There are several but there is one about "Taqwaa". I love that one.

Reveleations well expounded (Fussilat)
41:30
'Good and evil deeds are not alike. Requite evil with good, and he, between whom and you is enmity, will become your dearest friend.'

faisal as salafi

every verse or the Qur'aan is powerful! one of my favourite one is

Allah said in the Qur'aan:

"Had We sent down this Qur'an on a mountain, verily, thou wouldst have seen it humble itself and shatter for fear of Allah. Such are the similitudes which We propound to men, that they may reflect."
(59:21)

and the whole of surah Tawbah is jus Subhan-Allah amazing.

Salah Uddin u shud b careful. u say he took it out of context and he will get what is coming on qiyamah? then on that brother defence u will get what sumthing for calling him stupid!

Salah-ud-din

First of all, Anwar bhai already gave me a word of caution and i admited my mistake. So why are you repeating what he told me?? So you are saying i will get a punisment for calling him stupid. Tell me how you would know??

^^ 36:36 Glory to Allah, Who created in pairs all things that the earth produces, as well as their own (human) kind and (other) things of which they have no knowledge.

AQ

49:11 O ye who believe! Let not some men among you laugh at others: It may be that the (latter) are better than the (former): Nor let some women laugh at others: It may be that the (latter are better than the (former): Nor defame nor be sarcastic to each other, nor call each other by (offensive) nicknames: Ill-seeming is a name connoting wickedness, (to be used of one) after he has believed: And those who do not desist are (indeed) doing wrong.

Chapter : 10 (Yunus) Verse : 13 [Short Commentary]

And when trouble befalls a man, he calls on Us, lying on his side, or sitting or standing, but when We have removed his trouble from him, he goes his way as though he had never called on Us for the removal of the trouble that befell him. Thus it is that the doings of the extravagant are made to seem fair in their eyes.

I am making this a sticky thread, so we can all share our experience with Holy Quran and wisdom concealed in its verses (to the best of our ability), insha'Allah.

Please share the verse(s) you read/learn and find interesting. In addition, please do not forget to mention the chapter and verse number with proper translation of verse.

I would also like to request the members who have shared verses from the Quran without mentioning the chapter and verse number to please post it again with proper reference. Thanks.

Verily, the rising by night (for Tahajjud prayer) is very hard and most potent and good for governing (the soul), and most suitable for (understanding) the Word (of Allah). (73:6)

9:50 If good befalls thee, it grieves them; but if a misfortune befalls thee, they ay, "We took indeed our precautions beforehand," and they turn away rejoicing.

9:51 Say: "Nothing will happen to us except what Allah has decreed for us: He is our protector": and on Allah let the Believers put their trust.

9:52 Say: "Can you expect for us (any fate) other than one of two glorious things- (Martyrdom or victory)? But we can expect for you either that Allah will send his punishment from Himself, or by our hands. So wait (expectant); we too will wait with you."

Kaleem

وَالْعَصْرِ إِنَّ الإنْسَانَ لَفِي خُسْرٍ إِلا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ وَتَوَاصَوْا بِالْحَقِّ وَتَوَاصَوْا بِالصَّبْرِ

103.001By (the Token of) Time (through the ages),
103.002 Verily Man is in loss,
103.003 Except such as have Faith, and do righteous deeds, and (join together) in the mutual teaching of Truth, and of Patience and Constancy.

This sura has had a prodound impact on my thinking and my behavior. What really grabs the attention is how it starts i.e Allah Tallah swears upon all times from the begining to present and clearly states that all mankind is in loss with the exception of those who perform/maintain the qualities described in the sura. May Allah give us all the strength to mold our behavior according to this sura. ameen

"And among His Signs is this, that He created for you mates from among yourselves, that ye may dwell in tranquillity with them, and He has put love and mercy between your (hearts): verily in that are Signs for those who reflect" (30:21)

AQ

33:36 "It is not fitting for a Believer, man or woman, when a matter has been decided by ALLAH:swt: and His Messenger:saw: to have any option about their decision: if any one disobeys ALLAH:swt: and His Messenger:saw:, he is indeed on a clearly wrong Path".

ahmadjee

Too many to count.

There is one about the true righteous not among those who consider turning their face to east or west as part of it, another one is about people to call Him for help as He is near, very comforting. Then there is a verse about His blessing and our denial but the best are the enormous amount of prayers taught to us, especially those of the earlier prophets.

Rabana hublana min azwajayna ...
'Oh our Allah, grant us of our wives and children the delight of our eyes, and make us a model for the righteous.' I believe it is from surah Al-Furqan.

AQ

41 : 44: "Had We sent this as a Quran (in a 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?" Say: "It is a guide and a healing to those who believe; and for those who believe not there is a deafness in their ears and it is blindness in their (eyes); they are (as it were) being called from a place far distant!."

"But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings as eagles; They shall run, and not be weary; and They shall walk, and not faint." [Isaiah 40:31]

The Bible speaks...the Koran regurgitates...

TheNewWannaBe

someone please post that one about "Taqwaa". I dont know where I cant find it. Just heard it in the air.

&Passionate

so true and so sad.

AQ

2:143 Thus, have We made of you an Ummat justly balanced, that ye might be witnesses over the nations, and the Messenger a witness over yourselves; and We appointed the Qibla to which thou wast used, only to test those who followed the Messenger from those who would turn on their heels (From the Faith). Indeed it was (A change) momentous, except to those guided by Allah. And never would Allah Make your faith of no effect. For Allah is to all people Most surely full of kindness, Most Merciful.

AQ

47:17 But to those who receive Guidance, He increases the (light of) Guidance, and bestows on them their Piety and Restraint (from evil).

AQ

2:164 Behold! in the creation of the heavens and the earth; in the alternation of the night and the day; in the sailing of the ships through the ocean for the profit of mankind; in the rain which Allah Sends down from the skies, and the life which He gives therewith to an earth that is dead; in the beasts of all kinds that He scatters through the earth; in the change of the winds, and the clouds which they Trail like their slaves between the sky and the earth;- (Here) indeed are Signs for a people that are wise.

TheNewWannaBe

no, it's not this one. id try to find it.

AQ

2:177 It is not (the only) righteousness that ye turn your faces Towards east or West; but it is righteousness- to believe in Allah and the Last Day, and the Angels, and the Book, and the Messengers; to spend of your substance, out of love for Him, for your kin, for orphans, for the needy, for the wayfarer, for those who ask, and for the ransom of slaves; to be steadfast in prayer, and practice regular charity; to fulfil the contracts which ye have made; and to be firm and patient, in pain (or suffering) and adversity, and throughout all periods of panic. Such are the people of truth, the Allah.fearing.

^ Thanks for sharing but nopes, that's not it. I'll try to find out *sigh*

This is my favourite one about 'taqwa':

3:102 - Ya ayyuha allatheena amanoo ittaqoo Allaha haqqa tuqatihi wala tamootunna illa waantum muslimoon
O ye who believe! fear Allah as He should be feared, and die not except in a state of Islam.
