21:36 And if the unbelievers see you (Muhammad), they only take you as an object of mockery [saying]: “Is this the one who talks about your gods?” And they disbelieve in the mention of the Compassionate. 68:5-6 You shall see and they shall see, Which of you is the demented one. 61:9 It is He Who sent His Messenger forth with the guidance and the religion of truth, to make it triumph over every religion ... Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah's Apostle said, "I have been sent with the shortest expressions bearing the widest meanings, and I have been made victorious with terror, and while I was sleeping, the keys of the treasures of the world (the booty) were brought to me and put in my hand." Bukhari 52.220 |
