وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَىٰ ( 1 )

By the night when it covers

وَالنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّىٰ ( 2 )

And [by] the day when it appears

وَمَا خَلَقَ الذَّكَرَ وَالْأُنثَىٰ ( 3 )

And [by] He who created the male and female,

إِنَّ سَعْيَكُمْ لَشَتَّىٰ ( 4 )

Indeed, your efforts are diverse.

فَأَمَّا مَنْ أَعْطَىٰ وَاتَّقَىٰ ( 5 )

As for he who gives and fears Allah

وَصَدَّقَ بِالْحُسْنَىٰ ( 6 )

And believes in the best [reward],

فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ ( 7 )

We will ease him toward ease.

وَأَمَّا مَن بَخِلَ وَاسْتَغْنَىٰ ( 8 )

But as for he who withholds and considers himself free of need

وَكَذَّبَ بِالْحُسْنَىٰ ( 9 )

And denies the best [reward],

فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْعُسْرَىٰ ( 10 )

We will ease him toward difficulty.

وَمَا يُغْنِي عَنْهُ مَالُهُ إِذَا تَرَدَّىٰ ( 11 )

And what will his wealth avail him when he falls?

إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا لَلْهُدَىٰ ( 12 )

Indeed, [incumbent] upon Us is guidance.

وَإِنَّ لَنَا لَلْآخِرَةَ وَالْأُولَىٰ ( 13 )

And indeed, to Us belongs the Hereafter and the first [life].

فَأَنذَرْتُكُمْ نَارًا تَلَظَّىٰ ( 14 )

So I have warned you of a Fire which is blazing.

لَا يَصْلَاهَا إِلَّا الْأَشْقَى ( 15 )

None will [enter to] burn therein except the most wretched one.

الَّذِي كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ ( 16 )

Who had denied and turned away.

وَسَيُجَنَّبُهَا الْأَتْقَى ( 17 )

But the righteous one will avoid it -

الَّذِي يُؤْتِي مَالَهُ يَتَزَكَّىٰ ( 18 )

[He] who gives [from] his wealth to purify himself

وَمَا لِأَحَدٍ عِندَهُ مِن نِّعْمَةٍ تُجْزَىٰ ( 19 )

And not [giving] for anyone who has [done him] a favor to be rewarded

إِلَّا ابْتِغَاءَ وَجْهِ رَبِّهِ الْأَعْلَىٰ ( 20 )

But only seeking the countenance of his Lord, Most High.

وَلَسَوْفَ يَرْضَىٰ ( 21 )

And he is going to be satisfied.

Evolution of FiqhThe author says in the introduction of the second edition, “The overall purpose of this book is to acquaint the reader with the historical factors behind the formulation of Islamic law (Fiqh), in order that he or she may better understand how and why the various schools of Islamic law (Madh-habs) came about. It is hoped that this understanding will in turn, provide a basis for overcoming the petty differences and divisions which occur when present-day followers of different schools of people without definite schools try to work together. Thus, another aim of this book is to provide a theoretical framework for the reunification of the Madhhabs and an ideological basis for Islamic community work free from the divisive effects of Madh-hab factionalism.” The book consists of six chapters: foundation, establishment, building, flowing, consolidation, and stagnation and decline.

Women Around The Messenger (Peace Be Upon Him)This is the "women's lib" age as the West preform to term it. But is it true? Is it not a lip-service age turning women practically to "dolls" or something like "real-life dolls"? Women entering the fold of Islam played an enviable prominent role, side by side their counterparts, in shaping and developing the Muslim society as a model from the onset, emancipating humanity, men and women, from the shackles of deep-rooted ignorance. Women in Islam have a very special place, status, and dignity that is unknown to mankind before or after. The women in this book are listed in categories, such as "Mothers of the Prophet", "Wives of the Prophet", "The Prophet's Daughters", and many more categories.

Rules of Purification and PrayersSalaat (Prayer) is one of the main obligations which Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) has ordained on His servants. It is the first act of worship decreed on the Muslim Nation (Ummah) by Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) and was ordained on the night of the Prophet’s (peace be upon him) ascension to the seven heavens. It is the second of the five pillars of Islam after the proclamation of the “Shahada” (the words of witness).

Say as universe says Laa ilaaha illa AllaahIntroduction to history of polytheism and monotheism: Allah (glory be to him) created all people as Muslims and monotheists but devils came to them and changed and distorted their religion. Allah said in a qudsi hadith, “I created all my slaves as haneefs (monotheists), but the devils came to them, made them deviate from their religion, forbade them that which I had permitted to them, and commanded them to join partners with me for which I has given no authority.” As soon as people commit a type of polytheism, Allah sends his prophets to call them to the suitable type of monotheism.
