| And Ebrahim (AS) enjoined it upon his sons and Yaqub (AS) | وَوَصَّى بِهَآ إِبْرَاهِيْمُ بَنِيْهِ وَيَعْقُوْبُ | |
| “O my sons, truly Allah (SWT) has chosen for you the religion | يَا بَنِيَّ إِنَّ اللهَ اصْطَفَى لَكُمُ الدِّيْنَ | |
| 2-132 | so, die not except that you are in submission” | فَلَا تَمُوْتُنَّ إِلَّا وَأَنْتُمْ مُسْلِمُوْنَ |
| Indeed, the religion with Allah (SWT) is submission | إِنَّ الدِّيْنَ عِنْدَ اللهِ الإِسْلَامُ | |
| and not differed those who were given the book except, from after what came to them of knowledge | وَمَا اخْتَلَفَ الَّذِيْنَ أُوْتُوا الكِتَابَ إِلَّا مِن بَعْدِ مَا جَآءَهُمُ العِلْمُ | |
| out of envy among them | بَغْيًا بَيْنَهُمْ | |
| 3-19 | and whoever disbelieves in the signs of Allah SWT then truly Allah SWT is quick to take account | وَمَنْ يَكْفُرْ بِئَايَاتِ اللهِ فَإِنَّ اللهَ سَرِيْعُ الحِسَابِ |
| Say, “My Lord has commanded to justice and establish your faces towards every place of prostration | قُلْ أَمَرَ رَبِّي بِالقِسْطِ وَأَقِيْمُوا وُجُوْهَكُمْ عِنْدَ كُلِّ مَسْجِدٍ | |
| 7-29 | and invoke Him, sincere to Him in the religion, like how He originated you, you will return | وَادْعُوْهُ مُخْلِصِيْنَ لَهُ الدِّيْنَ كَمَا بَدَأَكُمْ تَعُوْدُوْنَ |
| He is the One who enables you to travel in the land and the sea until when you are in the ships | هُوَ الَّذِي يُسَيِّرُكُمْ فِي البَرِّ وَالبَحْرِ حَتَّى إِذَا كُنْتُمْ فِي الفُلْكِ | |
| and they sail with them with a good wind, and they rejoice therein, a stormy wind comes to them | وَجَرَيْنَ بِهِمْ بِرِيْحٍ طَيِّبَةٍ وَفَرِحُوا بِهَا جَآءَتْهَا رِيْحٌ عَاصِفٌ | |
| and the waves come to them from every place, and they think they are surrounded by them, they call Allah SWT | وَجَآءَهُمُ المَوْجُ مِن كُلِّ مَكَانٍ وَظَنُّوا أَنَّهُمْ أُحِيْطَ بِهِمْ دَعَوُا اللهَ | |
| 10-22 | sincerely to Him in the religion “if You save us from this surely, we will be among the thankful” | مُخْلِصِيْنَ لَهُ الدِّيْنَ لَئِنْ أَنْجَيْنَا مِنْ هَذِهِ لَنَكُوْنَنَّ مِنَ الشَّاكِرِيْنَ |
