Al-Qur'an Subject Index
Strangling
| 5.3 | You are forbidden to eat the meat of any animal that dies by itself (dead body), blood, the flesh of swine (pork) and that on which any name other than Allah has been invoked; also that which is strangled to death , killed by a violent blow, killed by a headlong fall and of those beaten or gored to death; and that which has been partly eaten by a wild animal unless you are able to slaughter it before its death; also that which is sacrificed on altars or is divided by raffling of arrows. All these are sinful acts. Today the unbelievers have given up all their hope of vanquishing your religion. Have no fear of them, fear Me. Today I have perfected your religion for you, completed my favor upon you and approved Al-Islam as a Deen (way of life for you). Anyone who is compelled by hunger to eat what is forbidden, not intending to commit sin, will find Allah Forgiving, Merciful. |
Stratagem of War
| 8.16 | and whoever turns his back to them on such an occasion - unless it be a strategy of war, or to join towards a detachment - shall incur the wrath of Allah and his abode shall be hell, and how awful shall be that dwelling! |
Straying
| 26.91 | while hell shall be spread open to the straying |
| 26.92 | and they will be asked: "Now, where are those whom you worshipped |
| 26.93 | besides Allah? Can they help you or even help themselves?" |
| 26.94 | Then they will be toppled into it, both they and those who misled them, |
| 26.95 | together with all the armies of Iblees. |
| 26.96 | Wherein they will argue with one another |
| 26.97 | saying: " By Allah, we were indeed in manifest error, |
| 26.98 | when we made you equals with the Rabb of the Worlds. |
| 26.99 | It was the criminals who led us astray. |
| 26.100 | Now we have no intercessors, |
| 26.101 | and no loving friends. |
| 26.102 | If we could but once return to our worldly life, we would be of the true believers." |
| 26.103 | Surely in this narration there is a great lesson, but most of these people do not learn a lesson to become believers. |
| 38.26 | We said: "O Dawood! We have made you a vicegerent in the earth, so rule among the people with justice and do not follow your own desires lest they mislead you from the Way of Allah. As for those who go astray from the Way of Allah, they shall surely have a severe punishment because of forgetting the Day of Reckoning. |
| 39.36 | Is Allah not all-sufficient for His servants? Yet they try to frighten you with others besides Him! For such whom Allah confounds, there can be no guide. |
| 26.91 | while hell shall be spread open to the straying |
| 26.92 | and they will be asked: "Now, where are those whom you worshipped |
| 26.93 | besides Allah? Can they help you or even help themselves?" |
| 26.94 | Then they will be toppled into it, both they and those who misled them, |
| 26.95 | together with all the armies of Iblees. |
| 26.96 | Wherein they will argue with one another |
| 26.97 | saying: " By Allah, we were indeed in manifest error, |
| 26.98 | when we made you equals with the Rabb of the Worlds. |
| 26.99 | It was the criminals who led us astray. |
| 26.100 | Now we have no intercessors, |
| 26.101 | and no loving friends. |
| 26.102 | If we could but once return to our worldly life, we would be of the true believers." |
| 26.103 | Surely in this narration there is a great lesson, but most of these people do not learn a lesson to become believers. |
| 25.27 | On that Day the wrongdoer will bite his hands saying: "Oh! Would that I had only taken the pathway alongside the Rasool! |
| 25.28 | Oh! Would that I had never chosen so-and-so for my companion. |
| 25.29 | He was the one who led me astray from the admonition even after it had reached me." Shaitan is ever treacherous to man. |
| 13.33 | What! Are they so audacious that they ascribe partners to Allah, Who watches minutely over each and every soul and knows all that it does? O Prophet ask them: If Allah Himself has set them up as His partners then tell me their names! Do you mean to inform Him of something new that He Himself does not know on this earth, or do you merely utter empty words?" Nay! Indeed their foul devices seem fair to the unbelievers, for they have been debarred from the Right Way; and there is none to guide those whom Allah has let go astray. |
| 13.34 | They shall be punished in the life of this world, still more grievous is the punishment of the hereafter, and there is none to protect them from Allah. |
| 23.74 | and surely those who do not believe in the hereafter will ever stray from the Straight Way. |
Streams
| 13.3 | He is the One Who spread out the earth and placed thereon mountains and rivers, created fruits of every kind in pairs, two and two and makes the night cover the day. Certainly in these things there are signs for those who use their common sense. |
Strength
| 47.31 | We shall put you to test until We know the valiant and the resolute among you, and test all that is said about you. |
