“Qur’an 38:21 onward--
Has the news of the litigants ever reached you, when they climbed over the wall into the sanctuary? They burst in upon David so he was startled by them. They said: “Don’t be afraid. We are two litigants, one of whom has injured the other; so judge correctly between us and do not act too stern. Guide us along the Level Road.
“This is my brother; he has ninety-nine ewes while I have but a single ewe. He has said: ‘Turn her over to me,’ and has spoken harshly to me.” He said: “He has wronged you by asking for your ewe [to be added] to his own ewes. Many partners try to take advantage of one another, except for those who believe and perform honorable deeds. Such are few indeed.”
David suspected that We were merely testing him, so he sought forgiveness from his Lord and dropped down on his knees in worship and repented. So We forgave him that. He enjoys precedence with Us and the finest retreat.”

“Qur’an: Chapter 2, Verse 259—
Or like the man who passed by a town whose roofs had caved in. “He said how will God revive this following its death?” God let him die for a hundred years; then raised him up again. He said: “How long have you been waiting here?” He said: “I have been waiting a day or part of a day.” He said: “Rather you have stayed here a hundred years.” Yet look at your food and drink: they have not yet even become stale! And look at your donkey. We will grant you it as a sign for mankind. Look how We set its bones together, then clothe them with flesh.” When it was explained to him, he said: “I know that God is capable of everything.”

“17:59, 60
We sent Thamud the she-camel to open their eyes, yet they mistreated her. We merely send signs in order to frighten people.
Thus We told you: "Your Lord embraces all mankind.”
T.B. Irving, A Translation of the Meanings of the Noble Quran : The First American Version
“Qur’an: Chapter 27, Verse 62—
Who answers the distressed man when he appeals to Him, and removes evil, and makes you overlords on earth? Is there any deity alongside God? How seldom do you reflect!”

“Qur’an: Chapter 9, Verse 23—
You who believe, do not take your fathers and your brothers on as sponsors if they prefer disbelief rather than faith.”

“Qur’an: Chapter 12 - Joseph, Verse 80—
“You have already been remiss concerning Joseph so I shall never leave the land until my father permits me to, or God decides things for me.”

“Quran: Chapter 2, Verse 178
You who believe, compensation for the murdered victim has been prescribed for you: the freeman for the free, the slave for the slave, and the female for the female. Anyone who is pardoned in any way for it by his brother should follow this up appropriately, and handsomely make amends with him; that means a lightening as well as mercy from your Lord. Anyone who exceeds the limit after that shall have painful torment. You will find life in such compensation, O prudent persons, so that you may do your duty.”
