P: And who is better in speech than him who prayeth unto his Lord and doeth right, and saith: Lo! I am of those who are muslims (surrender unto Him).
S: And who speaks better than he who calls to Allah while he himself does good, and says: I am surely of those who submit?

Y: Nor can goodness and Evil be equal. Repel (Evil) with what is better:
Then will he between whom and thee was hatred become as it were thy
friend and intimate!
P: The good deed and the evil deed are not alike. Repel the evil deed with one which is better, then lo! he, between whom and thee there was enmity (will become) as though he was a bosom friend.
S: And not alike are the good and the evil. Repel (evil) with what is best, when lo! he between whom and you was enmity would be as if he were a warm friend.
041.035 Y: And no one will be granted such goodness except those who exercise patience and self-restraint,- none but persons of the greatest good fortune.
P: But none is granted it save those who are steadfast, and none is granted it save the owner of great happiness.
S: And none are made to receive it but those who are patient, and none are made to receive it but those who have a mighty good fortune.

Y: And if (at any time) an incitement to discord is made to thee by the
Evil One, seek refuge in Allah. He is the One Who hears and knows all
things.
P: And if a whisper from the devil reach thee (O Muhammad) then seek refuge in Allah. Lo! He is the Hearer, the Knower.
