• 2:30 · Al-Baqarahلِلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةِ to the angelsAnd [mention, O Muhammad], when your Lord said to the angels, "Indeed, I will make upon the earth a successive authority." They said, "Will You place upon it one who causes corruption therein and sheds blood, while we declare Your praise and sanctify You?" Allah said, "Indeed, I know that which you do not know."
• 2:31 · Al-Baqarahٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةِ the angelsAnd He taught Adam the names - all of them. Then He showed them to the angels and said, "Inform Me of the names of these, if you are truthful."
• 2:34 · Al-Baqarahلِلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةِ to the angelsAnd [mention] when We said to the angels, "Prostrate before Adam"; so they prostrated, except for Iblees. He refused and was arrogant and became of the disbelievers.
• 2:98 · Al-Baqarahوَمَلَـٰٓئِكَتِهِۦ and His AngelsWhoever is an enemy to Allah and His angels and His messengers and Gabriel and Michael - then indeed, Allah is an enemy to the disbelievers.
• 2:102 · Al-Baqarahٱلْمَلَكَيْنِ the two angelsAnd they followed [instead] what the devils had recited during the reign of Solomon. It was not Solomon who disbelieved, but the devils disbelieved, teaching people magic and that which was revealed to the two angels at Babylon, Harut and Marut. But the two angels do not teach anyone unless they say, "We are a trial, so do not disbelieve [by practicing magic]." And [yet] they learn from them that by which they cause separation between a man and his wife. But they do not harm anyone through it except by permission of Allah. And the people learn what harms them and does not benefit them. But the Children of Israel certainly knew that whoever purchased the magic would not have in the Hereafter any share. And wretched is that for which they sold themselves, if they only knew.
• 2:161 · Al-Baqarahوَٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةِ and the AngelsIndeed, those who disbelieve and die while they are disbelievers - upon them will be the curse of Allah and of the angels and the people, all together,

Those are the ones who have been true, and it is those who are the righteous.
• 2:210 · Al-Baqarahوَٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةُ and the AngelsDo they await but that Allah should come to them in covers of clouds and the angels [as well] and the matter is [then] decided? And to Allah [all] matters are returned.

Indeed in that is a sign for you, if you are believers."
• 2:285 · Al-Baqarahوَمَلَـٰٓئِكَتِهِۦ and His AngelsThe Messenger has believed in what was revealed to him from his Lord, and [so have] the believers. All of them have believed in Allah and His angels and His books and His messengers, [saying], "We make no distinction between any of His messengers." And they say, "We hear and we obey. [We seek] Your forgiveness, our Lord, and to You is the [final] destination."

• 3:45 · Ali 'Imranٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةُ the Angels[And mention] when the angels said, "O Mary, indeed Allah gives you good tidings of a word from Him, whose name will be the Messiah, Jesus, the son of Mary - distinguished in this world and the Hereafter and among those brought near [to Allah].
• 3:80 · Ali 'Imranٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةَ the AngelsNor could he order you to take the angels and prophets as lords. Would he order you to disbelief after you had been Muslims?
• 3:87 · Ali 'Imranوَٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةِ and the AngelsThose - their recompense will be that upon them is the curse of Allah and the angels and the people, all together,
• 3:124 · Ali 'Imranٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةِ [the] Angels[Remember] when you said to the believers, "Is it not sufficient for you that your Lord should reinforce you with three thousand angels sent down?

They will say, "We were oppressed in the land." The angels will say, "Was not the earth of Allah spacious [enough] for you to emigrate therein?" For those, their refuge is Hell - and evil it is as a destination.
• 4:136 · An-Nisaوَمَلَـٰٓئِكَتِهِۦ and His AngelsO you who have believed, believe in Allah and His Messenger and the Book that He sent down upon His Messenger and the Scripture which He sent down before. And whoever disbelieves in Allah, His angels, His books, His messengers, and the Last Day has certainly gone far astray.
• 4:166 · An-Nisaوَٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةُ and the AngelsBut Allah bears witness to that which He has revealed to you. He has sent it down with His knowledge, and the angels bear witness [as well]. And sufficient is Allah as Witness.
• 4:172 · An-Nisaٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةُ the AngelsNever would the Messiah disdain to be a servant of Allah, nor would the angels near [to Him]. And whoever disdains His worship and is arrogant - He will gather them to Himself all together.
• 6:8 · Al-An'amمَلَكٌۭ ۖ an AngelAnd they say, "Why was there not sent down to him an angel?" But if We had sent down an angel, the matter would have been decided; then they would not be reprieved.
• 6:8 · Al-An'amمَلَكًۭا an AngelAnd they say, "Why was there not sent down to him an angel?" But if We had sent down an angel, the matter would have been decided; then they would not be reprieved.

