The Qur'an portrays the believer as a whole of faith + deed + character — not in one line, but in several concise portraits.
The opening of al-Baqara (2:2-5)
- "Who believe in the unseen, keep up the prayer, and spend of what We have given them; who believe in what was sent to you and before you, and are certain of the Hereafter. They are upon guidance and they are the successful."
The portrait of success (23:1-2)
- "The believers have succeeded: those humble in their prayer…"
Hearts that tremble, trust in God alone (8:2)
- "Whose hearts tremble when God is mentioned, whose faith grows when His verses are recited, and who trust in their Lord alone."
The true believer (49:15)
- "Those who believe in God and His Messenger and then do not doubt, and strive with their wealth and lives."
The definition of true goodness (2:177)
- "True goodness is to believe in God, the Last Day, the angels, the Book and the prophets; to give of cherished wealth to kin, orphans, the needy…; to keep up prayer and give zakāh; to keep one's word; to be patient in hardship. Those are the truthful; those are the mindful (muttaqūn)."
Faith is a degree beyond submission (49:14)
"We submitted" is the door; faith is what settles in the heart and turns into deeds.
