Sorah At-Tariq ( The Night-Comer ) - Verses Number 17

وَالسَّمَاءِ وَالطَّارِقِ ( 1 )

By the sky and the night comer -

وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا الطَّارِقُ ( 2 )

And what can make you know what is the night comer?

النَّجْمُ الثَّاقِبُ ( 3 )

It is the piercing star -

إِن كُلُّ نَفْسٍ لَّمَّا عَلَيْهَا حَافِظٌ ( 4 )

There is no soul but that it has over it a protector.

فَلْيَنظُرِ الْإِنسَانُ مِمَّ خُلِقَ ( 5 )

So let man observe from what he was created.

خُلِقَ مِن مَّاءٍ دَافِقٍ ( 6 )

He was created from a fluid, ejected,

يَخْرُجُ مِن بَيْنِ الصُّلْبِ وَالتَّرَائِبِ ( 7 )

Emerging from between the backbone and the ribs.

إِنَّهُ عَلَىٰ رَجْعِهِ لَقَادِرٌ ( 8 )

Indeed, Allah, to return him [to life], is Able.

يَوْمَ تُبْلَى السَّرَائِرُ ( 9 )

The Day when secrets will be put on trial,

فَمَا لَهُ مِن قُوَّةٍ وَلَا نَاصِرٍ ( 10 )

Then man will have no power or any helper.

وَالسَّمَاءِ ذَاتِ الرَّجْعِ ( 11 )

By the sky which returns [rain]

وَالْأَرْضِ ذَاتِ الصَّدْعِ ( 12 )

And [by] the earth which cracks open,

إِنَّهُ لَقَوْلٌ فَصْلٌ ( 13 )

Indeed, the Qur'an is a decisive statement,

وَمَا هُوَ بِالْهَزْلِ ( 14 )

And it is not amusement.

إِنَّهُمْ يَكِيدُونَ كَيْدًا ( 15 )

Indeed, they are planning a plan,

وَأَكِيدُ كَيْدًا ( 16 )

But I am planning a plan.

فَمَهِّلِ الْكَافِرِينَ أَمْهِلْهُمْ رُوَيْدًا ( 17 )

So allow time for the disbelievers. Leave them awhile.

Humility in PrayerIbn Rajab al-Hanbali This is a treatise we have written concerning humility (Khushu') and the hearts meekness and breaking (inkisar) before the Lord. The basic meaning of Khushu', is the softness of the heart, its being gentle, still, submissive, broken, and yearning. When the heart is humble, so too is the hearing, seeing, heard, and face; indeed all the limbs and their actions are humbled, even speech. The source of the Khushu, that takes place in the heart is the gnosis of Allah's greatness, magnificence, and perfection.

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.
