause to be forgotten, but We substitute something better or similar: Knowest thou not that Allah Hath power over all things?
Yes
When We substitute one revelation for another,- and Allah knows best what He reveals (in stages),- they say, "Thou art but a forger": but most of them understand not.
When did Pharaoh command killing of baby boys?
When moses was a prophet

No

(It was said to him): "Ah now!- But a little while before, wast thou in rebellion!-and thou didst mischief (and violence)!
No

Several days
So We sent against them a furious Wind through days of disaster, that We might give them a taste of a Penalty of humiliation in this life; but the Penalty of a Hereafter will be more humiliating still: and they will find no help.

Jak dlouho odstavovat dítě?
30 měsíců
Uložili jsme člověku laskavost vůči rodičům jeho; matka jeho jej ve strastech nosila a ve strastech jej porodila a jeho nošení a kojení trvalo třicet měsíců. A když dosáhl dospělosti své a dosáhl věku čtyřiceti let, zvolal: "Pane můj, vnukni mi, abych byl vděčný za dobrodiní Tvé, jímž jsi zahrnul mne i rodiče mé! Nechť konám skutky zbožné, v nichž nalezneš zalíbení, a učiň pro mne dobrým potomstvo mé. Kajícně se k Tobě obracím a jsem jedním z těch, kdož do vůle Tvé jsou odevzdáni."
24 měsíců
A uložili jsme člověku laskavost k rodičům jeho - neb nosila jej matka jeho se samými nesnázemi a odstavila jej po dvou letech - řkouce: „Buď vděčný Mně i rodičům svým neb u Mne je cíl konečný!“
