And
[mention, O Muhammad], when your Lord said to the angels, "I will create
a human being out of clay from an altered black mud. And when I have proportioned him
and breathed into him of My [created] spirit, then fall down to him in
prostration." (15:28-29)

[the
king] Said [to the women], "What was your condition when you sought to
seduce Joseph?" They said, "Perfect is Allah ! We know about him no
evil." The wife of al-'Azeez said, "Now the truth has become
evident. It was I who sought to seduce him, and indeed, he is of the
truthful. [Then Yusuf (Joseph) said: "I asked for this enquiry] in order
that he (Al-'Aziz) may know
that I did not betray him in [his] absence and that Allah does not guide the
plan of betrayers. And I do not acquit myself (my soul).
Indeed, the soul is a persistent enjoiner of evil, except those upon
which my Lord has mercy. Indeed, my Lord is Forgiving and Merciful."
(12:51-53)

I
swear by the Day of Resurrection. And I swear by the reproaching soul
[the self-reproaching person (a believer)]. Does man think that We will not
assemble his bones? (75:1-3)

And
they ask you, [O Muhammad], about the Spirit. Say, "The Spirit is of the
affair of my Lord. And mankind have not been given of knowledge except a
little." (17:85)

And
[by] the soul and He who proportioned it. And inspired it [with
discernment of] its wickedness and its righteousness, He has succeeded who purifies it, And he has failed who instills it [with
corruption]. (91:7-10)

Every
soul will taste death. Then to Us will you be returned. (29:57)
