By the command of Allah, the Messenger of Allaah said to believers of a god.

الٓرٰ‌ ࣞ  كِتٰبٌ اُحۡكِمَتۡ اٰيٰـتُهٗ ثُمَّ فُصِّلَتۡ مِنۡ لَّدُنۡ حَكِيۡمٍ خَبِيۡرٍۙ‏ (۱)  اَلَّا تَعۡبُدُوۡۤا اِلَّا اللّٰهَ‌ ؕ اِنَّنِىۡ لَـكُمۡ مِّنۡهُ نَذِيۡرٌ وَّبَشِيۡرٌ ۙ‏ (۲)  وَّاَنِ اسۡتَغۡفِرُوۡا رَبَّكُمۡ ثُمَّ تُوۡبُوۡۤا اِلَيۡهِ يُمَتِّعۡكُمۡ مَّتَاعًا حَسَنًا اِلٰٓى اَجَلٍ مُّسَمًّى وَ يُؤۡتِ كُلَّ ذِىۡ فَضۡلٍ فَضۡلَهٗ ‌ؕ وَاِنۡ تَوَلَّوۡا فَاِنِّىۡۤ اَخَافُ عَلَيۡكُمۡ عَذَابَ يَوۡمٍ كَبِيۡرٍ‏ ﴿۳﴾۔

[Q-11:1-3]

             Alif, Lam, Ra. [This is] a Book whose verses are perfected and then presented in detail from [one who is] Wise and Acquainted. (Saying) worship none but Allah. Verily, I (Muhammad ﷺ) am unto you from Him a warner and a bringer of glad tidings. 2.And [saying], “Seek forgiveness of your Lord and repent to Him, [and] He will let you enjoy a good provision for a specified term and give every doer of favor his favor. But if you turn away, then indeed, I fear for you the punishment of a great Day.”1-3”

قُلۡ اِنَّمَاۤ اُمِرۡتُ اَنۡ اَعۡبُدَ اللّٰهَ وَلَاۤ اُشۡرِكَ بِهٖؕ اِلَيۡهِ اَدۡعُوۡا وَاِلَيۡهِ مَاٰبِ‏ ﴿۳۶﴾۔

[Q-13:36]

     Say [O Nabi] “I have only been commanded to worship Allah and not associate [anything] with Him. To Him I invite, and to Him is my return.” (36).

 يٰۤـاَيُّهَا الَّذِيۡنَ اٰمَنُوا اتَّقُوا اللّٰهَ وَقُوۡلُوۡا قَوۡلًا سَدِيۡدًا ۙ‏ ﴿۷۰﴾  يُّصۡلِحۡ لَـكُمۡ اَعۡمَالَـكُمۡ وَيَغۡفِرۡ لَـكُمۡ ذُنُوۡبَكُمۡ ؕ وَمَنۡ يُّطِعِ اللّٰهَ وَرَسُوۡلَهٗ فَقَدۡ فَازَ فَوۡزًا عَظِيۡمًا‏ ﴿۷۱﴾۔

[Q-33:70-71]

            O you who have believed, fear Allah and speak words of appropriate justice. (70) He will [then] amend for you your deeds and forgive you your sins. And whoever obeys Allah and His Messenger has certainly attained a great attainment. (71)

—————————————–

The life of the Prophets ﷺ is the best example according to the Quran.

لَقَدۡ كَانَ لَكُمۡ فِىۡ رَسُوۡلِ اللّٰهِ اُسۡوَةٌ حَسَنَةٌ لِّمَنۡ كَانَ يَرۡجُوا اللّٰهَ وَالۡيَوۡمَ الۡاٰخِرَ وَذَكَرَ اللّٰهَ كَثِيۡرًا ؕ‏ ﴿۲۱﴾۔

[Q-33:21]

             There has certainly been for you in the Messenger of Allah an excellent pattern for anyone whose hope is in Allah and the Last Day and [who] remembers Allah often. (21)

———————————————–

 Allah testifies to Muhammad ﷺ as the Messenger of Allah.

 مَاۤ اَصَابَكَ مِنۡ حَسَنَةٍ فَمِنَ اللّٰهِ‌ؗ وَمَاۤ اَصَابَكَ مِنۡ سَيِّئَةٍ فَمِنۡ نَّـفۡسِكَ‌ ؕ وَاَرۡسَلۡنٰكَ لِلنَّاسِ رَسُوۡلًا‌ ؕ وَكَفٰى بِاللّٰهِ شَهِيۡدًا‏ ﴿۷۹﴾ مَنۡ يُّطِعِ الرَّسُوۡلَ فَقَدۡ اَطَاعَ اللّٰهَ ‌ۚ وَمَنۡ تَوَلّٰى فَمَاۤ اَرۡسَلۡنٰكَ عَلَيۡهِمۡ حَفِيۡظًا ؕ‏ ﴿۸۰﴾۔

[Q-04:79-80]

              Whatever of good reaches you, is from Allah, but whatever of evil befalls you, is from yourself. And We have sent you (O Muhammad ﷺ) as a Messenger to mankind, and Allah is Sufficient as a Witness. 79. He who obeys the Messenger (Muhammad ﷺ), has indeed obeyed Allah, but he who turns away, then we have not sent you (O Muhammad ﷺ) as a watcher over them. 80.