| 19.73 | When Our Clear Revelations are recited to them the unbelievers say to the believer: "Which one, of the two of us, have fine dwelling and better companions?" |
| 19.74 | Don't they see, how many generations have We destroyed before them, who were far greater in riches and in splendor? |
| 19.75 | Tell them: "Anyone who has gone astray, the Compassionate (Allah) prolongs his respite and extends an opportunity until they see about which they were warned; - be it a worldly scourge or the Hour of Doom - then they will realize whose is the worst dwelling and whose are the weak companions? |
Strengthening
| 3.200 | O believers! Be patient, excel in patience during confrontation, hold yourselves ready for battle and have fear of Allah so that you may succeed. |
| 94.8 | and turn all your attention towards your Rabb. |
| 11.20 | These people cannot frustrate His plan in the land and there is none to protect them besides Allah. Their punishment shall be doubled, for they could neither hear others who speak the Truth nor see the Truth for themselves. |
| 8.60 | Muster against them all the military strength and cavalry that you can afford so that you may strike terror into the hearts of the enemy of Allah and of your, and others besides them who are unknown to you but known to Allah. Remember that whatever you will spend in the cause of Allah, shall be paid back to you in full and you shall not be treated unjustly. |
| 3.20 | So if they argue with you (O Muhammad), tell them: "I have submitted myself entirely to Allah and so have those who follow me." Then ask those who are given the Book and those who are illiterates: "Will you also submit yourselves to Allah?" If they become Muslims they shall be rightly guided but if they turn back, you need not worry, because your sole responsibility is to convey the Message. Allah is watching all His servants very closely. |
| 2.265 | The example of those who spend their wealth to seek the pleasure of Allah and to strengthen their souls is like a garden on a high and fertile ground: when heavy rain falls on it, it yields up twice its normal produce; and if no rain falls, a light moisture is sufficient. Whatever you do is in the sight of Allah. |
Stress
| 2.177 | Righteousness is not whether you turn your face towards East or West; but the righteousness is to believe in Allah, the Last Day, the Angels, the Books and the Prophets, and to spend wealth out of love for Him on relatives, orphans, helpless, needy travellers, those who ask for and on the redemption of captives; and to establish Salah (prayers), to pay Zakah (alms), to fulfill promises when made, to be steadfast in distress, in adversity, and at the time of war. These people are the truthful and these are the pious. |
Striking Fear
| 8.57 | If you encounter them in combat, make them a fearsome example for others who would follow them so that they all may learn a lesson. |
Striving
| 9.81 | Those who remained behind (did not join the Tabuk expedition) were delighted to sit inactive behind Allah's Rasool, and they hated to make Jihad with their goods and their persons in the cause of Allah. They said to each other "Do not go forth in the heat." Say to them: "The fire of hell is much more severe in heat." If only they could understand! |
| 25.52 | therefore, do not yield to the unbelievers, and make Jihad (strive) against them with this Qur'an, a mighty Jihad (strenuous striving). |
| 29.69 | As for those who strive in Our cause, We will surely guide them to Our ways; rest assured that Allah is with the righteous. |
| 61.11 | It is to believe in Allah and His Rasool and strive your utmost in the cause of Allah with your wealth and your persons. That is best for you, if you but knew it. |
Striving
| 9.81 | Those who remained behind (did not join the Tabuk expedition) were delighted to sit inactive behind Allah's Rasool, and they hated to make Jihad with their goods and their persons in the cause of Allah. They said to each other "Do not go forth in the heat." Say to them: "The fire of hell is much more severe in heat." If only they could understand! |
| 9.82 | Let them laugh a little; much will they weep as a recompense for what they have earned. |
| 9.83 | From now on, if Allah brings you among them and any of them ask your permission to go forth for Jihad, say: "You shall never be allowed to go forth with me nor fight an enemy in my company. You chose to sit inactive on the first occasion, therefore you shall now stay with those who stay behind." |
| 9.84 | You shall never offer funeral prayer for any of them who dies, nor shall you attend their burial, for they have denied Allah and His Rasool and died while they were transgressors. |
| 9.85 | Let neither their wealth nor their children dazzle you. Through these Allah wants to punish them in this world and let their souls depart while they are still disbelievers. |
