Sorah Al-Ghashiya ( The Overwhelming ) - Verses Number 26
هَلْ أَتَاكَ حَدِيثُ الْغَاشِيَةِ ( 1 ) 
Has the story reached thee of the overwhelming (Event)?
وُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ خَاشِعَةٌ ( 2 )
Some faces, that Day, will be humiliated,
عَامِلَةٌ نَّاصِبَةٌ ( 3 )
Labouring (hard), weary,-
تَصْلَىٰ نَارًا حَامِيَةً ( 4 )
The while they enter the Blazing Fire,-
تُسْقَىٰ مِنْ عَيْنٍ آنِيَةٍ ( 5 )
The while they are given, to drink, of a boiling hot spring,
لَّيْسَ لَهُمْ طَعَامٌ إِلَّا مِن ضَرِيعٍ ( 6 )
No food will there be for them but a bitter Dhari'
لَّا يُسْمِنُ وَلَا يُغْنِي مِن جُوعٍ ( 7 )
Which will neither nourish nor satisfy hunger.
وُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ نَّاعِمَةٌ ( 8 )
(Other) faces that Day will be joyful,
لِّسَعْيِهَا رَاضِيَةٌ ( 9 )
Pleased with their striving,-
فِي جَنَّةٍ عَالِيَةٍ ( 10 )
In a Garden on high,
لَّا تَسْمَعُ فِيهَا لَاغِيَةً ( 11 )
Where they shall hear no (word) of vanity:
فِيهَا عَيْنٌ جَارِيَةٌ ( 12 )
Therein will be a bubbling spring:
فِيهَا سُرُرٌ مَّرْفُوعَةٌ ( 13 )
Therein will be Thrones (of dignity), raised on high,
وَأَكْوَابٌ مَّوْضُوعَةٌ ( 14 )
Goblets placed (ready),
وَنَمَارِقُ مَصْفُوفَةٌ ( 15 )
And cushions set in rows,
وَزَرَابِيُّ مَبْثُوثَةٌ ( 16 )
And rich carpets (all) spread out.
أَفَلَا يَنظُرُونَ إِلَى الْإِبِلِ كَيْفَ خُلِقَتْ ( 17 )
Do they not look at the Camels, how they are made?-
وَإِلَى السَّمَاءِ كَيْفَ رُفِعَتْ ( 18 )
And at the Sky, how it is raised high?-
وَإِلَى الْجِبَالِ كَيْفَ نُصِبَتْ ( 19 )
And at the Mountains, how they are fixed firm?-
وَإِلَى الْأَرْضِ كَيْفَ سُطِحَتْ ( 20 )
And at the Earth, how it is spread out?
فَذَكِّرْ إِنَّمَا أَنتَ مُذَكِّرٌ ( 21 )
Therefore do thou give admonition, for thou art one to admonish.
لَّسْتَ عَلَيْهِم بِمُصَيْطِرٍ ( 22 )
Thou art not one to manage (men's) affairs.
إِلَّا مَن تَوَلَّىٰ وَكَفَرَ ( 23 )
But if any turn away and reject Allah,-
فَيُعَذِّبُهُ اللَّهُ الْعَذَابَ الْأَكْبَرَ ( 24 )
Allah will punish him with a mighty Punishment,
إِنَّ إِلَيْنَا إِيَابَهُمْ ( 25 )
For to Us will be their return;
ثُمَّ إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا حِسَابَهُم ( 26 )
Then it will be for Us to call them to account.

- Etiquettes of a Muslim on FridayMany people are unaware of what the etiquette of a Muslim on Friday should be and most are unaware of its significance. Most do not consider the Friday Prayer as obligatory, hence they miss it intentionally. Many people in Islamic countries are on holiday on this day, so then spend their time sleeping, or in other activities that cause them to neglect the Friday prayer altogether. They do not realise the significance of the Friday Prayer and its sermon, and they come to the mosque according to their own wishes and desire. Most of them are unaware of what is required from a Muslim before or after the Friday Prayer. It is with these concerns in mind that this book has been written.