——————————————

Obey Allah and His Messenger.

وَاَطِيۡعُوا اللّٰهَ وَاَطِيۡعُوا الرَّسُوۡلَ وَاحۡذَرُوۡا‌ ۚ فَاِنۡ تَوَلَّيۡتُمۡ فَاعۡلَمُوۡۤا اَنَّمَا عَلٰى رَسُوۡلِنَا الۡبَلٰغُ الۡمُبِيۡنُ‏ ﴿۹۲﴾۔

[Q-05:92]

             And obey Allah and the Messenger (Muhammad ﷺ), and beware (of even coming near to drinking or gambling or Al-Ansab, or Al-Azlam, etc.) and fear Allah. Then if you turn away, you should know that it is Our Messenger’s duty to convey (the Message) in the clearest way. 92. 

قُلۡ اَطِيۡعُوا اللّٰهَ وَاَطِيۡعُوا الرَّسُوۡلَ‌ۚ فَاِنۡ تَوَلَّوۡا فَاِنَّمَا عَلَيۡهِ مَا حُمِّلَ وَعَلَيۡكُمۡ مَّا حُمِّلۡتُمۡ‌ؕ وَاِنۡ تُطِيۡعُوۡهُ تَهۡتَدُوۡا‌ؕ وَمَا عَلَى الرَّسُوۡلِ اِلَّا الۡبَلٰغُ الۡمُبِيۡنُ‏ ﴿۵۴﴾۔

[Q-24:54]

 Say, “Obey Allah and obey the Messenger; but if you turn away – then upon him is only that [duty] with which he has been charged, and upon you is that with which you have been charged. And if you obey him, you will be [rightly] guided. And there is not upon the Messenger except the [responsibility for] clear notification.”54.

——————————————–

Commanded to the Messenger ﷺ to obey the Quran.

يٰۤـاَيُّهَا النَّبِىُّ اتَّقِ اللّٰهَ وَلَا تُطِعِ الۡكٰفِرِيۡنَ وَالۡمُنٰفِقِيۡنَ‌ ؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ كَانَ عَلِيۡمًا حَكِيۡمًا ۙ‏ ﴿۱﴾  وَّاتَّبِعۡ مَا يُوۡحٰٓى اِلَيۡكَ مِنۡ رَّبِّكَ‌ ؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ كَانَ بِمَا تَعۡمَلُوۡنَ خَبِيۡرًا ۙ‏ ﴿۲﴾۔

[Q-33:1-2]

            O Prophet, fear Allah and do not obey the disbelievers and the hypocrites. Indeed, Allah is ever Knowing and Wise.(1) And follow that which is inspired in you from your Lord. Verily, Allah is Well-Acquainted with what you do. 2. 

قُلْ لَّاۤ اَقُوۡلُ لَـكُمۡ عِنۡدِىۡ خَزَآٮِٕنُ اللّٰهِ وَلَاۤ اَعۡلَمُ الۡغَيۡبَ وَلَاۤ اَقُوۡلُ لَـكُمۡ اِنِّىۡ مَلَكٌ ۚ اِنۡ اَتَّبِعُ اِلَّا مَا يُوۡحٰٓى اِلَىَّ ؕ  قُلۡ هَلۡ يَسۡتَوِى الۡاَعۡمٰى وَالۡبَصِيۡرُ ؕ  اَفَلَا تَتَفَكَّرُوۡنَ ﴿۵۰﴾۔

[Q-06:50]

            Say (O Muhammad ﷺ): “I don’t tell you that with me are the treasures of Allah, nor (that) I know the unseen; nor I tell you that I am an angel. I but follow what is revealed to me by inspiration.” Say: “Are the blind and the one who sees equal? will you not then take thought?” 50. 

اِتَّبِعۡ مَاۤ اُوۡحِىَ اِلَيۡكَ مِنۡ رَّبِّكَ‌‌ۚ لَاۤ اِلٰهَ اِلَّا هُوَ‌ۚ وَاَعۡرِضۡ عَنِ الۡمُشۡرِكِيۡنَ‏ ﴿۱۰۶﴾  وَلَوۡ شَآءَ اللّٰهُ مَاۤ اَشۡرَكُوۡا ‌ؕ وَمَا جَعَلۡنٰكَ عَلَيۡهِمۡ حَفِيۡظًا‌ ۚ وَمَاۤ اَنۡتَ عَلَيۡهِمۡ بِوَكِيۡلٍ‏ ﴿۱۰۷﴾۔

[Q-06:106-107]

              Follow, [O Muhammad], what has been revealed to you from your Lord – there is no deity except Him – and turn away from those who associate others with Allah.106” But if Allah had willed, they would not have associated. And We have not appointed you over them as a guardian, nor are you a manager over them.”107.

——————————————–

Commanded mankind to obey the Quran and the Prophetﷺ.

يٰۤـاَيُّهَا النَّاسُ قَدۡ جَآءَكُمُ الرَّسُوۡلُ بِالۡحَـقِّ مِنۡ رَّبِّكُمۡ فَاٰمِنُوۡا خَيۡرًا لَّـكُمۡ ؕ ﴿۱۷۰﴾۔

[Q-04:170]

            O mankind! Verily, there has come to you the Messenger (Muhammad ﷺ) with the truth from your Lord, so believe in him, it is better for you. 170.