| 9.86 | Whenever a Surah is revealed, saying: " Believe in Allah and make Jihad along with His Rasool," capable people among them ask you for exemption, saying: "Please leave us with those who are to stay at home." |
| 9.87 | They preferred to be with those who remain behind, as a result, a seal was set upon their hearts so that they do not understand. |
| 9.73 | O Prophet! Make Jihad against the unbelievers and the hypocrites and be firm against them. Hell shall be their home; and it is the worst of all homes. |
| 25.52 | therefore, do not yield to the unbelievers, and make Jihad (strive) against them with this Qur'an, a mighty Jihad (strenuous striving). |
| 16.110 | On the other hand, Allah is most surely forgiving and compassionate towards those who had to leave their homes after being persecuted because of their faith, struggled hard and remained steadfastly patient. |
| 17.19 | He that desires the life of the hereafter and strives for it as best as he can provided he is a Believer, the endeavor of every such person will be accepted. |
| 9.73 | O Prophet! Make Jihad against the unbelievers and the hypocrites and be firm against them. Hell shall be their home; and it is the worst of all homes. |
| 4.95 | Those believers who stay at home - having no physical disability - are not equal to those who make Jihad (struggle) in the cause of Allah with their wealth and their persons. Allah has granted a higher rank to those who make Jihad with their wealth and their persons than to those who stay at home. Though Allah has promised a good reward for all, Allah has prepared a much richer reward for those who make Jihad for Him than for those who stay at home |
| 4.96 | - they have special higher ranks, forgiveness and mercy. Allah is Forgiving, Merciful. |
| 8.72 | Those who believed (embraced Islam), migrated and made Jihad (exerted their utmost struggle) with their wealth and their persons in the cause of Allah; as well as those who gave them asylum and help, are indeed the protecting friends of one another. As to those who believed (embraced Islam) but did not emigrate (to Dar-ul-Islam, the Islamic State), you are under no obligation to protect them until they emigrate; yet it is your obligation to help them in the matters of faith if they ask for your help, except against a people with whom you have a treaty. Allah is observant of all your actions. |
| 9.20 | Those who believe (embrace Islam), leave their homes (migrate), and make Jihad with their wealth and persons in the cause of Allah, have higher rank in the sight of Allah. It is they who will be truly successful. |
| 9.21 | Their Rabb gives them good news of His mercy, His good pleasure, and paradise with everlasting bliss. |
| 9.22 | They will live therein forever. Surely it is Allah with Whom is the mighty reward. |
| 9.41 | March forth whether you are equipped lightly or heavily and make Jihad (exert your utmost) in the way of Allah with your wealth and your persons. That is best for you if you understand. |
| 9.44 | Those who believe in Allah and the Last Day will never ask you for exemption from fighting with their wealth and their persons. Allah is aware of those who are righteous. |
| 9.88 | But the Rasool and those who believe with him, make Jihad with their wealth and their persons. They are the ones who will have all the goodness, and they are the ones who will be successful. |
| 9.89 | Allah has prepared for them gardens beneath which rivers flow, to live therein forever: that is the greatest achievement. |
| 9.111 | Indeed Allah has purchased from the believers their persons and their wealth and in return has promised them paradise; they fight in the cause of Allah and slay and are slain. This is a true promise which is binding on Him mentioned in Taurat (Torah), the Injeel (Gospel) and the Qur'an; and who is more true in fulfilling his promise than Allah? Rejoice, therefore, in the bargain which you have made, and that is a mighty achievement. |
| 49.15 | The true believers are those who believe in Allah and His Rasool, then never doubt; and make Jihad (exert their efforts) with their wealth and their persons in the cause of Allah. Such are the ones who are truthful in their claim to be the believers. |
| 61.10 | O believers! Should I tell you of a bargain that will save you from a painful punishment? |
| 61.11 | It is to believe in Allah and His Rasool and strive your utmost in the cause of Allah with your wealth and your persons. That is best for you, if you but knew it. |
| 61.12 | He will forgive you your sins and admit you to gardens beneath which rivers flow, and will lodge you in beautiful mansions in the gardens of Eden, which will be a supreme achievement. |
| 61.13 | And yet another blessing which you love: help from Allah and a speedy victory. So O Prophet, give this good news to the believers. |
| 66.9 | O Prophet! Make Jihad (struggle including war) against the unbelievers and the hypocrites and deal sternly with them. Hell shall be their home, and that is an evil abode! |
