and in the Hereafter he shall be one of the losers (3:85).

and in the Hereafter he shall be one of the losers (3:85)." "O you who believe! enter into submission one and all, and do not follow the footsteps of Shaytan (satan); surely he is your open enemy (2:208)." "And fulfil the covenant of Allah when you have made a covenant, and do not break the oaths after making them fast, and you have indeed made Allah a surety for you; surely Allah knows what you do (16:91)." The purpose of this verse is to indicate that any Muslim who makes a promise to Allah or to people must keep it and must not breach it.

"Call to the way of your Lord with wisdom and goodly exhortation, and have debates with them in the best manner; surely your Lord best knows those who go astray from His path, and He knows best those who follow the right way (16:125)." This refers to the fact that to promote religion, a Muslim must converse with people according to their understanding and in a way that is beneficial to them.

However, if he fails to guide a person through logic and advice then he must debate in the best manner, which is one of the means of proving something, to guide him towards truth. "And when the Qur'an is recited, then listen to it and remain silent, that mercy may be shown to you (7:204)." "O you who believe!

Obey Allah and obey the Prophet and those in authority from among you; then if you quarrel about anything, refer it to Allah and the Prophet, if you believe in Allah and the Last Day; this is better and very good in the end (4:59)." This verse means that in an Islamic society, disputes can only be settled by the Qur'an and the ahadith of the Prophet (SA). Every difference must be settled by these two factors.

If a Muslim settles differences by the logic of reason, this is due to the fact that the Qur'an has accepted the rule of logic.

"Thus, it is due to mercy from Allah that you deal with them gently, and had you been rough, hard-hearted, they would certainly have dispersed from around you; pardon them therefore and ask pardon for them, and take counsel with them in the affair; so when you have decided, then place your trust in Allah; surely Allah loves those who trust (3:159)." Good behaviour, benevolence, and taking counsel in the affairs result in fellowship and kindness.

Members of the society must respect their leader to be influenced by him. Allah orders the honourable leader of the Muslims to be benevolent and to take counsel.