And if you could but see when the wrongdoers are in the overwhelming pangs of death while the angels extend their hands, [saying], "Discharge your souls! Today you will be awarded the punishment of [extreme] humiliation for what you used to say against Allah other than the truth and [that] you were, toward His verses, being arrogant."
• 6:111 · Al-An'amٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةَ the AngelsAnd even if We had sent down to them the angels [with the message] and the dead spoke to them [of it] and We gathered together every [created] thing in front of them, they would not believe unless Allah should will. But most of them, [of that], are ignorant.
• 6:158 · Al-An'amٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةُ the AngelsDo they [then] wait for anything except that the angels should come to them or your Lord should come or that there come some of the signs of your Lord?

Indeed, we [also] are waiting."

• 2:247 · Al-Baqarahٱلْمُلْكُ the kingshipAnd their prophet said to them, "Indeed, Allah has sent to you Saul as a king."

He said, "Indeed, Allah has chosen him over you and has increased him abundantly in knowledge and stature. And Allah gives His sovereignty to whom He wills. And Allah is all-Encompassing [in favor] and Knowing."
• 2:247 · Al-Baqarahبِٱلْمُلْكِ to kingshipAnd their prophet said to them, "Indeed, Allah has sent to you Saul as a king."

• 2:258 · Al-Baqarahٱلْمُلْكَ the kingdomHave you not considered the one who argued with Abraham about his Lord [merely] because Allah had given him kingship?

Abraham said, "Indeed, Allah brings up the sun from the east, so bring it up from the west." So the disbeliever was overwhelmed [by astonishment], and Allah does not guide the wrongdoing people.
• 3:26 · Ali 'Imranٱلْمُلْكِ (of) the DominionSay, "O Allah, Owner of Sovereignty, You give sovereignty to whom You will and You take sovereignty away from whom You will. You honor whom You will and You humble whom You will. In Your hand is [all] good. Indeed, You are over all things competent.

• 5:18 · Al-Ma'idahمُلْكُ (is the) dominionBut the Jews and the Christians say, "We are the children of Allah and His beloved." Say, "Then why does He punish you for your sins?"

• 4:3 · An-Nisaمَلَكَتْ possessesAnd if you fear that you will not deal justly with the orphan girls, then marry those that please you of [other] women, two or three or four. But if you fear that you will not be just, then [marry only] one or those your right hand possesses. That is more suitable that you may not incline [to injustice].
• 4:24 · An-Nisaمَلَكَتْ you possessAnd [also prohibited to you are all] married women except those your right hands possess. [This is] the decree of Allah upon you. And lawful to you are [all others] beyond these, [provided] that you seek them [in marriage] with [gifts from] your property, desiring chastity, not unlawful sexual intercourse. So for whatever you enjoy [of marriage] from them, give them their due compensation as an obligation. And there is no blame upon you for what you mutually agree to beyond the obligation. Indeed, Allah is ever Knowing and Wise.
• 4:25 · An-Nisaمَلَكَتْ possess[ed]And whoever among you cannot [find] the means to marry free, believing women, then [he may marry] from those whom your right hands possess of believing slave girls. And Allah is most knowing about your faith. You [believers] are of one another. So marry them with the permission of their people and give them their due compensation according to what is acceptable. [They should be] chaste, neither [of] those who commit unlawful intercourse randomly nor those who take [secret] lovers. But once they are sheltered in marriage, if they should commit adultery, then for them is half the punishment for free [unmarried] women. This [allowance] is for him among you who fears sin, but to be patient is better for you. And Allah is Forgiving and Merciful.
• 4:36 · An-Nisaمَلَكَتْ possess[ed]Worship Allah and associate nothing with Him, and to parents do good, and to relatives, orphans, the needy, the near neighbor, the neighbor farther away, the companion at your side, the traveler, and those whom your right hands possess. Indeed, Allah does not like those who are self-deluding and boastful.
• 5:17 · Al-Ma'idahيَمْلِكُ has powerThey have certainly disbelieved who say that Allah is Christ, the son of Mary. Say, "Then who could prevent Allah at all if He had intended to destroy Christ, the son of Mary, or his mother or everyone on the earth?"

