Quran verses about the straight path

الصراط المستقيم

22 verses in 14 surahs · 6 subtopics

The straight path, these verses say, is the path of Allah, which means worshipping Him alone. Allah guides to it whom He wills, the Qur’an leads to it, and the prophets and messengers walked it, like Abraham and his upright religion. Believers are told to follow it and not other ways, and the word also designates the crossing (as-sirat) between Paradise and the Fire.
