برترین آیین

این آیه. مفهوم عام اسلام را که همان تسلیم بودن در مقابل حق استء به مفهوم خاص آن یعنی آیین اسلام منتقل می‌کند که کامل‌ترین نمونة آن است و می‌گوید: امروز جز آیین اسلام از هیچ کس پذیرفته نیست و در عین محترم بودن همه ادیان الهی» برنامةٌ امروز بشرء اسلام است. همان گونه که دانشجویان دورةٌ دکتری در عین احترام به تمام دروس که در مقاطع گوناگون تحصیلی مانند ابتدایی» راهنمایی» دبیرستان» لیسانس و... خوانده‌اند» تنها دروس سطح دورةٌ خودشان را باید دنبال کنند و پرداختن به غیر از آن جز زیان و خسارت چیزی نخواهد داشت, آنها هم که با تقلید نابجا و تعصب جاهلی و مسائل نژادی و خرافات خود بسازند و پشت به این آیین کنند بدون شک گرفتار زیان و خسران خواهند شد و جز تأسف و ندامت از بر باد دادن سرمایه‌های عمرء نتیجه‌ای نخواهند کَرفت.

  • لَّا تَجْعَلْ مَعَ ٱللَّهِ إِلَٰهًا ءَاخَرَ فَتَقْعُدَ مَذْمُومًا مَّخْذُولًا

    Do not make [as equal] with Allah another deity and [thereby] become censured and forsaken.

  • فَٱدْعُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ مُخْلِصِينَ لَهُ ٱلدِّينَ وَلَوْ كَرِهَ ٱلْكَٰفِرُونَ

  • وَمَا كَانَ لِنَفْسٍ أَن تُؤْمِنَ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِ ٱللَّهِ وَيَجْعَلُ ٱلرِّجْسَ عَلَى ٱلَّذِينَ لَا يَعْقِلُونَ

    And it is not for a soul to believe except by permission of Allah, and He will place defilement upon those who will not use reason.

  • إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ وَصَدُّوا۟ عَن سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ ثُمَّ مَاتُوا۟ وَهُمْ كُفَّارٌ فَلَن يَغْفِرَ ٱللَّهُ لَهُمْ

    Indeed, those who disbelieved and averted [people] from the path of Allah and then died while they were disbelievers - never will Allah forgive them.

  • وَمِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ مَن يَعْبُدُ ٱللَّهَ عَلَىٰ حَرْفٍ فَإِنْ أَصَابَهُۥ خَيْرٌ ٱطْمَأَنَّ بِهِۦ وَإِنْ أَصَابَتْهُ فِتْنَةٌ ٱنقَلَبَ عَلَىٰ وَجْهِهِۦ خَسِرَ ٱلدُّنْيَا وَٱلْـَٔاخِرَةَ ذَٰلِكَ هُوَ ٱلْخُسْرَانُ ٱلْمُبِينُ

    And of the people is he who worships Allah on an edge. If he is touched by good, he is reassured by it; but if he is struck by trial, he turns on his face [to the other…

  • وَٱلَّذِينَ يُحَآجُّونَ فِى ٱللَّهِ مِنۢ بَعْدِ مَا ٱسْتُجِيبَ لَهُۥ حُجَّتُهُمْ دَاحِضَةٌ عِندَ رَبِّهِمْ وَعَلَيْهِمْ غَضَبٌ وَلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ شَدِيدٌ

    And those who argue concerning Allah after He has been responded to - their argument is invalid with their Lord, and upon them is [His] wrath, and for them is a severe punishment.
