The Prophet's Morals and Attributes in the Holy Quran

(159) So by mercy from Allah, [O Muhammad], you were lenient with them. And if you had been rude [in speech] and harsh in heart, they would have disbanded from about you. So pardon them and ask forgiveness for them and consult them in the matter. And when you have decided, then rely upon Allah. Indeed, Allah loves those who rely [upon Him].

(113) And if it was not for the favor of Allah upon you, [O Muhammad], and His mercy, a group of them would have determined to mislead you. But they do not mislead except themselves, and they will not harm you at all. And Allah has revealed to you the Book and wisdom and has taught you that which you did not know. And ever has the favor of Allah upon you been great.

(50) Say, [O Muhammad], "I do not tell you that I have the depositories [containing the provision] of Allah or that I know the unseen, nor do I tell you that I am an angel. I only follow what is revealed to me." Say, "Is the blind equivalent to the seeing? Then will you not give thought?"

(157) Those who follow the Messenger, the unlettered prophet, whom they find written in what they have of the Torah and the Gospel, who enjoins upon them what is right and forbids them what is wrong and makes lawful for them the good things and prohibits for them the evil and relieves them of their burden and the shackles which were upon them. So they who have believed in him, honored him, supported him and followed the light which was sent down with him - it is those who will be the successful.

(158) Say, [O Muhammad], "O mankind, indeed I am the Messenger of Allah to you all, [from Him] to whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth. There is no deity except Him; He gives life and causes death." So believe in Allah and His Messenger, the unlettered prophet, who believes in Allah and His words, and follow him that you may be guided.

(184) Then do they not give thought? There is in their companion [Muhammad] no madness. He is not but a clear warner.

(33) But Allah would not punish them while you, [O Muhammad], are among them, and Allah would not punish them while they seek forgiveness.

(61) And among them are those who abuse the Prophet and say, "He is an ear." Say, "[It is] an ear of goodness for you that believes in Allah and believes the believers and [is] a mercy to those who believe among you." And those who abuse the Messenger of Allah - for them is a painful punishment.

(128) There has certainly come to you a Messenger from among yourselves. Grievous to him is what you suffer; [he is] concerned over you and to the believers is kind and merciful.

(16) Say, "If Allah had willed, I would not have recited it to you, nor would He have made it known to you, for I had remained among you a lifetime before it. Then will you not reason?"

(2) [Through a messenger, saying], "Do not worship except Allah. Indeed, I am to you from Him a warner and a bringer of good tidings,"

(103) And most of the people, although you strive [for it], are not believers.

(6) Then perhaps you would kill yourself through grief over them, [O Muhammad], if they do not believe in this message, [and] out of sorrow.

(110) Say, "I am only a man like you, to whom has been revealed that your god is one God. So whoever would hope for the meeting with his Lord - let him do righteous work and not associate in the worship of his Lord anyone."

(107) And We have not sent you, [O Muhammad], except as a mercy to the worlds.

(67) For every religion We have appointed rites which they perform. So, [O Muhammad], let the disbelievers not contend with you over the matter but invite them to your Lord. Indeed, you are upon straight guidance.

(35) Allah is the Light of the heavens and the earth. The example of His light is like a niche within which is a lamp, the lamp is within glass, the glass as if it were a pearly [white] star lit from [the oil of] a blessed olive tree, neither of the east nor of the west, whose oil would almost glow even if untouched by fire. Light upon light. Allah guides to His light whom He wills. And Allah presents examples for the people, and Allah is Knowing of all things.

(1) Blessed is He who sent down the Criterion upon His Servant that he may be to the worlds a warner -

(56) And We have not sent you, [O Muhammad], except as a bringer of good tidings and a warner.

(218) Who sees you when you arise

(219) And your movement among those who prostrate.

(79) So rely upon Allah; indeed, you are upon the clear truth.

(6) The Prophet is more worthy of the believers than themselves, and his wives are [in the position of] their mothers. And those of [blood] relationship are more entitled [to inheritance] in the decree of Allah than the [other] believers and the emigrants, except that you may do to your close associates a kindness [through bequest]. That was in the Book inscribed.

(28) O Prophet, say to your wives, "If you should desire the worldly life and its adornment, then come, I will provide for you and give you a gracious release.

(29) But if you should desire Allah and His Messenger and the home of the Hereafter - then indeed, Allah has prepared for the doers of good among you a great reward."

(30) O wives of the Prophet, whoever of you should commit a clear immorality - for her the punishment would be doubled two fold, and ever is that, for Allah, easy.

(40) Muhammad is not the father of [any] one of your men, but [he is] the Messenger of Allah and last of the prophets. And ever is Allah, of all things, Knowing.

(53) O you who have believed, do not enter the houses of the Prophet except when you are permitted for a meal, without awaiting its readiness. But when you are invited, then enter; and when you have eaten, disperse without seeking to remain for conversation. Indeed, that [behavior] was troubling the Prophet, and he is shy of [dismissing] you. But Allah is not shy of the truth. And when you ask [his wives] for something, ask them from behind a partition. That is purer for your hearts and their hearts. And it is not [conceivable or lawful] for you to harm the Messenger of Allah or to marry his wives after him, ever. Indeed, that would be in the sight of Allah an enormity.

