Surah Al-Anbiya (21:28) Quran.com
وَلَا يَشْفَعُونَ إِلَّا لِمَنِ ارْتَضَىٰ وَهُمْ مِنْ خَشْيَتِهِ مُشْفِقُونَ He knows what is [presently] before them and what will be after them, and they cannot intercede except on behalf of one whom He approves. And they, from fear of Him, are apprehensive. (Sahih International)
Surah An-Nur (24:55) Quran.com
وَلَيُمَكِّنَنَّ لَهُمْ دِينَهُمُ الَّذِي ارْتَضَىٰ لَهُمْ Allah has promised those who have believed among you and done righteous deeds that He will surely grant them succession [to authority] upon the earth just as He granted it to those before them and that He will surely establish for them [therein] their religion which He has preferred for them and that He will surely substitute for them, after their fear, security, [for] they worship Me, not associating anything with Me. But whoever disbelieves after that - then those are the defiantly disobedient. (Sahih International)
Surah Al-Jinn (72:27) Quran.com
إِلَّا مَنِ ارْتَضَىٰ مِنْ رَسُولٍ فَإِنَّهُ يَسْلُكُ مِنْ بَيْنِ يَدَيْهِ وَمِنْ خَلْفِهِ رَصَدًا Except whom He has approved of messengers, and indeed, He sends before each messenger and behind him observers (Sahih International)
This is the end of the list. ٱرْتَضَىٰ was only mentioned 3 times in the Quran.
Disclaimer: Audio Pronunciation Guide Please note that the audio pronunciations provided within the Iqraa app are based directly on the Quranic articulation of words. For instance, if the word 'حُبّ' (hubb) is pronounced as 'حُبٌّ' (hubbun) within the context of the Quran, our audio will reflect this specific pronunciation. It's important to understand that while 'hubb' is the general term, the variations you hear in our audio are intentional, aiming to mirror the exact pronunciation as it appears in the Quran. This approach ensures that learners get an authentic experience of Quranic Arabic pronunciation, enhancing their understanding and connection to the holy text.
