"Our people, respond to [Mohammed] who calls to God, and believe in the [Quran]; so that [God] may forgive you [that which has passed] of your sins, and save you from a painful punishment [in the Next Life.]"

And whoso does not respond, to [the messenger] who calls to God, shall not frustrate or escape [from God’s power] in the earth, and shall not have any patrons beside Him [to deliver him from God's punishment.]

Such [who do not respond to the apostle of God] are in obvious error [away from the truth!]”
Quran 46: 31-32

This was some of the words of the genie who converted and invited his people to believe (as he believed) in God alone and in God's messenger: Mohammed son of Abd-Allah.

The most serious plight against the Prophet:

After conquering the Ta'ef city to the south of Mecca, the Prophet commanded the breaking up of all the statues and idols.
Then ...
[The delegation of the tribe of Thaqief came to the Prophet – salam to him – and said:

“Give us respite for few months until we receive what will be presented as gifts to our gods, then once we receive the gifts, we shall break up the idols, and shall convert; (They meant: We shall leave our idols without breaking them up, until we receive the gifts presented to us in the due time for the idol gifts); and if the Arab ask you about the reason for postponing it, then say: God commanded that.”

Therefore, this aya was revealed:]

{Quran 17: 73. The [associaters or idolaters] were about to tempt you [Mohammed] away from [the commandment] that We revealed to you; so that you might forge against Us other [words, and say: God commanded that.]

They – then – would certainly take you as their dear friend [because you would grant them what they want.]

74. And had We not confirmed you [Mohammed a], surely you were about to incline to them a little bit. b

75. In that case [if you had responded to their request], We would have let you taste a double [portion of the punishment] of living and a double [portion of the punishment] of dying; and moreover you would not have had – against Us – any helper c.}
...................................................................

74 a On the way of the truth and righteousness.

74 b i.e. you were about to incline to their words and by giving them respite for less than what they demanded of you.

75 c i.e. then We would have rejected you, and so none can help and assist you.

=========================================================

Therefore, the Prophet commanded at once the breaking up of all the idols immediately without any postponement.

And this is a recitation of this blessed soora 17

Sometimes I read other poster's material and thank the Almighty that I was just born me. I'm comfortable both in the company of Kings and Paupers.

A little swagger with a pinch of modesty...that's the recipe, folks! :)