قَدۡ جَآءَكُمۡ بَصَآٮِٕرُ مِنۡ رَّبِّكُمۡ  ۚ  فَمَنۡ اَبۡصَرَ فَلِنَفۡسِهٖ‌ ۚ وَمَنۡ عَمِىَ فَعَلَيۡهَا‌ ؕ وَمَاۤ اَنَا عَلَيۡكُمۡ بِحَفِيۡظٍ‏ ﴿۱۰۴﴾۔

[Q-06:104)

            Verily, proofs have come to you from your Lord, so whosoever sees, will do so for (the good of) his ownself, and whosoever blinds himself, will do so to his own harm, and I (Muhammad ﷺ) am not a watcher over you. 104. 

 كَمَآ اَرۡسَلۡنَا فِيۡکُمۡ رَسُوۡلًا مِّنۡکُمۡ يَتۡلُوۡا عَلَيۡكُمۡ اٰيٰتِنَا وَيُزَكِّيۡکُمۡ وَيُعَلِّمُکُمُ الۡكِتٰبَ وَالۡحِکۡمَةَ وَيُعَلِّمُكُمۡ مَّا لَمۡ تَكُوۡنُوۡا تَعۡلَمُوۡنَ ؕ‌ۛ‏ ﴿۱۵۱﴾۔

[Q-02:151].

             Similarly (to complete My Blessings on you) We have sent among you a Messenger (Muhammad ﷺ) of your own, reciting to you Our Verses (the Qur’an) and sanctifying you, and teaching you the Book (the Qur’an) and the Hikmah (i.e. Sunnah, Islamic laws and Fiqh – jurisprudence), and teaching you that which you used not to know.151.

   يٰۤاَيُّهَا الَّذِيۡنَ اٰمَنُوۡۤا اٰمِنُوۡا بِاللّٰهِ وَرَسُوۡلِهٖ وَالۡكِتٰبِ الَّذِىۡ نَزَّلَ عَلٰى رَسُوۡلِهٖ وَالۡكِتٰبِ الَّذِىۡۤ اَنۡزَلَ مِنۡ قَبۡلُ‌ؕ وَمَنۡ يَّكۡفُرۡ بِاللّٰهِ وَمَلٰٓٮِٕكَتِهٖ وَكُتُبِهٖ وَرُسُلِهٖ وَالۡيَوۡمِ الۡاٰخِرِ فَقَدۡ ضَلَّ ضَلٰلًاۢ بَعِيۡدًا‏ ﴿۱۳۶﴾۔

[Q-04:136].

             O you who believe! Believe in Allah, and His Messenger (Muhammad ﷺ), and the Book (the Qur’an) which He has sent down to His Messenger, and the Scripture which He sent down to those before (him), and whosoever disbelieves in Allah, His Angels, His Books, His Messengers, and the Last Day, then indeed he has strayed far away. 136. 

اِتَّبِعُوۡا مَاۤ اُنۡزِلَ اِلَيۡكُمۡ مِّنۡ رَّبِّكُمۡ وَلَا تَتَّبِعُوۡا مِنۡ دُوۡنِهٖۤ اَوۡلِيَآءَ‌ ؕ قَلِيۡلًا مَّا تَذَكَّرُوۡنَ ﴿۳﴾۔

[Q-07:03]

              Follow, [O mankind], what has been revealed to you from your Lord and do not follow other than Him any allies. Little do you remember.3. 

وَاَطِيۡعُوا اللّٰهَ وَالرَّسُوۡلَ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تُرۡحَمُوۡنَ‌ۚ‏ ﴿۱۳۲﴾۔

[Q-03:132].

             And obey Allah and the Messenger (Muhammad ﷺ) that you may obtain mercy. 132. 

يٰبَنِىۡۤ اٰدَمَ اِمَّا يَاۡتِيَنَّكُمۡ رُسُلٌ مِّنۡكُمۡ يَقُصُّوۡنَ عَلَيۡكُمۡ اٰيٰتِىۡ‌ۙ فَمَنِ اتَّقٰى وَاَصۡلَحَ فَلَا خَوۡفٌ عَلَيۡهِمۡ وَلَا هُمۡ يَحۡزَنُوۡنَ‏ ﴿۳۵﴾۔

[Q-07:35]

               O Children of Adam! If there come to you Messengers from amongst you, reciting to you, My Verses, then whosoever becomes pious and righteous, on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve. 35. 

يٰۤـاَيُّهَا الَّذِيۡنَ اٰمَنُوۡۤا اَطِيۡعُوا اللّٰهَ وَرَسُوۡلَهٗ وَلَا تَوَلَّوۡا عَنۡهُ وَاَنۡـتُمۡ تَسۡمَعُوۡنَ‌ ۖ‌ ۚ‏ ﴿۲۰﴾۔  وَلَا تَكُوۡنُوۡا كَالَّذِيۡنَ قَالُوۡا سَمِعۡنَا وَهُمۡ لَا يَسۡمَعُوۡنَ‌‏ ﴿۲۱﴾۔ اِنَّ شَرَّ الدَّوَآبِّ عِنۡدَ اللّٰهِ الصُّمُّ الۡبُكۡمُ الَّذِيۡنَ لَا يَعۡقِلُوۡنَ‏ ﴿۲۲﴾۔

[Q-8:20-22]

               O you who believe! Obey Allah and His Messenger, and turn not away from him (i.e. Messenger Muhammad ﷺ) while you are hearing. 20. And be not like those who say: “We have heard,” but they hear not. 21. Verily! The worst of (moving) living creatures with Allah are the deaf and the dumb, those who understand not (i.e. the disbelievers). 22. 