• 5:25 · Al-Ma'idahأَمْلِكُ (have) power[Moses] said, "My Lord, indeed I do not possess except myself and my brother, so part us from the defiantly disobedient people."
• 5:41 · Al-Ma'idahتَمْلِكَ will you have powerO Messenger, let them not grieve you who hasten into disbelief of those who say, "We believe" with their mouths, but their hearts believe not, and from among the Jews. [They are] avid listeners to falsehood, listening to another people who have not come to you. They distort words beyond their [proper] usages, saying "If you are given this, take it; but if you are not given it, then beware." But he for whom Allah intends fitnah - never will you possess [power to do] for him a thing against Allah. Those are the ones for whom Allah does not intend to purify their hearts. For them in this world is disgrace, and for them in the Hereafter is a great punishment.
• 5:76 · Al-Ma'idahيَمْلِكُ has powerSay, "Do you worship besides Allah that which holds for you no [power of] harm or benefit while it is Allah who is the Hearing, the Knowing?"

And if I knew the unseen, I could have acquired much wealth, and no harm would have touched me. I am not except a warner and a bringer of good tidings to a people who believe."
• 10:31 · Yunusيَمْلِكُ controlsSay, "Who provides for you from the heaven and the earth? Or who controls hearing and sight and who brings the living out of the dead and brings the dead out of the living and who arranges [every] matter?" They will say, "Allah," so say, "Then will you not fear Him?"
• 10:49 · Yunusأَمْلِكُ I have powerSay, "I possess not for myself any harm or benefit except what Allah should will. For every nation is a [specified] term. When their time has come, then they will not remain behind an hour, nor will they precede [it]."
• 13:16 · Ar-Ra'dيَمْلِكُونَ they have powerSay, "Who is Lord of the heavens and earth?" Say, "Allah." Say, "Have you then taken besides Him allies not possessing [even] for themselves any benefit or any harm?" Say, "Is the blind equivalent to the seeing? Or is darkness equivalent to light? Or have they attributed to Allah partners who created like His creation so that the creation [of each] seemed similar to them?" Say, "Allah is the Creator of all things, and He is the One, the Prevailing."
• 16:71 · An-Nahlمَلَكَتْ possessAnd Allah has favored some of you over others in provision. But those who were favored would not hand over their provision to those whom their right hands possess so they would be equal to them therein. Then is it the favor of Allah they reject?
• 16:73 · An-Nahlيَمْلِكُ possessesAnd they worship besides Allah that which does not possess for them [the power of] provision from the heavens and the earth at all, and [in fact], they are unable.
• 17:56 · Al-Israيَمْلِكُونَ they have powerSay, "Invoke those you have claimed [as gods] besides Him, for they do not possess the [ability for] removal of adversity from you or [for its] transfer [to someone else]."
• 17:100 · Al-Israتَمْلِكُونَ possessSay [to them], "If you possessed the depositories of the mercy of my Lord, then you would withhold out of fear of spending." And ever has man been stingy.
• 19:87 · Maryamيَمْلِكُونَ they will have the powerNone will have [power of] intercession except he who had taken from the Most Merciful a covenant.
• 20:89 · Ta-Haيَمْلِكُ possessDid they not see that it could not return to them any speech and that it did not possess for them any harm or benefit?
• 23:6 · Al-Mu'minunمَلَكَتْ possessExcept from their wives or those their right hands possess, for indeed, they will not be blamed -
• 24:31 · An-Nurمَلَكَتْ possessAnd tell the believing women to reduce [some] of their vision and guard their private parts and not expose their adornment except that which [necessarily] appears thereof and to wrap [a portion of] their headcovers over their chests and not expose their adornment except to their husbands, their fathers, their husbands' fathers, their sons, their husbands' sons, their brothers, their brothers' sons, their sisters' sons, their women, that which their right hands possess, or those male attendants having no physical desire, or children who are not yet aware of the private aspects of women. And let them not stamp their feet to make known what they conceal of their adornment. And turn to Allah in repentance, all of you, O believers, that you might succeed.
• 24:33 · An-Nurمَلَكَتْ possessBut let them who find not [the means for] marriage abstain [from sexual relations] until Allah enriches them from His bounty. And those who seek a contract [for eventual emancipation] from among whom your right hands possess - then make a contract with them if you know there is within them goodness and give them from the wealth of Allah which He has given you. And do not compel your slave girls to prostitution, if they desire chastity, to seek [thereby] the temporary interests of worldly life. And if someone should compel them, then indeed, Allah is [to them], after their compulsion, Forgiving and Merciful.
• 24:58 · An-Nurمَلَكَتْ possessO you who have believed, let those whom your right hands possess and those who have not [yet] reached puberty among you ask permission of you [before entering] at three times: before the dawn prayer and when you put aside your clothing [for rest] at noon and after the night prayer. [These are] three times of privacy for you. There is no blame upon you nor upon them beyond these [periods], for they continually circulate among you - some of you, among others.