| 94.8 | and turn all your attention towards your Rabb. |
| 9.24 | O Prophet, tell them: If your fathers, your sons, your brothers, your spouses, your relatives, the wealth that you have acquired, the business in which you fear a loss, and the homes which you like are dearer to you than Allah, His Rasool, and making Jihad (struggle) in His Way, then wait until Allah brings about His decision. Allah does not guide the transgressors. |
| 9.24 | O Prophet, tell them: If your fathers, your sons, your brothers, your spouses, your relatives, the wealth that you have acquired, the business in which you fear a loss, and the homes which you like are dearer to you than Allah, His Rasool, and making Jihad (struggle) in His Way, then wait until Allah brings about His decision. Allah does not guide the transgressors. |
| 5.33 | The punishment for those who wage war against Allah and His Rasool and strive to create mischief in the land is death or crucifixion or the cutting off their hands and feet from opposite sides or exile from the land based on the gravity of their offense. This will be their humiliation in this world and in the Hereafter they will have grievous punishment, |
| 5.34 | except those who repent before you apprehend them, in such a case, you should know that Allah is Forgiving, Merciful. |
| 34.5 | As for those who strive to discredit Our revelations, there will be a humiliating painful punishment. |
| 34.38 | As for those who strive in opposing Our revelations, they shall be brought for punishment. |
| 22.51 | but those who strive against Our revelations shall be the inmates of flaming fire." |
| 2.114 | Who is more unjust than he who prevents people from the Masajid (place of worship) of Allah , forbids the mention of His name therein, and strives to ruin them ? It is not proper for such people to enter in them except with His fear. For them there is disgrace in this world and grievous punishment in the Hereafter. |
| 47.31 | We shall put you to test until We know the valiant and the resolute among you, and test all that is said about you. |
| 2.218 | Surely those who are believers, and migrated and struggled in the path of Allah, they can hope for the mercy of Allah; and Allah is Forgiving, Merciful." |
| 5.35 | O believers! Fear Allah and seek the means to be closer to Him and make Jihad (struggle) in His Way so that you may be successful. |
| 5.54 | O believers! Whoever among you renounce Islam let him do so; soon Allah will replace them with others whom He will love and they will love Him, who will be humble towards the believers, mighty against the unbelievers, striving hard in the way of Allah, and will have no fear of reproach from any critic. Now this is the grace of Allah which He bestows on whom He pleases. Allah has boundless knowledge. |
| 8.74 | Those who believed (embraced Islam), migrated and made Jihad (exerted their utmost struggle) in the cause of Allah, and those who gave them asylum and help - they are the true believers. They shall have forgiveness and honorable provisions. |
| 8.75 | Those who believed (embraced Islam) afterwards, migrated and joined you in Jihad - they too are your brothers, although according to the Book of Allah the blood relatives have greater rights on one other. Indeed Allah knows everything. |
| 9.19 | Have you made those who provide water to the pilgrims and maintain the Masjid-al-Haram equal to those who believe in Allah, the Last Day and make Jihad (striving in the cause of Allah)? They are not equal in the sight of Allah, and Allah does not guide the wrongdoers. |
| 22.78 | Strive in the Way of Allah as you ought to strive with sincerity and discipline; He has chosen you and has not laid upon you any hardship in the observance of your faith - the faith of your father Ibrahim (Abraham). He named you Muslims before in prior scriptures and in this (The Qur'an), so that His Rasool may testify against you and you yourselves may testify against rest of the mankind. Therefore, establish Salah, pay Zakah and hold fast to Allah; Who is your Protector - so what an excellent Protector and what a splendid Supporter! |
| 30.69 | |
| 60.1 | O believers! Do not make friendship with those who are enemies of Mine and yours. Would you show them friendship, when they have denied the truth that has come to you and have driven the Rasool and yourselves out of your homes, simply because you believe in Allah, your Rabb? If it was indeed to strive in My way, and to seek My good pleasure that you left your homes, how can you befriend in secret? I know all that you conceal, and all that you reveal. Any of you who does this, he indeed has gone astray from the Right Way. |
| 60.2 | If they overcome you, they would behave to you as enemies and stretch out their hands and their tongues towards you with evil, and they wish to see you become unbelievers. |
| 60.3 | On the Day of Resurrection, neither your relatives nor your children shall avail you. Allah will judge between you, and He is observing all your actions. |
