Sorah At-Tariq ( The Night-Comer ) - Verses Number 17
وَالسَّمَاءِ وَالطَّارِقِ ( 1 ) 
By the Sky and the Night-Visitant (therein);-
وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا الطَّارِقُ ( 2 )
And what will explain to thee what the Night-Visitant is?-
النَّجْمُ الثَّاقِبُ ( 3 )
(It is) the Star of piercing brightness;-
إِن كُلُّ نَفْسٍ لَّمَّا عَلَيْهَا حَافِظٌ ( 4 )
There is no soul but has a protector over it.
فَلْيَنظُرِ الْإِنسَانُ مِمَّ خُلِقَ ( 5 )
Now let man but think from what he is created!
خُلِقَ مِن مَّاءٍ دَافِقٍ ( 6 )
He is created from a drop emitted-
يَخْرُجُ مِن بَيْنِ الصُّلْبِ وَالتَّرَائِبِ ( 7 )
Proceeding from between the backbone and the ribs:
إِنَّهُ عَلَىٰ رَجْعِهِ لَقَادِرٌ ( 8 )
Surely (Allah) is able to bring him back (to life)!
يَوْمَ تُبْلَى السَّرَائِرُ ( 9 )
The Day that (all) things secret will be tested,
فَمَا لَهُ مِن قُوَّةٍ وَلَا نَاصِرٍ ( 10 )
(Man) will have no power, and no helper.
وَالسَّمَاءِ ذَاتِ الرَّجْعِ ( 11 )
By the Firmament which returns (in its round),
وَالْأَرْضِ ذَاتِ الصَّدْعِ ( 12 )
And by the Earth which opens out (for the gushing of springs or the sprouting of vegetation),-
إِنَّهُ لَقَوْلٌ فَصْلٌ ( 13 )
Behold this is the Word that distinguishes (Good from Evil):
وَمَا هُوَ بِالْهَزْلِ ( 14 )
It is not a thing for amusement.
إِنَّهُمْ يَكِيدُونَ كَيْدًا ( 15 )
As for them, they are but plotting a scheme,
وَأَكِيدُ كَيْدًا ( 16 )
And I am planning a scheme.
فَمَهِّلِ الْكَافِرِينَ أَمْهِلْهُمْ رُوَيْدًا ( 17 )
Therefore grant a delay to the Unbelievers: Give respite to them gently (for awhile).

- The Sword of Allah: Khalid bin Al-WaleedThe Sword of Allah: Khalid bin Al-Waleed: Khalid bin Al-Waleed was one of the greatest generals in history, and one of the greatest heroes of Islam. Besides him, Genghis Khan was the only other general to remain undefeated in his entire military life. This book was written by the late Lieutenant-General A.I. Akram of the Pakistan Army, in October 1969. The author learnt Arabic in order to draw on the earliest historical sources and he visited every one of Khalid's battlefields in order to draw analyses from the viewpoint of military strategy, including reconciling conflicting historians' accounts. The book was originally published by the Army Education Press, Rawalpindi, Pakistan and printed by Feroze Sons Publishers in Lahore, Pakistan. The excellence of the book was such that it has been translated from English into Arabic and is currently sold in bookshops throughout the Arab World.

- The Difference between Advising and CondemningIn this classical treatise, Ibn Rajab (may Allah have mercy on him) discusses the differences between advising and condemning, which is an extremely important topic since it is very common that the two are confused for one another. For the most part, his talk revolves around the dealings and affairs of the scholars, and how it was from their way to advise and accept the truth from one another. And he shows how condemning was not from their characteristics, but rather from the signs of the evil and wicked people who held hidden goals and objectives.This book is especially important in these days due to the wide scale confusion that exists on this subject amongst the Muslims. So today when we find scholars of the Sunnah refuting weak opinions of other scholars from the past, they are quickly accused of hating those scholars of the past and just condemning them, when in fact they are really advising the ummah and warning the Muslims against following a man in his error. So, we hope that these matters become clear to the reader upon studying this treatise and that he is able to distinguish those who are truly advising from those who are just condemning.
