Famous quotes containing the words victory and/or day:
“Muhammad is the Messenger of God,
and those who are with him are hard
against the unbelievers, merciful
one to another. Thou seest them
bowing, prostrating, seeking bounty
from God and good pleasure. Their
mark is on their faces, the trace of
prostration....
God has promised
those of them who believe and do deeds
of righteousness forgiveness and
a mighty wage.”
—Qur’An. Victory 48:35, ed. Arthur J. Arberry (1955)
“... the absolute freedom of woman will be the dawn of the day of man’s regeneration. In raising her he will elevate himself.”
—Tennessee Claflin (1846–1923)
