Message of the Holy Quran — Page 149
~ 149 ~ Compan- ions of the Holy Prophet sa Muhammad is the Messen- ger of Allah. And those who are with him are hard against the disbelievers but tender among themselves. Thou seest them bowing and prostrating themselves in Prayer, seeking Allah's grace and pleasure. Their marks are upon their faces, being the traces of prostra- tions. This is their descrip- tion in the Torah. And their description in the Gospel is like unto a seed-produce that sends forth its sprout, then makes it strong; it then becomes stout, and stands firm on its stem, delighting the sowers-that He may cause the disbelievers to boil with rage at the sight of them… 48:30 Those who believe and those who emigrate and strive hard in the cause of Allah, it is these who hope for Allah's mercy;… 2:219 Those who believed and left their homes f or the sake of God and strove in the cause of Allah with their wealth and their lives have the highest rank in the sight of Allah. And it is they who shall triumph. 9:20 See also Ab u Bakr ra : Holy Prophet sa :