(46) Say, "I only advise you of one [thing] - that you stand for Allah, [seeking truth] in pairs and individually, and then give thought." There is not in your companion any madness. He is only a warner to you before a severe punishment.

(86) Say, [O Muhammad], "I do not ask you for the Qur'an any payment, and I am not of the pretentious

(52) And thus We have revealed to you an inspiration of Our command. You did not know what is the Book or [what is] faith, but We have made it a light by which We guide whom We will of Our servants. And indeed, [O Muhammad], you guide to a straight path -

(29) However, I gave enjoyment to these [people of Makkah] and their fathers until there came to them the truth and a clear Messenger.

(41) And whether [or not] We take you away [in death], indeed, We will take retribution upon them.

(42) Or whether [or not] We show you that which We have promised them, indeed, We are Perfect in Ability.

(43) So adhere to that which is revealed to you. Indeed, you are on a straight path.

(9) Say, "I am not something original among the messengers, nor do I know what will be done with me or with you. I only follow that which is revealed to me, and I am not but a clear warner."

(1) Indeed, We have given you, [O Muhammad], a clear conquest

(2) That Allah may forgive for you what preceded of your sin and what will follow and complete His favor upon you and guide you to a straight path

(8) Indeed, We have sent you as a witness and a bringer of good tidings and a warner

(29) Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah; and those with him are forceful against the disbelievers, merciful among themselves. You see them bowing and prostrating [in prayer], seeking bounty from Allah and [His] pleasure. Their mark is on their faces from the trace of prostration. That is their description in the Torah. And their description in the Gospel is as a plant which produces its offshoots and strengthens them so they grow firm and stand upon their stalks, delighting the sowers - so that Allah may enrage by them the disbelievers. Allah has promised those who believe and do righteous deeds among them forgiveness and a great reward.

(45) We are most knowing of what they say, and you are not over them a tyrant. But remind by the Qur'an whoever fears My threat.

(29) So remind [O Muhammad], for you are not, by the favor of your Lord, a soothsayer or a madman.

(48) And be patient, [O Muhammad], for the decision of your Lord, for indeed, you are in Our eyes. And exalt [Allah] with praise of your Lord when you arise.

(2) Your companion [Muhammad] has not strayed, nor has he erred,

(3) Nor does he speak from [his own] inclination.

(56) This [Prophet] is a warner like the former warners.

(2) It is He who has sent among the unlettered a Messenger from themselves reciting to them His verses and purifying them and teaching them the Book and wisdom - although they were before in clear error -

(1) O Prophet, why do you prohibit [yourself from] what Allah has made lawful for you, seeking the approval of your wives? And Allah is Forgiving and Merciful.

(2) Allah has already ordained for you [Muslims] the dissolution of your oaths. And Allah is your protector, and He is the Knowing, the Wise.

(3) And [remember] when the Prophet confided to one of his wives a statement; and when she informed [another] of it and Allah showed it to him, he made known part of it and ignored a part. And when he informed her about it, she said, "Who told you this?" He said, "I was informed by the Knowing, the Acquainted."

(4) If you two [wives] repent to Allah, [it is best], for your hearts have deviated. But if you cooperate against him - then indeed Allah is his protector, and Gabriel and the righteous of the believers and the angels, moreover, are [his] assistants.

(5) Perhaps his Lord, if he divorced you [all], would substitute for him wives better than you - submitting [to Allah], believing, devoutly obedient, repentant, worshipping, and traveling - [ones] previously married and virgins.

(2) You are not, [O Muhammad], by the favor of your Lord, a madman.

(3) And indeed, for you is a reward uninterrupted.

(4) And indeed, you are of a great moral character.

(5) So you will see and they will see

(6) Which of you is the afflicted [by a devil].

(40) [That] indeed, the Qur'an is the word of a noble Messenger.

(41) And it is not the word of a poet; little do you believe.

(42) Nor the word of a soothsayer; little do you remember.

(23) But [I have for you] only notification from Allah, and His messages." And whoever disobeys Allah and His Messenger - then indeed, for him is the fire of Hell; they will abide therein forever.

(1) O you who wraps himself [in clothing],

(15) Indeed, We have sent to you a Messenger as a witness upon you just as We sent to Pharaoh a messenger.

(1) O you who covers himself [with a garment],

(24) And Muhammad is not a withholder of [knowledge of] the unseen.

(3) And when the seas are erupted

(6) We will make you recite, [O Muhammad], and you will not forget,

(8) And We will ease you toward ease.

(1) I swear by this city, Makkah -

(2) And you, [O Muhammad], are free of restriction in this city -

(3) Your Lord has not taken leave of you, [O Muhammad], nor has He detested [you].

(4) And the Hereafter is better for you than the first [life].

(5) And your Lord is going to give you, and you will be satisfied.

(6) Did He not find you an orphan and give [you] refuge?

(7) And He found you lost and guided [you],

(8) And He found you poor and made [you] self-sufficient.

(1) Did We not expand for you, [O Muhammad], your breast?

(2) And We removed from you your burden

(3) Which had weighed upon your back

(4) And raised high for you your repute.

(1) Indeed, We have granted you, [O Muhammad], al-Kawthar.

(2) So pray to your Lord and sacrifice [to Him alone].

(3) Indeed, your enemy is the one cut off.
