And why should I fear those you associate with Him, and you do not fear associating others with Allah for which He sent down to you no authority? Which side is more entitled to security, if you are aware?"
Those who believe, and do not obscure their faith with wrongdoing—those will have security, and they are guided.
That was Our argument which We gave to Abraham against his people. We elevate by degrees whomever We will. Your Lord is Wise and Informed.
And We gave him Isaac and Jacob—each of them We guided. And We guided Noah previously; and from his descendants David, and Solomon, and Job, and Joseph, and Moses, and Aaron. Thus We reward the righteous.
And Zechariah, and John, and Jesus, and Elias—every one of them was of the upright.
And Ishmael, and Elijah, and Jonah, and Lot—We favored each one of them over all other people.
And of their ancestors, and their descendants, and their siblings—We chose them, and guided them to a straight path.
Such is Allah's guidance. He guides with it whomever He wills of His servants. Had they associated, their deeds would have gone in vain.
Those are they to whom We gave the Book, and wisdom, and prophethood. If these reject them, We have entrusted them to others who do not reject them.
Those are they whom Allah has guided, so follow their guidance. Say, "I ask of you no compensation for it; it is just a reminder for all mankind."