وَيَقُوۡلُوۡنَ اٰمَنَّا بِاللّٰهِ وَبِالرَّسُوۡلِ وَاَطَعۡنَا ثُمَّ يَتَوَلّٰى فَرِيۡقٌ مِّنۡهُمۡ مِّنۡۢ بَعۡدِ ذٰلِكَ‌ؕ وَمَاۤ اُولٰٓٮِٕكَ بِالۡمُؤۡمِنِيۡنَ‏ ﴿۴۷﴾۔

[Q-24:47]

          But the hypocrites say, “We have believed in Allah and in the Messenger, and we obey”; then a party of them turns away after that. And those are not believers.47.

اِنَّمَا كَانَ قَوۡلَ الۡمُؤۡمِنِيۡنَ اِذَا دُعُوۡۤا اِلَى اللّٰهِ وَرَسُوۡلِهٖ لِيَحۡكُمَ بَيۡنَهُمۡ اَنۡ يَّقُوۡلُوۡا سَمِعۡنَا وَاَطَعۡنَا‌ؕ وَاُولٰٓٮِٕكَ هُمُ الۡمُفۡلِحُوۡنَ‏ ﴿۵۱﴾  وَمَنۡ يُّطِعِ اللّٰهَ وَرَسُوۡلَهٗ وَيَخۡشَ اللّٰهَ وَيَتَّقۡهِ فَاُولٰٓٮِٕكَ هُمُ الۡفَآٮِٕزُوۡنَ‏ ﴿۵۲﴾۔

[Q-24:51-52]

            The only statement of the [true] believers when they are called to Allah and His Messenger to judge between them is that they say, “We hear and we obey.” And those are the successful.51. And whoever obeys Allah and His Messenger and fears Allah and is conscious of Him – it is those who are the attainers.52.

وَاَقِيۡمُوا الصَّلٰوةَ وَ اٰ تُوا الزَّكٰوةَ وَاَطِيۡـعُوا الرَّسُوۡلَ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تُرۡحَمُوۡنَ‏ ﴿۵۶﴾۔

[Q-24:56]

          And establish prayer and give zakah and obey the Messenger – that you may receive mercy. 56.

——————————————

Allah will ask both the people and the Prophets about the delivery of the message of tawheed.

فَلَنَسۡــَٔــلَنَّ الَّذِيۡنَ اُرۡسِلَ اِلَيۡهِمۡ وَلَـنَسۡـَٔـــلَنَّ الۡمُرۡسَلِيۡنَ ۙ‏ ﴿۶﴾ فَلَنَقُصَّنَّ عَلَيۡهِمۡ بِعِلۡمٍ وَّمَا كُنَّا غَآٮِٕبِيۡنَ‏ ﴿۷﴾۔

[Q-07:6-7]

            Then surely, We shall question those (people) to whom it (the Book) was sent and verily, We shall question the Messengers. 6. Then surely, We shall narrate unto them (their whole story) with knowledge, and indeed We were not absent. 7. 

وَاِذۡ اَخَذۡنَا مِنَ النَّبِيّٖنَ مِيۡثَاقَهُمۡ وَمِنۡكَ وَمِنۡ نُّوۡحٍ وَّاِبۡرٰهِيۡمَ وَمُوۡسٰى وَعِيۡسَى ابۡنِ مَرۡيَمَ ࣕ وَاَخَذۡنَا مِنۡهُمۡ مِّيۡثاقًا غَلِيۡظًا ۙ‏ ﴿۷﴾۔لِّيَسۡئَلَ الصّٰدِقِيۡنَ عَنۡ صِدۡقِهِمۡ‌ۚ وَاَعَدَّ لِلۡكٰفِرِيۡنَ عَذَابًا اَ لِيۡمًا‏ ﴿۸﴾۔

[Q-33:7-8]

            And (remember) when We took from the Prophets their covenant, and from you (O Muhammad ﷺ), and from Nuh (Noah), Ibrahim (Abraham), Musa (Moses), and ‘Iesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary). We took from them a strong covenant. 7. That He may ask the truthfuls (Allah’s Messengers and His Prophets) about their truth (i.e. the conveyance of Allah’s Message that which they were charged with). And He has prepared for the disbelievers a painful torment (Hell-fire). 8. 

           That is, whether what he has done on them is conveyed to the people with truth.

