4. وَقُل رَّبِّ اَدْخِلْنِىْ مُدْخَلَ صِدْقٍ وَّ اَخْرِجْنِىْ مُخْرَجَ صِدْقٍ وَّاجْعَل لِّىْ مِنْ لَّدُنْكَ سُلْطٰنًا نَّصِيْرًا‏ __ [ 17:81] And say, ‘O my Lord, make my entry a good entry and then make me come forth with a good forthcoming. And grant me from Thyself a helping power.’ [28:36] قَالَ سَنَشُدُّ عَضُدَكَ بِاَخِيْكَ وَنَجْعَلُ لَـكُمَا سُلْطٰنًا فَلَا يَصِلُوْنَ اِلَيْكُمَا‌‌ ۛ‌ۚ بِاٰيٰتِنَاۤ ‌ۛ‌ۚ اَنْتُمَا وَمَنِ اتَّبَعَكُمَا الْغٰلِبُوْنَ‏ __ 28:36- God said, ‘We will strengthen thy arm with thy brother and We will give power to you both so that they shall not be able to reach you.

6. [38:12] جُنْدٌ مَّا هُنَالِكَ مَهْزُوْمٌ مِّنَ الْاَحْزَابِ ‏ [38:12] “They are a host from among the confederates which will be routed here.” [54:46] سَيُهْزَمُ الْجَمْعُ وَيُوَلُّوْنَ الدُّبُرَ ‏ [54:46] “The hosts shall soon be routed and will turn their backs in flight.” [79:8] تَتْبَعُهَا الرَّادِفَةُ ‏ [79:8] “And a second quaking shall follow it.”

7. [56:4] خَافِضَةٌ رَّافِعَةٌۙ ‏ [56:4] “Some it will bring low, others it will exalt.” [30:3] غُلِبَتِ الرُّوْمُۙ ‏ [30:3] “The Romans have been defeated..” [30:4] فِىْۤ اَدْنَى الْاَرْضِ وَهُمْ مِّنْۢ بَعْدِ غَلَبِهِمْ سَيَغْلِبُوْنَۙ ‏ [30:4] “In the land nearby, and they, after their defeat, will be victorious.”

10. [17:5] وَقَضَيْنَاۤ اِلٰى بَنِىْۤ اِسْراۤءِيْلَ فِىْ الْكِتٰبِ لَـتُفْسِدُنَّ فِىْ الْاَرْضِ مَرَّتَيْنِ وَلَتَعْلُنَّ عُلُوًّا كَبِيْرًا ‏ [17:5] “And We revealed to the children of Israel in the Book, saying, ‘You will surely do mischief in the land twice, and you will surely become excessively overbearing.” [17:105] وَّقُلْنَا مِنْۢ بَعْدِه لِبَنِىْۤ اِسْرَاۤءِيْلَ اسْكُنُوْا الْاَرْضَ فَاِذَا جَآءَ وَعْدُ الْاٰخِرَةِ جِئْنَا بِكُمْ لَفِيْفًا ‏ [17:105] “And after him We said to the children of Israel, ‘Dwell ye in the land; and when the time of the promise of the latter days comes, We shall bring you together out of various peoples.’’

11. [21:106] وَلَـقَدْ كَتَبْنَا فِىْ الزَّبُوْرِ مِنْۢ بَعْدِ الذِّكْرِ اَنَّ الْاَرْضَ يَرِثُهَا عِبَادِىَ الصّٰلِحُوْنَ ‏ [21:106] “And already have We written in the Book of David, after the exhortation, that My righteous servants shall inherit the land.” [21:107] اِنَّ فِىْ هٰذَا لَبَلٰغًا لّـِقَوْمٍ عٰبِدِيْنَ ‏ [21:107] “Herein, surely, is a message for people who worship God.”

