(Human innate nature)
Their apostles said "Is there any doubt about God, the
originator of the heavens and the earth?! He calls you to forgive you a part of
your sins, and grants you respite until a specified time." They said
"You are nothing but humans like us who desire to bar us from what our
fathers used to worship. So bring us a manifest authority." 14:10
When distress befalls people, they supplicate their Lord,
turning to Him in penitence. Then, when He lets them taste His mercy, behold, a
part of them ascribe partners to their Lord. 30:33
Say "Who delivers you from the darkness of land and
sea, [when] You invoke Him suppliantly and secretly: "If He delivers us
from this, we will surely be among the grateful"?" Say "It is
God who delivers you from them and from every agony, [but] then you ascribe
partners [to Him].” 6:63-64
It
is He who carries you across land and sea. When you are in the ships, and they
sail with them with a favorable wind, rejoicing in it, there comes upon them a
tempestuous wind and waves assail them from every side, and they think that
they are besieged, they invoke God putting exclusive faith in Him "If You
deliver us from this, we will surely be among the grateful.” But when He
delivers them, behold, they commit violations on the earth unduly! O mankind!
Your violations are only to your own detriment. [These are] the wares of the
life of this world; then to Us will be your return, whereat We will inform you
concerning what you used to do. 10:22-23
And when distress befalls you at sea, those whom you invoke
besides Him are forsaken. But when He delivers you to land, you are
disregardful [of Him] . And man is very ungrateful. 17:67
Thus did We show Abraham the dominions of the heavens and
the earth, that he might be of those who possess certitude. When night darkened
over him, he saw a star and said, "This is my Lord!" But when it set,
he said, "I do not like those who set. Then, when he saw the moon rising,
he said, "This is my Lord!" But when it set, he said, "Had my
Lord not guided me, I would surely have been among the astray lot.”
Then, when he saw the sun rising, he said, "This is my
Lord! This is bigger!" But when it set, he said, "O my people, indeed
I disown what you take as [His] partners. Indeed I have turned my face toward
Him who originated the heavens and the earth, as a Hanif, and I am not one of
the polytheists.” 6:75-79