اِنَّاۤ اَرۡسَلۡنٰكَ شَاهِدًا وَّمُبَشِّرًا وَّنَذِيۡرًا (۸) لِّـتُؤۡمِنُوۡا بِاللّٰهِ وَ رَسُوۡلِهٖ وَتُعَزِّرُوۡهُ وَتُوَقِّرُوۡهُ ؕ وَتُسَبِّحُوۡهُ بُكۡرَةً وَّاَصِيۡلًا‏ ﴿۹﴾۔

[Q-48:8-9]

             Verily, We have sent you (O Muhammad ﷺ) as a witness, as a bearer of glad tidings, and as a warner. 8”. That you [people] may believe in Allah and His Messenger and honor him and respect the Prophet and exalt Allah morning and afternoon.9”

———————————————-

Our justice system. It must be according to the rules of Allah and the Messenger.     

يٰۤـاَيُّهَا الَّذِيۡنَ اٰمَنُوۡۤا اَطِيۡـعُوا اللّٰهَ وَاَطِيۡـعُوا الرَّسُوۡلَ وَاُولِى الۡاَمۡرِ مِنۡكُمۡ‌ۚ فَاِنۡ تَنَازَعۡتُمۡ فِىۡ شَىۡءٍ فَرُدُّوۡهُ اِلَى اللّٰهِ وَالرَّسُوۡلِ اِنۡ كُنۡـتُمۡ تُؤۡمِنُوۡنَ بِاللّٰهِ وَالۡيَـوۡمِ الۡاٰخِرِ‌ ؕ ذٰ لِكَ خَيۡرٌ وَّاَحۡسَنُ تَاۡوِيۡلًا ﴿۵۹﴾۔

[Q-04:59]

            O you who believe! Obey Allah and obey the Messenger (Muhammad ﷺ), and those of you (Muslims) who are in authority. (And) if you differ in anything amongst yourselves, refer it to Allah and His Messenger (ﷺ), if you believe in Allah and in the Last Day. That is better and more suitable for final determination. 59. 

———————————————

The commands of Allah and the Messenger are obligatory on every believing man and woman.

وَمَا كَانَ لِمُؤۡمِنٍ وَّلَا مُؤۡمِنَةٍ اِذَا قَضَى اللّٰهُ وَرَسُوۡلُهٗۤ اَمۡرًا اَنۡ يَّكُوۡنَ لَهُمُ الۡخِيَرَةُ مِنۡ اَمۡرِهِمۡ ؕ وَمَنۡ يَّعۡصِ اللّٰهَ وَرَسُوۡلَهٗ فَقَدۡ ضَلَّ ضَلٰلًا مُّبِيۡنًا‏ ﴿۳۶﴾۔

[Q-33:36]

             It is not for a believer, man or woman, when Allah and His Messenger have decreed a matter that they should have any option in their decision. And whoever disobeys Allah and His Messenger, he has indeed strayed in a plain error. 36. 

قُلۡ اِنۡ كُنۡتُمۡ تُحِبُّوۡنَ اللّٰهَ فَاتَّبِعُوۡنِىۡ يُحۡبِبۡكُمُ اللّٰهُ وَيَغۡفِرۡ لَـكُمۡ ذُنُوۡبَكُمۡؕ‌ وَاللّٰهُ غَفُوۡرٌ رَّحِيۡمٌ‏ ﴿۳۱﴾  قُلۡ اَطِيۡعُوا اللّٰهَ وَالرَّسُوۡلَ‌‌ ۚ  فَاِنۡ تَوَلَّوۡا فَاِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَا يُحِبُّ الۡكٰفِرِيۡنَ‏ ﴿۳۲﴾۔

[Q-03:31-32]

             Say, [O Muhammad], “If you should love Allah , then follow me, [so] Allah will love you and forgive you your sins. And Allah is Forgiving and Merciful.”31. Say, “Obey Allah and the Messenger.” But if they turn away – then indeed, Allah does not like the disbelievers.32.

The Messenger of Allaah (Muhammad ﷺ) is the chief of all the prophets.

اَ لَّذِيۡنَ يَتَّبِعُوۡنَ الرَّسُوۡلَ النَّبِىَّ الۡاُمِّىَّ الَّذِىۡ يَجِدُوۡنَهٗ مَكۡتُوۡبًا عِنۡدَهُمۡ فِى التَّوۡرٰٮةِ وَالۡاِنۡجِيۡلِ ؗ  يَاۡمُرُهُمۡ بِالۡمَعۡرُوۡفِ وَيَنۡهٰٮهُمۡ عَنِ الۡمُنۡكَرِ وَيُحِلُّ لَهُمُ الطَّيِّبٰتِ وَيُحَرِّمُ عَلَيۡهِمُ الۡخَبٰۤٮِٕثَ وَيَضَعُ عَنۡهُمۡ اِصۡرَهُمۡ وَالۡاَغۡلٰلَ الَّتِىۡ كَانَتۡ عَلَيۡهِمۡ‌ ؕ فَالَّذِيۡنَ اٰمَنُوۡا بِهٖ وَعَزَّرُوۡهُ وَنَصَرُوۡهُ وَ اتَّبَـعُوا النُّوۡرَ الَّذِىۡۤ اُنۡزِلَ مَعَهٗ ۤ‌ ۙ اُولٰۤٮِٕكَ هُمُ الۡمُفۡلِحُوۡنَ‏ ﴿۱۵۷﴾۔

[Q-07:157]

               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. 157.

