Cheer up CAD. Mr. Oppresso will be back

Aha, really !!
To CAD. I guess so CAD. However I try I cannot find any better words then the one listed below.
"Holy Quran"
They have hearts but do not understand, eyes but do not see. They have ears but do not hear. They are worse than lost cattle. These are the heedless ones.
Have forgiveness, preach the truth, and keep away from the ignorant ones
When a satanic thought starts to bother the pious ones, they understand and see the light (7:201)
while their brethren ceaselessly try to drag them into error. (7:202)
If you , (Muhammad), do not show them a miracle, they will keep on insisting that you must show them one. Say, "I only follow what is revealed to me from my Lord. This (Quran) contains wisdom for you from your Lord. It contains guidance and mercy for
those who have faith. (7:203)
Whenever the Quran is recited (to you), listen to it quietly so that you may receive mercy (7:204).
Remember your Lord deep within yourselves, humbly and privately - instead of shouting out loud - (in prayer) in the mornings and evenings and do not be of the heedless ones (7:205).

I guess if I am a Practising Muslim I'd rather stop here heeding the above advice.
