| U must focus!! Imam Ali says: Praise be to Allah who knows the hidden secrets of things, and clear sighns point to him. He cannot be seen by the eye of an onlooker, yet the eye of one who does not see him does not deny him. The mind that proves his existence cannot perceive him. He has preceded everything in sublimity, nothing is more sublime than he. He is so close nothinge is closer than him. His sublimity does not alienate him from his creation nor does his closeness bring them on an equal level to him. He has not informed the intellect about the restrictions to his attributes, and he has not prevented it from knowing what is essential to know about him. The signs of existence bear testimony to him to the extent that the mind which denies him also believes in him. Allah is beyond what those who liken him to other things or those who deny him, say about him. Praise be to Allah, for whom one condition does not precede another so that he maybe the first before being the last or that he may be manifest before being hidden. Apare from him, everything called unigue is [actually] little. Apart from him, everything honourable is meek, everything powerful is weak,every owner is a slave. Apart from him, every scholar is a student, every one with ability is disabled and weak, every listener other than him is deaf to light voices while loud voices make him deaf and distant voices are remote from him. Apart from him, everyone that seesis blind to hidden colours and delicate bodies. Apart from him, everymanifest thing is hidden, every inner thing apart from hime is manifest. He did not create what he did to strengthen his authority nor due to fear of time nor to seek help against an equally aggressive partner or hateful opponent. Rather, all creatures are nurtured by him and are his humble slaves. He does not enter into anything so that it can be said that he is away from it. The creation that he created or the administration of what he ccontrols did not tire him. No disability overtook him for what he created. No misgivings ever occured to him in what he ordained and resolved. His verdict is certain, His knowledge definite, His governance overwhelming. Even in ditress, He is the centre of hope and, despite all the bounties, He is to be feard". | | |

| Salaam Alaikum,
My name is Omar aka Focuz and it's 1 am and i'm taking forever to make up my page.
AL-WAQIA (THE EVENT, THE INEVITABLE)
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful.
056.001
When the Event inevitable cometh to pass,
056.002
Then will no (soul) entertain falsehood concerning its coming.
056.003
(Many) will it bring low; (many) will it exalt;
056.004
When the earth shall be shaken to its depths,
056.005
And the mountains shall be crumbled to atoms,
056.006
Becoming dust scattered abroad,
056.007
And ye shall be sorted out into three classes.
056.008
Then (there will be) the Companions of the Right Hand;- What will be the Companions of the Right Hand?
056.009
And the Companions of the Left Hand,- what will be the Companions of the Left Hand?
056.010
And those Foremost (in Faith) will be Foremost (in the Hereafter).
056.011
These will be those Nearest to Allah:
056.012
In Gardens of Bliss:
056.013
A number of people from those of old,
056.014
And a few from those of later times.
056.015
(They will be) on Thrones encrusted (with gold and precious stones),
056.016
Reclining on them, facing each other.
056.017
Round about them will (serve) youths of perpetual (freshness),
056.018
With goblets, (shining) beakers, and cups (filled) out of clear-flowing fountains:
056.019
No after-ache will they receive therefrom, nor will they suffer intoxication:
056.020
And with fruits, any that they may select:
056.021
And the flesh of fowls, any that they may desire.
056.022
And (there will be) Companions with beautiful, big, and lustrous eyes,-
056.023
Like unto Pearls well-guarded.
056.024
A Reward for the deeds of their past (life).
056.025
Not frivolity will they hear therein, nor any taint of ill,-
056.026
Only the saying, "Peace! Peace".
056.027
The Companions of the Right Hand,- what will be the Companions of the Right Hand?
056.028
(They will be) among Lote-trees without thorns,
056.029
Among Talh trees with flowers (or fruits) piled one above another,-
056.030
In shade long-extended,
056.031
By water flowing constantly,
056.032
And fruit in abundance.
056.033
Whose season is not limited, nor (supply) forbidden,
056.034
And on Thrones (of Dignity), raised high.
056.035
We have created (their Companions) of special creation.