قُلۡ يٰۤاَيُّهَا النَّاسُ اِنِّىۡ رَسُوۡلُ اللّٰهِ اِلَيۡكُمۡ جَمِيۡعَاْ ۨالَّذِىۡ لَهٗ مُلۡكُ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالۡاَرۡضِ‌ۚ لَاۤ اِلٰهَ اِلَّا هُوَ يُحۡىٖ وَيُمِيۡتُ ࣕ‌  فَاٰمِنُوۡا بِاللّٰهِ وَرَسُوۡلِهِ النَّبِىِّ الۡاُمِّىِّ الَّذِىۡ يُؤۡمِنُ بِاللّٰهِ وَكَلِمٰتِهٖ وَاتَّبِعُوۡهُ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تَهۡتَدُوۡنَ‏ ﴿۱۵۸﴾۔

[Q-07:158]

            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.158. 

——————————————

Those who obey Allah and the Messenger.

وَمَنۡ يُّطِعِ اللّٰهَ وَالرَّسُوۡلَ فَاُولٰٓٮِٕكَ مَعَ الَّذِيۡنَ اَنۡعَمَ اللّٰهُ عَلَيۡهِمۡ مِّنَ النَّبِيّٖنَ وَالصِّدِّيۡقِيۡنَ وَالشُّهَدَآءِ وَالصّٰلِحِيۡنَ‌ ۚ وَحَسُنَ اُولٰٓٮِٕكَ   رَفِيۡقًا ؕ‏ ﴿۶۹﴾  ذٰ لِكَ الۡـفَضۡلُ مِنَ اللّٰهِ‌ ؕ وَكَفٰى بِاللّٰهِ عَلِيۡمًا‏ ﴿۷۰﴾۔

[Q-04:69-70]

            And whoso obeys Allah and the Messenger (Muhammad ﷺ), then they will be in the company of those on whom Allah has bestowed His Grace, of the Prophets, the Siddiqun (those followers of the Prophets who were first and foremost to believe in them, like Abu Bakr As-Siddiq ), the martyrs, and the righteous. And how excellent these companions are! 69. Such is the Bounty from Allah, and Allah is Sufficient as All-Knower. 70. 

وَالَّذِيۡنَ اٰمَنُوۡا بِاللّٰهِ وَرُسُلِهٖۤ اُولٰٓٮِٕكَ هُمُ الصِّدِّيۡقُوۡنَ ۚ  وَالشُّهَدَآءُ  عِنۡدَ رَبِّهِمۡؕ لَهُمۡ اَجۡرُهُمۡ وَنُوۡرُهُمۡ‌ؕ وَ الَّذِيۡنَ كَفَرُوۡا وَكَذَّبُوۡا بِاٰيٰتِنَاۤ اُولٰٓٮِٕكَ اَصۡحٰبُ الۡجَحِيۡمِ‏ ﴿۱۹﴾۔

[Q-57:19]

             And those who have believed in Allah and His messengers – those are [in the ranks of] the supporters of truth and the martyrs, with their Lord. For them is their reward and their light. But those who have disbelieved and denied Our verses – those are the companions of Hellfire. 19.

Those who oppose Allah and the Messenger.

وَمَنۡ يُّشَاقِقِ الرَّسُوۡلَ مِنۡۢ بَعۡدِ مَا تَبَيَّنَ لَـهُ الۡهُدٰى وَ يَـتَّبِعۡ غَيۡرَ سَبِيۡلِ الۡمُؤۡمِنِيۡنَ نُوَلِّهٖ مَا تَوَلّٰى وَنُصۡلِهٖ جَهَـنَّمَ‌ ؕ وَسَآءَتۡ مَصِيۡرًا‏ ﴿۱۱۵﴾۔  

[Q-04:115]

            And whoever contradicts and opposes the Messenger (Muhammad ﷺ) after the right path has been shown clearly to him, and follows other than the believers’ way. We shall keep him in the path he has chosen, and burn him in Hell – what an evil destination.115.

اِنَّ الَّذِيۡنَ يُحَآدُّوۡنَ اللّٰهَ وَرَسُوۡلَهٗ كُبِتُوۡا كَمَا كُبِتَ الَّذِيۡنَ مِنۡ قَبۡلِهِمۡ‌ وَقَدۡ اَنۡزَلۡنَاۤ اٰيٰتٍۢ بَيِّنٰتٍ‌ ؕ وَ لِلۡكٰفِرِيۡنَ عَذَابٌ مُّهِيۡنٌ‌ ۚ‏ ﴿۵﴾۔

[Q-58:5]

             Verily, those who oppose Allah and His Messenger (Muhammad ﷺ) will be disgraced, as those before them (among the past nation), were disgraced. And We have sent down clear Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.). And for the disbelievers is a disgracing torment. 5.

Equal command to you ﷺ and all prophets.

 مَا يُقَالُ لَـكَ اِلَّا مَا قَدۡ قِيۡلَ لِلرُّسُلِ مِنۡ قَبۡلِكَ ‌ؕ اِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَذُوۡ مَغۡفِرَةٍ وَّذُوۡ عِقَابٍ اَ لِيۡمٍ‏ ﴿۴۳﴾۔

[Q-41:43]

            Nothing is said to you, [O Muhammad], except what was already said to the messengers before you. Indeed, your Lord is a possessor of forgiveness and a possessor of painful penalty.43.

