– Know, may Allah have mercy upon you, that it is obligatory upon every Muslim, male and female, to learn and act upon the following three matters.

– The First (matter): That Allah created us and provided sustenance for us, and He did not leave us without a purpose rather he sent Messengers to us. So whoever obeys him will enter Paradise, and whoever rejects and disobeys him will enter the Fire, and the proof is the saying of the Most High: We sent a Messenger to you, O people, as a witness in favour of you or against you on the Day of Resurrection, just as We sent a Messenger to Firawn. But Firawn denied and rejected the Messenger, so we seized him with a severe punishment.” Surah Muzzammil (73):16
