Muhammad is the Messenger of God, and those who are with him are hard against the unbelievers, merciful one to another. Thou seest them bowing, prostrating, seeking bounty from God and good pleasure. Their mark is on their faces, the trace of prostration.... God has promised those of them who believe and do deeds of righteousness forgiveness and a mighty wage.
