Qur'an 20100925

In the name of Allah. most Gracious, most Merciful.

5. Has not the story reached you, of those who rejected Faith aforetime? So they tasted the evil result of their conduct, and they had a grievous Penalty.

6. That was because there came to them messengers with Clear Signs, but they said: "Shall human beings direct us?" So they rejected and turned away, but Allah can do without: and Allah is Free of all needs, Worthy of all praise.

7. The unbelievers think that they will not be raised up. Say, "Yea, by my Lord, you shall surely be raised up. Then you shall be told of all that you did, and that is easy for Allah."

The mutual loss and gain 64:7-9

Yea, by my Lord, you shall surely be raised up. Then you shall be told of all that you did, and that is easy for Allah.

Qur'an 20100920

In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

5. The similitude of those who were charged with the Mosaic Law, but who subsequently failed in those, is that of a donkey which carries huge tomes. Evil is the similitude of people who falsify the Signs of Allah; and Allah guides not people who do wrong.

6. Say, "O you who stand on Judaism! If you think you are friends to Allah, to the exclusion of mankind, then express your desire for death, if you are truthful!"

7. But never will they express their desire, because of what their hands have sent on before them! And Allah knows well those who do wrong!

8. Say, "The death from which you flee will truly overtake you. Then will you be sent back to the Knower of things secret and open, and God will tell you the things that you did!"

9. O you who believe! When prayer is proclaimed on Friday, hasten earnestly to the Remembrance of Allah and leave off business. That is best for you, if you only knew!

10. And when the prayer is finished, then you may disperse through the land, and seek of the Bounty of Allah often, that you may prosper!

11. But when they see some bargain or some amusement,they disperse headlong to it, and leave thee standing. Say, "That from the Presence of Allah is better than any amusement or bargain! And Allah is the Best to provide!"
