Sorah Ash-Shams ( The Sun ) - Verses Number 15
وَالشَّمْسِ وَضُحَاهَا ( 1 ) 
By the Sun and his (glorious) splendour;
وَالْقَمَرِ إِذَا تَلَاهَا ( 2 )
By the Moon as she follows him;
وَالنَّهَارِ إِذَا جَلَّاهَا ( 3 )
By the Day as it shows up (the Sun's) glory;
وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَاهَا ( 4 )
By the Night as it conceals it;
وَالسَّمَاءِ وَمَا بَنَاهَا ( 5 )
By the Firmament and its (wonderful) structure;
وَالْأَرْضِ وَمَا طَحَاهَا ( 6 )
By the Earth and its (wide) expanse:
وَنَفْسٍ وَمَا سَوَّاهَا ( 7 )
By the Soul, and the proportion and order given to it;
فَأَلْهَمَهَا فُجُورَهَا وَتَقْوَاهَا ( 8 )
And its enlightenment as to its wrong and its right;-
قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَن زَكَّاهَا ( 9 )
Truly he succeeds that purifies it,
وَقَدْ خَابَ مَن دَسَّاهَا ( 10 )
And he fails that corrupts it!
كَذَّبَتْ ثَمُودُ بِطَغْوَاهَا ( 11 )
The Thamud (people) rejected (their prophet) through their inordinate wrong-doing,
إِذِ انبَعَثَ أَشْقَاهَا ( 12 )
Behold, the most wicked man among them was deputed (for impiety).
فَقَالَ لَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ نَاقَةَ اللَّهِ وَسُقْيَاهَا ( 13 )
But the Messenger of Allah said to them: "It is a She-camel of Allah! And (bar her not from) having her drink!"
فَكَذَّبُوهُ فَعَقَرُوهَا فَدَمْدَمَ عَلَيْهِمْ رَبُّهُم بِذَنبِهِمْ فَسَوَّاهَا ( 14 )
Then they rejected him (as a false prophet), and they hamstrung her. So their Lord, on account of their crime, obliterated their traces and made them equal (in destruction, high and low)!
وَلَا يَخَافُ عُقْبَاهَا ( 15 )
And for Him is no fear of its consequences.

- Ruling of Peace Treaties with the JewsIt is the victory of the Jews, notwithstanding that they are a small group, over the Muslim ’ummah in four successive wars. The Arab Muslims whom these defeats have affected concur about the indispensability of concluding peace and compromise with the Jews, saying that there is no alternative before them and offering the excuse that the Jews are helped by the Western nations and America while the Muslims have no power and authority in their favour. And after having extended their hands for compromise with the Jews some of the Arabs have in fact concluded treaties with them calling these Peace Treaties. Since these treaties contain conditions that are invalid, more harmful and graver than defeats in the wars, and since people are asking about what should the Muslims' attitude be towards the Jews and towards the Peace Treaties that have been concluded, and because Allah Subhânahu wa Ta‘âlâ has taken a ovenant of those who are given knowledge to elucidate and not to conceal anything, I have liked to write briefly about the attitude which, according to sharî‘ah, the members of the Islamic ’ummah should adopt towards these treaties they call Peace Treaties.
