Aya 88
88
قالَ يا قَومِ أَرَأَيتُم إِن كُنتُ عَلىٰ بَيِّنَةٍ مِن رَبّي وَرَزَقَني مِنهُ رِزقًا حَسَنًا ۚ وَما أُريدُ أَن أُخالِفَكُم إِلىٰ ما أَنهاكُم عَنهُ ۚ إِن أُريدُ إِلَّا الإِصلاحَ مَا استَطَعتُ ۚ وَما تَوفيقي إِلّا بِاللَّهِ ۚ عَلَيهِ تَوَكَّلتُ وَإِلَيهِ أُنيبُ

Bijan Moeinian

Shu’aib said: “For the sake of argument, imagine that God (beyond the shadow of the doubt) has revealed the truth to me. In addition, He has showered me with His best blessings. How can I, then (just in order to please you) join you in your evil practices? No way, I will never do what I forbid you to do. My only desire is to reform you and I will do my best to achieve this goal. My success in this enterprise completely depends on God in Whom I have put my trust and to Whom I have submitted full heartedly.”
