Qur'an 20110201

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

79. Then woe to those who write the Book with their own hands, and then say, "This is from Allah," to traffic with it for a miserable price! Woe to them for what their hands do write, and for the gain they make thereby.

80. And they say, "The Fire shall not touch us but for a few numbered days." Say, "Have you taken a promise from Allah, for God never breaks a Promise? Or is it you say of Allah what you do not know?"

81. No, those who seek gain in evil, and are girt round by their sins- they are companions of the Fire: therein shall they abide."

The Heifer 2:79-81

Qur'an 20110118

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

1. Say, "I seek refuge with the Lord and Cherisher of mankind,

2. The Ruler of mankind,

3. The God of mankind,

4. From the mischief of the Whisperer, who withdraws,

5. Who whispers into the hearts of mankind,

6. Among Jinns, and among men."

Mankind 114:1-6
---------------------------------------------------------
This chapter wraps up the Qur'an as we know it today, with a summary of existence: humans (and Jinns) are in conflict with Satan, until Judgment Day.

Beginning tomorrow, I will loop back to chapter 1. I turn one page a day (of my rather large Divine Scripture with english translation) for my daily reading. The Qur'an is Perfect, regardless.

Qur'an 20110117

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

1. Say,"I seek refuge with the Lord of the Dawn,"

2. "From the mischief of created things,"

3. "From the mischief of darkness as it overspreads,"

4. "From the mischief of those who practise secret arts,"

5. "And from the mischief of the envious one as he practises envy."

The Daybreak 113:1-5

Qur'an 20110116

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

1. Say, "God is Allah, the One and Only."

2. "Allah, the Eternal, Absolute."

3. "God begetteth not, nor is God begotten."

4. "And there is none like unto God."

The Purity of Faith 112:1-4
--------------------------------------------------------
Sincerity. How sincere are you in your relationship with God?

Do you conduct your religion mostly for the sake of conforming?

Do you conduct your religion mostly for the sake of being seen by other people?

Qur'an 20110113

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

1. Say, "O ye who reject Faith!"

2. I worship not that which you worship,

3. Nor will you worship that which I worship,

4. And I will not worship that which you have been wont to worship,

5. Nor will you worship that which I worship.

6. To you be your way, and to me, mine.