| 60.4 | You have an excellent example in Ibrahim (Abraham) and his companions. They said to their people plainly: "We are clear of you and your gods, whom you worship besides Allah. We renounce you. Enmity and hate shall reign between us forever until you believe in Allah, the One and Only God." But do not emulate what Ibrahim said to his father: "I will pray for your forgiveness, although I have no power to get anything for you from Allah." Their collective prayer was: "Our Rabb! In You we have put our trust, to You we turn in repentance and to You is our final goal. |
| 60.5 | Our Rabb! Do not expose us to the plots of the unbelievers. Forgive us, our Rabb! You are the All-Mighty, the All-Wise." |
| 60.6 | Truly, in those there is an excellent example for everyone who puts their hopes in Allah and the Last Day. He that gives no heed should know that Allah is free of all wants, worthy of all praise. |
| 60.7 | It may well be that Allah will put love between you and those with whom you are now at odds because of the order which is given to you, for Allah is All-Powerful, and Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. |
| 60.8 | Allah does not forbid you to be kind and equitable to those who had neither fought against your faith nor driven you out of your homes. In fact Allah loves the equitable. |
| 60.9 | Allah only forbids you to make friendship with those who fought you on account of your faith and drove you out of your homes and backed up others in your expulsion. Those who will take them for friends are indeed the wrongdoers. |
| 4.95 | Those believers who stay at home - having no physical disability - are not equal to those who make Jihad (struggle) in the cause of Allah with their wealth and their persons. Allah has granted a higher rank to those who make Jihad with their wealth and their persons than to those who stay at home. Though Allah has promised a good reward for all, Allah has prepared a much richer reward for those who make Jihad for Him than for those who stay at home |
| 4.96 | - they have special higher ranks, forgiveness and mercy. Allah is Forgiving, Merciful. |
| 8.72 | Those who believed (embraced Islam), migrated and made Jihad (exerted their utmost struggle) with their wealth and their persons in the cause of Allah; as well as those who gave them asylum and help, are indeed the protecting friends of one another. As to those who believed (embraced Islam) but did not emigrate (to Dar-ul-Islam, the Islamic State), you are under no obligation to protect them until they emigrate; yet it is your obligation to help them in the matters of faith if they ask for your help, except against a people with whom you have a treaty. Allah is observant of all your actions. |
| 9.20 | Those who believe (embrace Islam), leave their homes (migrate), and make Jihad with their wealth and persons in the cause of Allah, have higher rank in the sight of Allah. It is they who will be truly successful. |
| 9.21 | Their Rabb gives them good news of His mercy, His good pleasure, and paradise with everlasting bliss. |
| 9.22 | They will live therein forever. Surely it is Allah with Whom is the mighty reward. |
| 9.41 | March forth whether you are equipped lightly or heavily and make Jihad (exert your utmost) in the way of Allah with your wealth and your persons. That is best for you if you understand. |
| 9.44 | Those who believe in Allah and the Last Day will never ask you for exemption from fighting with their wealth and their persons. Allah is aware of those who are righteous. |
| 9.88 | But the Rasool and those who believe with him, make Jihad with their wealth and their persons. They are the ones who will have all the goodness, and they are the ones who will be successful. |
| 9.89 | Allah has prepared for them gardens beneath which rivers flow, to live therein forever: that is the greatest achievement. |

This is a true promise which is binding on Him mentioned in Taurat (Torah), the Injeel (Gospel) and the Qur'an; and who is more true in fulfilling his promise than Allah? Rejoice, therefore, in the bargain which you have made, and that is a mighty achievement. |
| 49.15 | The true believers are those who believe in Allah and His Rasool, then never doubt; and make Jihad (exert their efforts) with their wealth and their persons in the cause of Allah. Such are the ones who are truthful in their claim to be the believers. |

| 61.11 | It is to believe in Allah and His Rasool and strive your utmost in the cause of Allah with your wealth and your persons. That is best for you, if you but knew it. |
| 61.12 | He will forgive you your sins and admit you to gardens beneath which rivers flow, and will lodge you in beautiful mansions in the gardens of Eden, which will be a supreme achievement. |
| 61.13 | And yet another blessing which you love: help from Allah and a speedy victory. So O Prophet, give this good news to the believers. |