12. 3:113] ضُرِبَتْ عَلَيْهِمُ الذِّلَّةُ اَيْنَ مَا ثُقِفُوْۤا اِلَّا بِحَبْلٍ مِّنَ اللّٰهِ وَحَبْلٍ مِّنَ النَّاسِ وَبَآءُوْ بِغَضَبٍ مِّنَ اللّٰهِ وَضُرِبَتْ عَلَيْهِمُ الْمَسْكَنَةُ ذٰلِكَ بِاَنَّهُمْ كَانُوْا يَكْفُرُوْنَ بِاٰيٰتِ اللّٰهِ وَيَقْتُلُوْنَ الْاَنْۢبِيَآءَ بِغَيْرِ حَقٍّ ‌ ذٰلِكَ بِمَا عَصَوا وَّكَانُوْا يَعْتَدُوْنَ ‏ [3:113] “Smitten shall they be with abasement wherever they are found, unless they have protection from Allah, or protection from men; They have incurred the wrath of Allah, and smitten are they with wretchedness. That is because they would reject the Signs of Allah and kill the Prophets unjustly. That is because they rebelled and used to transgress.”

13. [7:168] وَاِذْ تَاَذَّنَ رَبُّكَ لَيَبْعَثَنَّ عَلَيْهِمْ اِلٰى يَوْمِ الْقِيٰمَةِ مَنْ يَّسُوْمُهُمْ سُوْٓءَ الْعَذَابِ ‌ اِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَسَرِيْعُ الْعِقَابِ ‌ ‌ ۖۚ وَاِنَّه لَـغَفُوْرٌ رَّحِيْمٌ ‏ [7:168] “And remember the time when thy Lord proclaimed that He would truly raise against them, till the Day of Resurrection, those who would afflict them with grievous torment. Surely, thy Lord is quick in retribution, and surely He is also Most Forgiving, Merciful.”

14. [3:200] وَاِنَّ مِنْ اَهْلِ الْكِتٰبِ لَمَنْ يُّؤْمِنُ بِاللّٰهِ وَمَاۤ اُنْزِلَ اِلَيْكُمْ وَمَاۤ اُنْزِلَ اِلَيْهِمْ خٰشِعِيْنَ لِلّٰهِۙ لَا يَشْتَرُوْنَ بِاٰيٰتِ اللّٰهِ ثَمَنًا قَلِيْلًا ‌ اُولٰٓٮِٕكَ لَهُمْ اَجْرُهُمْ عِنْدَ رَبِّهِمْ ‌ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ سَرِيْعُ الْحِسَابِ ‏ [3:200] “And surely among the People of the Book there are some who believe in Allah and in what has been sent down to you and in what was sent down to them, humbling themselves before Allah. They barter not the Signs of Allah for a paltry price. It is these who shall have their reward with their Lord. Surely, Allah is swift to take account.”

15. [55:20] مَرَجَ الْبَحْرَيْنِ يَلْتَقِيٰنِۙ ‏ [55:20] “He has made the two bodies of water flow. They will one day meet.” [55:21] بَيْنَهُمَا بَرْزَخٌ لَّا يَبْغِيٰنِ ‌ ۚ ‏ [55:21] “Between them is now a barrier; they encroach not one upon the other.” [55:23] يَخْرُجُ مِنْهُمَا اللُّـؤْلُـؤُ وَالْمَرْجَانُ ‌ ۚ ‏ [55:23] “There come out from them pearls and coral.”

16. [55:25] وَلَهُ الْجَوَارِ الْمُنْشَئٰتُ فِىْ الْبَحْرِ كَالْاَعْلَامِ ‌ ۚ ‏ [55:25] “And His are the lofty ships reared aloft on the sea like mountains.”

17. [16:9] وَّالْخَـيْلَ وَالْبِغَالَ وَالْحَمِيْرَ لِتَرْكَبُوْهَا وَزِيْنَةً ‌ وَيَخْلُقُ مَا لَا تَعْلَمُوْنَ ‏ [16:9] “And He has created horses and mules and asses that you may ride them, and as a source of beauty. And He will create what you do not yet know.” [36:43] وَخَلَقْنَا لَهُمْ مِّنْ مِّثْلِه مَا يَرْكَبُوْنَ ‏ [36:43] “And We have created for them the like thereof whereon they ride.” [81:5] وَاِذَا الْعِشَارُ عُطِّلَتْۙ ‏ [81:5] “And when the she-camels, ten month pregnant, are abandoned.”
