O you who have believed, fear Allah as He should be feared and do not die except as Muslims [in submission to Him].' (Qur'an 3:102).

O mankind! Fear your Lord Who created you and those before you.' O Mankind!

(Certainly no one despairs of Allah Mercy, except the people who disbelieve) (Qur'an 12: 87)

((They were reprieved] until, when the Messengers gave up hope and thought that they were denied [by their people], then came to them Our Help) (Qur'an 12: 110)
