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).

Religious Freedom in Saudi ArabiaThe annual Religious Freedom Reports released by US State Department often include sections about religious freedom in Saudi Arabia. These reports are officially distributed by the State Department and then circulated amongst the centers of research in the West as well as the international media outlets and other channels. Saudi Arabia comes on top of concern of those involved in these reports, due to its religious and political significance. Accordingly, it becomes incumbent on us, as Saudis, to discuss the sections in these reports which cover religious freedom in our country and provide facts that are not included in these reports. While discussing these reports, we should explain to the world our view point vis-à-vis these reports. We should also allow the reader to discover the truth as stated therein and according to criteria upon which many fair-minded, rational people agreed with us.

The Life, Teachings and Influence of Muhammad ibn Abdul-WahhaabThe Life, Teachings and Influence of Muhammad ibn Abdul-Wahhaab: This book is not one with a political agenda. It is meant neither to support nor to critique any contemporary regimes or policies. Indeed, the driving force behind this work is much greater and more important than that. It has to do with, first, the religion of Islam as preached by the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) himself and, second, with the honor and rights of an individual Muslim, Muhammad ibn Abdul-Wahhaab.
