Chapter 5, Page 124, Juz 7

97. Allah has appointed the Ka'bah, the Sacred House, as a means of support for (the collective life of) men, and has caused the holy month (of Pilgrimage), and the animals of sacrificial of-fering and their distinguishing collars to assist therein. This is so that you may know that Allah is aware of all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth; and that Allah has knowledge of everything. 98. Know well that Allah is severe in retribution, and that Allah is also All-Forgiving, All-Compassionate. 99. The Messenger is bound only to deliver the message, whereafter Allah knows well all that you disclose and all that you conceal. 100. (O Messenger!) Say to them: "The bad things and the good things are not equal, even though the abundance of the bad things might make you pleased with them. Men of understanding, beware of disobeying Allah; then maybe you will attain true success.'
