وَإِذَا الْبِحَارُ فُجِّرَتْ ( 3 )

When the Oceans are suffered to burst forth;

وَإِذَا الْقُبُورُ بُعْثِرَتْ ( 4 )

And when the Graves are turned upside down;-

عَلِمَتْ نَفْسٌ مَّا قَدَّمَتْ وَأَخَّرَتْ ( 5 )

(Then) shall each soul know what it hath sent forward and (what it hath) kept back.

يَا أَيُّهَا الْإِنسَانُ مَا غَرَّكَ بِرَبِّكَ الْكَرِيمِ ( 6 )

O man! What has seduced thee from thy Lord Most Beneficent?-

الَّذِي خَلَقَكَ فَسَوَّاكَ فَعَدَلَكَ ( 7 )

Him Who created thee. Fashioned thee in due proportion, and gave thee a just bias;

فِي أَيِّ صُورَةٍ مَّا شَاءَ رَكَّبَكَ ( 8 )

In whatever Form He wills, does He put thee together.

كَلَّا بَلْ تُكَذِّبُونَ بِالدِّينِ ( 9 )

Nay! But ye do reject Right and Judgment!

وَإِنَّ عَلَيْكُمْ لَحَافِظِينَ ( 10 )

But verily over you (are appointed angels) to protect you,-

كِرَامًا كَاتِبِينَ ( 11 )

Kind and honourable,- Writing down (your deeds):

يَعْلَمُونَ مَا تَفْعَلُونَ ( 12 )

They know (and understand) all that ye do.

إِنَّ الْأَبْرَارَ لَفِي نَعِيمٍ ( 13 )

As for the Righteous, they will be in bliss;

وَإِنَّ الْفُجَّارَ لَفِي جَحِيمٍ ( 14 )

And the Wicked - they will be in the Fire,

يَصْلَوْنَهَا يَوْمَ الدِّينِ ( 15 )

Which they will enter on the Day of Judgment,

وَمَا هُمْ عَنْهَا بِغَائِبِينَ ( 16 )

And they will not be able to keep away therefrom.

وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا يَوْمُ الدِّينِ ( 17 )

And what will explain to thee what the Day of Judgment is?

ثُمَّ مَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا يَوْمُ الدِّينِ ( 18 )

Again, what will explain to thee what the Day of Judgment is?

يَوْمَ لَا تَمْلِكُ نَفْسٌ لِّنَفْسٍ شَيْئًا ۖ وَالْأَمْرُ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلَّهِ ( 19 )

(It will be) the Day when no soul shall have power (to do) aught for another: For the command, that Day, will be (wholly) with Allah.

Letter to the West - A Saudi ViewThis book was prepared by a group of Saudi scholars and intellectuals. They address Western mind which looks at fair truth and objective and convincing dialogue. The book, in general, discusses the most important issues and suspicions raised by Western political and media organizations in the aftermath of September 11, 2001 events. These events have placed Islam, the Kingdom, its people, and its religious, educational and social institutions in a position that requires correction and review. The book is a moderate vision in responding to the issues and suspicions. A biased reader would notice the major difference between the reality and the raised concepts and images which were far from the reality.

Praying Eid in the Musallaa is the SunnahPraying 'Eid in the Musallaa is the Sunnah: there is great and profound wisdom behind this Sunnah – the Sunnah of praying in an open area of land. And it is that: The Muslims will have two days of the year where all the people of every city can gather together – whether men, women or children - and turn towards Allaah with their hearts in unity, praying behind one Imaam, making the Takbeer, the Tahleel and supplicating to Allaah sincerely together, as if they were united upon the heart of one man, happy and joyous about the blessing Allaah has bestowed on them. So the Eid will truly be an occasion of celebration for them.
