In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful


This project's focus is on how we can be using the Quran so we (by God's will) won't be in the situation of the Quran speaking against us on the Day of Judgement. If they are mistakes here, I dearly ask you to correct it immediately. May God protect us from the punishments of the grave, judgement day, and jahannam, and grant us the gardens of Paradise! Ameen.
Hadiths on the Quran
  • The Prophet Muhammad said, “Cleanliness is half of faith and Alhamdulillah [Praise be to Allah] fills the scale, and Subhan Allah [Glory be to Allah] and Alhamdulillah [Praise be to Allah] fill up what is be-tween the heavens and the earth, and prayer is a light, and charity is proof [of one’s faith] and patience is a brightness and the Qur’an is a proof on your behalf or against you.”
Source: Muslim no. 223 - [Sahih]


  • The Prophet Muhammad said, “Fasting and the Qur’an will intercede for the slave on the Day of Judgement. Fasting will say, ‘O My Lord! I prevented him from food and desires, so accept my intercession for him.’ And the Qur’an will say, ‘I prevented him from sleep during the night, so accept my intercession for him.’ ....thus they will intercede.”
Source: Musnad Ahmad no. 6337 - [Sahih]

Quran on Christians (present-day) worshiping Jesus Christ (May Peace be upon him)[edit | edit source]

  • وَإِذْ قَالَ اللَّـهُ يَا عِيسَى ابْنَ مَرْيَمَ أَأَنتَ قُلْتَ لِلنَّاسِ اتَّخِذُونِي وَأُمِّيَ إِلَـٰهَيْنِ مِن دُونِ اللَّـهِ ۖ قَالَ سُبْحَانَكَ مَا يَكُونُ لِي أَنْ أَقُولَ مَا لَيْسَ لِي بِحَقٍّ ۚ إِن كُنتُ قُلْتُهُ فَقَدْ عَلِمْتَهُ ۚ تَعْلَمُ مَا فِي نَفْسِي وَلَا أَعْلَمُ مَا فِي نَفْسِكَ ۚ إِنَّكَ أَنتَ عَلَّامُ الْغُيُوبِ
    • And [beware the Day] when Allah will say, "O Jesus, Son of Mary, did you say to the people, 'Take me and my mother as deities besides Allah?'" He will say, "Exalted are You! It was not for me to say that to which I have no right. If I had said it, You would have known it. You know what is within myself, and I do not know what is within Yourself. Indeed, it is You who is Knower of the unseen.

Surah Az-Zumar (سُوۡرَةُ الزُّمَر)[edit | edit source]

  • وَمَا قَدَرُواْ ٱللَّهَ حَقَّ قَدۡرِهِۦ وَٱلۡأَرۡضُ جَمِيعً۬ا قَبۡضَتُهُ ۥ يَوۡمَ ٱلۡقِيَـٰمَةِ وَٱلسَّمَـٰوَٲتُ مَطۡوِيَّـٰتُۢ بِيَمِينِهِۦ‌ۚ سُبۡحَـٰنَهُ ۥ وَتَعَـٰلَىٰ عَمَّا يُشۡرِكُونَ

  • وَنُفِخَ فِى ٱلصُّورِ فَصَعِقَ مَن فِى ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٲتِ وَمَن فِى ٱلۡأَرۡضِ إِلَّا مَن شَآءَ ٱللَّهُ‌ۖ ثُمَّ نُفِخَ فِيهِ أُخۡرَىٰ فَإِذَا هُمۡ قِيَامٌ۬ يَنظُرُونَ

    • It is not for a believing man or a believing woman, when Allah and His Messenger have decided a matter, that they should [thereafter] have any choice about their affair. And whoever disobeys Allah and His Messenger has certainly strayed into clear error

    • What aileth you that ye believe not in Allah, when the messenger calleth you to believe in your Lord, and He hath already made a covenant with you, if ye are believers?

Day of Judgement[edit | edit source]

The coming of this day is truly something to be afraid of... This day will abase some, exalt others (It will be abasing (some), exalting (others); 56:3)... A day that the parent will not be able to help the child in anything, nor can the child help the parent at all with anything. (Oh people! Keep your duty to your lord and fear a Day when the parent will not be able to avail the child in aught, nor the child to avail the parent. Surely, Allah's promise is true! Let not the life of the world beguile you, nor let the deceiver beguile you in regards to Allah; Surah Luqman, aiayh 33). Surely, we have to prepare for this day... when your limbs will testify against you, and your promises to Allah will be questions!

When? When will this happen? You don't know, no one knows, expect Allah (S.W.T). (The people ask thee about the Hour. Say, 'The knowledge of it is only with Allah'. And what will make thee know, perhaps the Hour may be near”. (Qur’an, 33:63))
