True Piety

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

السلام عليكم

"It is not piety, that you turn your faces to the East and to the West. True piety is this: to believe in God, and the Last Day, the angels, the Book, and the Prophets, to give of one's substance, however cherished, to kinsmen, and orphans, the needy, the traveller, beggars, and to ransom the slave, to perform the prayer, to pay the alms. And they who fulfil their covenant when they have engaged in a covenant, and endure with fortitude misfortune, hardship and peril, these are they who are true in their faith, these are the truly godfearing." Qur'an Al-Baqarah 2:177


"And those that believe, and do deeds of righteousness -- those are the inhabitants of Paradise; there they shall dwell forever." Qur'an Al-Baqarah 2:82
