Standing Firm in Islam

"So stand firm and straight (on the religion of Islamic Monotheism) as you are commanded, you and those (your companions) who turn in repentance (unto Allah) with you, and transgress not (Allah's legal limits). Verily, He is All-Seer of what you do"

[Surah Hood 11:112].

When a person came to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah, tell me of something in Islam that I shall not ask anyone else about after you. He said: "Say, 'I believe in Allah,' then stand firm and straight."