056.036
And made them virgin - pure (and undefiled), -
056.037
Beloved (by nature), equal in age,-
056.038
For the Companions of the Right Hand.
056.039
A (goodly) number from those of old,
056.040
And a (goodly) number from those of later times.
056.041
The Companions of the Left Hand,- what will be the Companions of the Left Hand?
056.042
(They will be) in the midst of a Fierce Blast of Fire and in Boiling Water,
056.043
And in the shades of Black Smoke:
056.044
Nothing (will there be) to refresh, nor to please:
056.045
For that they were wont to be indulged, before that, in wealth (and luxury),
056.046
And persisted obstinately in wickedness supreme!
056.047
And they used to say, "What! when we die and become dust and bones, shall we then indeed be raised up again?-
056.048
"(We) and our fathers of old?"
056.049
Say: "Yea, those of old and those of later times,
056.050
"All will certainly be gathered together for the meeting appointed for a Day well-known.
056.051
"Then will ye truly,- O ye that go wrong, and treat (Truth) as Falsehood!-
056.052
"Ye will surely taste of the Tree of Zaqqum.
056.053
"Then will ye fill your insides therewith,
056.054
"And drink Boiling Water on top of it:
056.055
"Indeed ye shall drink like diseased camels raging with thirst!"
056.056
Such will be their entertainment on the Day of Requital!
056.057
It is We Who have created you: why will ye not witness the Truth?
056.058
Do ye then see?- The (human Seed) that ye throw out,-
056.059
Is it ye who create it, or are We the Creators?
056.060
We have decreed Death to be your common lot, and We are not to be frustrated
056.061
from changing your Forms and creating you (again) in (forms) that ye know not.
056.062
And ye certainly know already the first form of creation: why then do ye not celebrate His praises?
056.063
See ye the seed that ye sow in the ground?
056.064
Is it ye that cause it to grow, or are We the Cause?
056.065
Were it Our Will, We could crumble it to dry powder, and ye would be left in wonderment,
056.066
(Saying), "We are indeed left with debts (for nothing):
056.067
"Indeed are we shut out (of the fruits of our labour)"
056.068 See ye the water which ye drink?
056.069
Do ye bring it down (in rain) from the cloud or do We?
056.070
Were it Our Will, We could make it salt (and unpalatable): then why do ye not give thanks?
056.071
See ye the Fire which ye kindle?
056.072
Is it ye who grow the tree which feeds the fire, or do We grow it?
056.073
We have made it a memorial (of Our handiwork), and an article of comfort and convenience for the denizens of deserts.
056.074
Then celebrate with praises the name of thy Lord, the Supreme!
056.075
Furthermore I call to witness the setting of the Stars,-
056.076
And that is indeed a mighty adjuration if ye but knew,-
056.077
That this is indeed a qur'an Most Honourable,
056.078
In Book well-guarded,
056.079
Which none shall touch but those who are clean:
056.080
A Revelation from the Lord of the Worlds.
056.081
Is it such a Message that ye would hold in light esteem?
056.082
And have ye made it your livelihood that ye should declare it false?
056.083
Then why do ye not (intervene) when (the soul of the dying man) reaches the throat,-
056.084
And ye the while (sit) looking on,-
056.085
But We are nearer to him than ye, and yet see not,-
056.086
Then why do ye not,- If you are exempt from (future) account,-
056.087
Call back the soul, if ye are true (in the claim of independence)?
056.088
Thus, then, if he be of those Nearest to Allah,
056.089
(There is for him) Rest and Satisfaction, and a Garden of Delights.
056.090
And if he be of the Companions of the Right Hand,
056.091(For him is the salutation), "Peace be unto thee", from the Companions of the Right Hand.
056.092
And if he be of those who treat (Truth) as Falsehood, who go wrong,
056.093
For him is Entertainment with Boiling Water.
056.094
And burning in Hell-Fire.
056.095
Verily, this is the Very Truth and Certainly.
056.096
So celebrate with praises the name of thy Lord, the Supreme.
