And from among you there should be a party who invite to good and enjoin what is right and forbid the wrong, and these it is that shall be successful.

You are the best of the nations raised up for (the benefit of) men; you enjoin what is right and forbid the wrong and believe in Allah; and if the followers of the Book had believed it would have been better for them; of them (some) are believers and most of them are transgressors.

They used not to forbid each other the hateful things (which) they did; certainly evil was that which they did.

Those who follow the Messenger-Prophet, the Ummi, whom they find written down with them in the Taurat and the Injeel (who) enjoins them good and forbids them evil, and makes lawful to them the good things and makes unlawful to them impure things, and removes from them their burden and the shackles which were upon them; so (as for) those who believe in him and honor him and help him, and follow the light which has been sent down with him, these it is that are the successful.

And those before them rejected (the truth), and these have not yet attained a tenth of what We gave them, but they gave the lie to My messengers, then how was the manifestation of My disapproval?

Then did I punish those who disbelieved, so how was the manifestation of My disapproval?

And certainly those before them rejected (the truth), then how was My disapproval.
