The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from The Koran: therein, and Satan wishes to lead them into a remote error. And when
it is said to them, 'Come round to what God has sent down and unto the
Apostle,' thou seest the hypocrites turning from thee, turning away.
How then when there befalls them a mischance through what their
hands have sent on before? then will they come to you, and swear by
God, 'We meant naught but good and concord.' These, God knows what
is in their hearts. Turn thou away from them and admonish them, and
speak to them into their souls with a searching word.
We have never sent an apostle save that he should be obeyed by the
permission of God; and if they, when they have wronged themselves,
come to thee and ask pardon of God, and the Apostle asks pardon for
The Koran |