وَلِلّٰهِ مَا فِى السَّمٰوٰتِ وَمَا فِى الۡاَرۡضِ ‌ؕ وَلَـقَدۡ وَصَّيۡنَا الَّذِيۡنَ اُوۡتُوا الۡكِتٰبَ مِنۡ قَبۡلِكُمۡ وَاِيَّاكُمۡ اَنِ اتَّقُوا اللّٰهَ‌ ؕ وَاِنۡ تَكۡفُرُوۡا فَاِنَّ لِلّٰهِ مَا فِى السَّمٰوٰتِ وَمَا فِى الۡاَرۡضِ‌ؕ وَكَانَ اللّٰهُ غَنِيًّا حَمِيۡدًا‏ ﴿۱۳۱﴾۔

[Q-04:131]

             And to Allah belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. And We have instructed those who were given the Scripture before you and yourselves to fear Allah. But if you disbelieve – then to Allah belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. And ever is Allah Free of need and Praiseworthy.131.

The Quran is the right path of Islam. 

وَالَّذِىۡ جَآءَ بِالصِّدۡقِ وَصَدَّقَ بِهٖۤ‌ اُولٰٓٮِٕكَ هُمُ الۡمُتَّقُوۡنَ‏ ﴿۳۳﴾  لَهُمۡ مَّا يَشَآءُوۡنَ عِنۡدَ رَبِّهِمۡ‌ ؕ ذٰ لِكَ جَزٰٓؤُ الۡمُحۡسِنِيۡنَ ۚ‏ ﴿۳۴﴾۔

[Q-39:33-34]

              And the one who has brought the truth (Quran) and [they who] believed in it – those are the righteous. 33. They will have whatever they desire with their Lord. That is the reward of the doers of good. 34.

وَاَطِيۡعُوا اللّٰهَ وَاَطِيۡعُوا الرَّسُوۡلَ‌ۚ فَاِنۡ تَوَلَّيۡتُمۡ فَاِنَّمَا عَلٰى رَسُوۡلِنَا الۡبَلٰغُ الۡمُبِيۡنُ‏ ﴿۱۲﴾  اَللّٰهُ لَاۤ اِلٰهَ اِلَّا هُوَ‌ؕ وَعَلَى اللّٰهِ فَلۡيَتَوَكَّلِ الۡمُؤۡمِنُوۡنَ‏ ﴿۱۳﴾۔

[Q-64:12-13]

            Obey Allah, and obey the Messenger (Muhammad ﷺ), but if you turn away, then the duty of Our Messenger is only to convey (the Message) clearly.12. Allah! La ilaha illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He), and in Allah (Alone), therefore, let the believers put their trust. 13. 

يٰۤاَيُّهَا الَّذِيۡنَ اٰمَنُوۡۤا اَطِيۡعُوا اللّٰهَ وَاَطِيۡعُوا الرَّسُوۡلَ وَلَا تُبۡطِلُوۡۤا اَعۡمَالَـكُمۡ‏ ﴿۳۳﴾۔

[Q-47:33]

            O you who believe! Obey Allah, and obey the Messenger (Muhammad ﷺ) and render not vain your deeds.33”

اِنَّ هٰذِهٖ تَذۡكِرَةٌ ‌ ۚ فَمَنۡ شَآءَ اتَّخَذَ اِلٰى رَبِّهٖ سَبِيۡلًا ﴿۱۹﴾۔

[Q-73:19].

            Indeed, this is a reminder, so whoever wills may take to his Lord a way. (19)

وَالَّذِيۡنَ اٰمَنُوۡا وَعَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِ وَاٰمَنُوۡا بِمَا نُزِّلَ عَلٰى مُحَمَّدٍ وَّهُوَ الۡحَقُّ مِنۡ رَّبِّهِمۡ‌ۙ كَفَّرَ عَنۡهُمۡ سَيِّاٰتِهِمۡ وَاَصۡلَحَ بَالَهُمۡ‏ ﴿۲﴾۔

[Q-47:2]

             But those who believe and do righteous good deeds, and believe in that which is sent down to Muhammad (ﷺ), for it is the truth from their Lord, He will expiate from them their sins, and will make good their state. 2. 

فَاٰمِنُوۡا بِاللّٰهِ وَرَسُوۡلِهٖ وَالنُّوۡرِ الَّذِىۡۤ اَنۡزَلۡنَا‌ؕ وَاللّٰهُ بِمَا تَعۡمَلُوۡنَ خَبِيۡرٌ‏ ﴿۸﴾  يَوۡمَ يَجۡمَعُكُمۡ لِيَوۡمِ الۡجَمۡعِ‌ ذٰ لِكَ يَوۡمُ التَّغَابُنِ‌ ؕ وَمَنۡ يُّؤۡمِنۡۢ بِاللّٰهِ وَيَعۡمَلۡ صَالِحًـا يُّكَفِّرۡ عَنۡهُ سَيِّاٰتِهٖ وَيُدۡخِلۡهُ جَنّٰتٍ تَجۡرِىۡ مِنۡ تَحۡتِهَا الۡاَنۡهٰرُ خٰلِدِيۡنَ فِيۡهَاۤ اَبَدًا‌ ؕ ذٰ لِكَ الۡفَوۡزُ الۡعَظِیْمُ‏ ﴿۹﴾۔

[Q-64:8-9]

              Therefore, believe in Allah and His Messenger (Muhammad ﷺ), and in the Light (this Qur’an) which We have sent down. And Allah is All-Aware of what you do. 8. (And remember) the Day when He will gather you (all) on the Day of Gathering, that will be the Day of mutual loss and gain (i.e. loss for the disbelievers as they will enter the Hell-fire and gain for the believers as they will enter Paradise). And whosoever believes in Allah and performs righteous good deeds, He will remit from him his sins, and will admit him to Gardens under which rivers flow (Paradise) to dwell therein forever, that will be the great success. 9. 

