Narrated Abu Huraira (Radi`Allahu anhu):

The Prophet (Sall`Allahu alaihi wasallam) said,

"Allah (Subhanuhu wa Ta`ala) says:

'I am just as My slave thinks I am,

(i.e. I am able to do for him what he thinks I can do for him)

and I am with him if he remembers Me.

if he remembers Me in himself,

I too, remember him in Myself;

and if he remembers Me in a group of people,

I remember him in a group that is better than they;

and if he comes one span nearer to Me,

I go one cubit nearer to him;

and if he comes one cubit nearer to Me,

I go a distance of two outstretched arms nearer to him;

and if he comes to Me walking, I go to him running.' "

Let there be a community among you who call to the good, and enjoin the right, and forbid the wrong. They are the ones who have success.(Qur'an, 3:104)

They believe in Allah and the Last Day, and enjoin the right and forbid the wrong, and compete in doing good. They are among the righteous.(Qur'an, 3:114)

If you avoid the serious wrong actions you have been forbidden, We will erase your bad actions from you and admit you by a Gate of Honour.(Qur'an, 4:31)

Help one another in birr (righteousness, virtue), and taqwa (piety, fear of Allah, God-consciousness), and do not help one another in sinning and transgression. And fear and revere Allah; verily, Allah is severe in punishment.(Qur'an, 5:2)

You who believe! Have fear of Allah and seek the means of drawing near to Him and strive in His way,so that hopefully you'll be successful. (Qur'an, 5:35)

Ask your Lord for forgiveness and then repent to Him. He will let you enjoy a good life until a specified time, and will give His favour to all who merit it. But if you turn your backs, I fear for you the punishment of a Mighty Day.(Qur'an, 11:3)

Strive for Allah with the striving due to Him. He has selected you and not placed any constraint upon you in the religion-the religion of your forefather Ibrahim. He named you Muslims before and also in this, so that the Messenger could be witness against you and you could be witnesses against all mankind. So perform prayer and give alms and hold fast to Allah. He is your Protector-the Best Protector, the Best Helper. (Qur'an, 22:78)
