O my father, indeed there has come to me of knowledge that which has not come to you, so follow me; I will guide you to an even path.

— Saheeh International
So by your Lord, We will surely gather them and the devils; then We will bring them to be present around Hell upon their knees.1
— Saheeh International
Then We will surely extract from every sect those of them who were worst against the Most Merciful in insolence.
— Saheeh International

And We will inherit him [in] what he mentions,1 and he will come to Us alone.