  اِنَّاۤ اَنۡزَلۡنَا عَلَيۡكَ الۡكِتٰبَ لِلنَّاسِ بِالۡحَقِّ‌ ۚ فَمَنِ اهۡتَدٰى فَلِنَفۡسِهٖ‌ ۚ وَمَنۡ ضَلَّ فَاِنَّمَا يَضِلُّ عَلَيۡهَا‌ ۚ وَمَاۤ اَنۡتَ عَلَيۡهِمۡ بِوَكِيۡلٍ‏ ﴿۴۱﴾۔

[Q-39:41]

             Verily, We have sent down to you (O Muhammad ﷺ) the Book (this Qur’an) for mankind in truth. So whosoever accepts the guidance, it is only for his ownself, and whosoever goes astray, he goes astray only for his (own) loss. And you (O Muhammad ﷺ) are not a Wakil (trustee or disposer of affairs, or keeper) over them. 41. 

نَحۡنُ اَعۡلَمُ بِمَا يَقُوۡلُوۡنَ‌ وَمَاۤ اَنۡتَ عَلَيۡهِمۡ بِجَـبَّارٍ  ࣞ‌ فَذَكِّرۡ بِالۡقُرۡاٰنِ مَنۡ يَّخَافُ وَعِيۡدِ ﴿۴۵﴾۔

[Q-50:45]

              We know of best what they say; and you (O Muhammad ﷺ) are not a tyrant over them (to force them to Belief). But warn by the Qur’an, him who fears My Threat. 45.

Allah commands the Prophet to defend himself.

قُلۡ سُبۡحَانَ رَبِّىۡ هَلۡ كُنۡتُ اِلَّا بَشَرًا رَّسُوۡلًا‏ ﴿۹۳﴾  وَمَا مَنَعَ النَّاسَ اَنۡ يُّؤۡمِنُوۡۤا اِذۡ جَآءَهُمُ الۡهُدٰٓى اِلَّاۤ اَنۡ قَالُـوۡۤا اَبَعَثَ اللّٰهُ بَشَرًا رَّسُوۡلًا‏ ﴿۹۴﴾  قُلْ لَّوۡ كَانَ فِى الۡاَرۡضِ مَلٰۤٮِٕكَةٌ يَّمۡشُوۡنَ مُطۡمَٮِٕنِّيۡنَ لَـنَزَّلۡنَا عَلَيۡهِمۡ مِّنَ السَّمَآءِ مَلَـكًا رَّسُوۡلًا‏ ﴿۹۵﴾۔  

[Q-17:93-95]

             Say, “Exalted is my Lord! Was I ever but a human messenger?”93. And nothing prevented men from believing when the guidance came to them, except that they said: “Has Allah sent a man as (His) Messenger?” 94. Say: “If there were on the earth, angels walking about in peace and security, We should certainly have sent down for them from the heaven an angel as a Messenger.” 95.

وَاَنۡ اَتۡلُوَا الۡقُرۡاٰنَ‌ۚ فَمَنِ اهۡتَدٰى فَاِنَّمَا يَهۡتَدِىۡ لِنَفۡسِهٖ‌ۚ وَمَنۡ ضَلَّ فَقُلۡ اِنَّمَاۤ اَنَا مِنَ الۡمُنۡذِرِيۡنَ‏ ﴿۹۲﴾۔

[Q-27:92]

            And to recite the Qur’an, so whosoever receives guidance, receives it for the good of his ownself, and whosoever goes astray, say (to him): “I am only one of the warners.” 92. 

فَاِنَّكَ لَا تُسۡمِعُ الۡمَوۡتٰى وَلَا تُسۡمِعُ الصُّمَّ الدُّعَآءَ اِذَا وَلَّوۡا مُدۡبِرِيۡنَ‏ ﴿۵۲﴾  وَمَاۤ اَنۡتَ بِهٰدِ الۡعُمۡىِ عَنۡ ضَلٰلَتِهِمۡ‌ؕ اِنۡ تُسۡمِعُ اِلَّا مَنۡ يُّؤۡمِنُ بِاٰيٰتِنَا فَهُمۡ مُّسۡلِمُوۡنَ‏ ﴿۵۳﴾۔

[Q-30:52-53]

             So indeed, you will not make the dead hear, nor will you make the deaf hear the call when they turn their backs, retreating. (52) And you cannot guide the blind away from their error. You will only make hear those who believe in Our verses so they are Muslims [in submission to Allah]. (53)
