Sorah Al-'alaq ( The Clot ) - Verses Number 19
اقْرَأْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّكَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ ( 1 ) 
Recite in the name of your Lord who created -
خَلَقَ الْإِنسَانَ مِنْ عَلَقٍ ( 2 )
Created man from a clinging substance.
اقْرَأْ وَرَبُّكَ الْأَكْرَمُ ( 3 )
Recite, and your Lord is the most Generous -
الَّذِي عَلَّمَ بِالْقَلَمِ ( 4 )
Who taught by the pen -
عَلَّمَ الْإِنسَانَ مَا لَمْ يَعْلَمْ ( 5 )
Taught man that which he knew not.
كَلَّا إِنَّ الْإِنسَانَ لَيَطْغَىٰ ( 6 )
No! [But] indeed, man transgresses
أَن رَّآهُ اسْتَغْنَىٰ ( 7 )
Because he sees himself self-sufficient.
إِنَّ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ الرُّجْعَىٰ ( 8 )
Indeed, to your Lord is the return.
أَرَأَيْتَ الَّذِي يَنْهَىٰ ( 9 )
Have you seen the one who forbids
عَبْدًا إِذَا صَلَّىٰ ( 10 )
A servant when he prays?
أَرَأَيْتَ إِن كَانَ عَلَى الْهُدَىٰ ( 11 )
Have you seen if he is upon guidance
أَوْ أَمَرَ بِالتَّقْوَىٰ ( 12 )
Or enjoins righteousness?
أَرَأَيْتَ إِن كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ ( 13 )
Have you seen if he denies and turns away -
أَلَمْ يَعْلَم بِأَنَّ اللَّهَ يَرَىٰ ( 14 )
Does he not know that Allah sees?
كَلَّا لَئِن لَّمْ يَنتَهِ لَنَسْفَعًا بِالنَّاصِيَةِ ( 15 )
No! If he does not desist, We will surely drag him by the forelock -
نَاصِيَةٍ كَاذِبَةٍ خَاطِئَةٍ ( 16 )
A lying, sinning forelock.
فَلْيَدْعُ نَادِيَهُ ( 17 )
Then let him call his associates;
سَنَدْعُ الزَّبَانِيَةَ ( 18 )
We will call the angels of Hell.
كَلَّا لَا تُطِعْهُ وَاسْجُدْ وَاقْتَرِب ۩ ( 19 )
No! Do not obey him. But prostrate and draw near [to Allah].

- Knowledge Mandates ActionIqtidaa-ul-‘Ilm al-‘Amal By Al-Khateeb Al-Baghdaadee. This is the second book in the "Classical Knowledge Series", which is a collection of selected scholarly works from the past that deal with the subject of religious knowledge. The first book in this blessed series was “The Book of Knowledge” written by Imaam Abu Khaithamah Zuhayr bin Harb An-Nasaa’ee (Died 234H), may Allah have mercy on him. Since that book served as an introduction to knowledge, its virtues, merits and manners, it seemed proper that the second book be dedicated to the next level of knowledge, which is its result and outcome, and that is righteous deeds. And what better work to present on this subject than the classic and well-known treatise of the distinguished Imaam, Al-Khateeb Al-Baghdaadee, 'Iqtidaa-ul-‘Ilm al-‘Amal' (Knowledge Mandates Action).

- Response on Misconceptions about the Ruling of Celebrating the Birthday of the ProphetThis is a medium response to one Yemenite Sufi whose name is Al-Habeeb Ibn 'Ali Al-Jafri. In his most recent tape entitled ''The Objectives of a Female Believer and Her Example in Life'', he mentioned that the celebration of the Prophet's, sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam, birthday is permissible. He provided evidence from the Quran and the Sunnah (of the Prophet, sallalaahu 'alayhi wa salam) -as he claims- and he confused the ordinary listener with this evidence.
