Abstract
The Qur’an describes in so many of its verses, particularly those in its chapter Surah al-Furqan (25:63-77), the commendable attributes of the people who are sincerely devoted to Allah, the Most Beneficent. In these verses, the Qur’an, indeed, invites its followers to develop a society where the members demonstrate unique behavioral pattern, dignity, leniency, humility, serenity, patience, modesty, abstinence from frivolous acts, and honesty in their public and private dimensions of life. The methodology applied in the discussion is critical analysis. The conclusion arrived at is that Muslims need to return to the divine instructions in the Qur’an with a view to getting inspired as to the exemplary human qualities in the society.

Summary
The Qur‟an seeks to develop a society where the members demonstrate in the true sense of the word the behavioral pattern comprising highest attributes of dignity, leniency, serenity, honesty, and generosity. The Qur‟anic instructions of this nature are available in a good number of its verses. The 25th Qur‟anic chapter (Surah alFurqan) in its last fifteen verses (25:63-77) describes in an unequivocal manner the most desirable human attributes which elevate the status of those equipped with these qualities to that of the Slaves of the Most Beneficent („ibad alRahman). This study is aimed at explaining the selected verses (25:63-77) in the light of the commentators of the Qur‟an, reminding the Muslims, who are blamed today for extremism, intolerance, and terrorism, of their sublime status of the slaves of Allah, the Most Beneficent
