[1]. The companions of the Prophet said: "While we were sitting with the Prophet in the mosque, a man came riding on a camel. He made his camel kneel down in the mosque, tied its foreleg and then said: "Who amongst you is Muhammad?" At that time the Prophet was sitting amongst us leaning on his arm. We replied: "This white man reclining on his arm." The man then addressed him, "O Son of 'Abdul Muttalib."The Prophet said: "I am here to answer your questions." The man said to the Prophet: "I want to ask you something and will be hard in questioning. So do not get angry." The Prophet said, "Ask whatever you want." The man said, "I ask you by your Lord, and the Lord of those who were before you, has Allāh 'God' sent you as a messenger to all the mankind?" The Prophet replied, "By Allāh, yes." The man further said, "I ask you by Allāh, has Allāh ordered you to offer five prayers in a day and night? He replied, "By Allāh, Yes." The man further said, "I ask you by Allāh, has Allāh ordered you to observe fasts during this month of the year (i.e. in Ramadan)?" He replied, "By Allāh, yes." The man further said, "I ask you by Allāh, has Allāh ordered you to take Zakat (obligatory alms) from our rich people and distribute it amongst our poor people?" The Prophet replied, "By Allāh, yes." Thereupon that man said, "I have believed in all that with which you have been sent, and I have been sent by my people as an envoy."
[2]. Muhammad, God's messenger said: "My similitude in comparison with the other prophets before me, is that of a man who has built a house nicely and beautifully, except for a place of one brick in a corner. The people go about it and wonder at its beauty, but say, 'Would that this brick be put in its place'. I am the illuminating lamp that lights the dark and I am the stone that the builders refused. This is really a prophecy referring to Prophet Muhammad mentioned in the Psalm 118: "The stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of the corner," (Psalm 118:22). And Jesus mentioned again in the Gospel. "Jesus said unto them, Did you never read in the Scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner ?" (Matthew 21:42). The Jewish had refused Ishmael and also the Prophet Muhammad as God's last and final messenger, but the day would come when they would have to confess their sad mistake.
[3]. O Allāh, guide me in your truth, and teach me, for you are my only God, my only Savior, and my hope is in you all day long. Keep me from deceitful ways; be gracious to me and teach me the Qur'an and Sunnah. I have chosen Islam, the way of all Prophets, the way of Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus and Muhammad, among others, I have set my heart on your teachings. Give me understanding of the Qur'an and Sunnah, and I will obey your Commandments; I will put them into practice with all my heart. Then I will know the truth of Islam, and this truth will set me free. One of the companions of the Prophet Muhammad reported that the Messenger of God (ﷺ) said to him: "Say: O Allāh, guide me and keep me steadfast on the right path."
The Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, would say, “O Allāh, I ask You for guidance, piety, chastity and self- sufficiency.”
[4]. The appearance of The Antichrist, the descent of Jesus son of Mary, the swift assault by Gog and Magog, the appearance of the beast to admonish the people, and the rising of the sun from the West.
[5]. The Prophet Muhammad, may peace and blessings of Allāh be upon him said: "Whoever says: There is no god but Allāh and disbelieves in what is worshiped other than Allāh, his wealth and blood are forbidden, and his reckoning is with Allāh."
[6]. Another meaning: Would you then, if you held authority in the land, you would disobey (Allāh), spread mischief, and violate the family ties.
[7]. Muhammad, God's Messenger, said: "Three (types of people) will not enter Paradise: (1) the habitual wine (alcohol) drinker, (2) the believer in sorcery (and astrology is among it), and (3) the one who severs the ties of kinship."
[8]. Out of the heart come evil thoughts. The state of our heart matters because evil residing there can overflow into our lives. Both our exterior and interior matter.
One of the most powerful ways to grow in our relationship with Allāh is to read the Qur’an. Allāh (God) reveals Himself to us through the Qur’an that we might know Him well. The Qur’an grant us guidance on how to live in this life and provide comfort when we face times of sorrow. In addition to that, it is the Word of Allāh that protects us from evil. The Word of Allāh offers freedom, healing, and hope.
[9]. One of the well-established facts that is affirmed by the Qur’an is that sins and major sins do not erase all of the good deeds of the believer, and that there is nothing that erases the good deeds of a believer altogether except denial of faith and polytheism i.e., associating partners (equals) with Allāh.
[10]. Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord (Allāh) your God is with you wherever you go.

[12]. All of it, rather, only the alms that are required from it for the poor.
