Al-Islam: The Universal Moral & Ethical Orientation For Peace and Human Progress

2:143. Thus have We made of you an Ummah justly balanced that ye might be witnesses over the nations and the Apostle a witness over yourselves; and We appointed the Qiblah to which thou wast used only to test those who followed the Apostle from those who would turn on their heels (from the faith).  Indeed it was (a change) momentous except to those guided by Allah.  And never would Allah make your faith of no effect.  For Allah is to all people most surely full of kindness Most Merciful."

Hadith "Not one of you truly believes until his desires are subservient to what I have brought"

Imam Mohammed(ra) "It is sad that a great nation with so many great elements working in it and travailing to come to fruition, fears for its security and allows itself to become the anti-Christ. It must be confessed that the culture that has done most in gaining social healing for the European world is an enslaved culture, covertly enslaved, having no power to do anything but whet our moral appetite in a dry desert.”
