Shu‘aib said: ‘O my people, tell me if I adhere to the clear proof from my Lord and He has also granted me pure and fine means of living from His Presence, (then why should I not preach the Truth)? I (also) do not want that, following you, I myself start doing (against the Truth) the same that I am forbidding you. All I desire is to (reform) you as far as I can, and my capability comes only from Allah’s (help). So I have put my trust in Him alone and I turn towards Him alone.
