Qur'an 20111201

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

99. See they not that Allah, who created the heavens and the earth, has power to create the likes of them? Only God has decreed a term appointed, of which there is no doubt. But the unjust refuse except with ingratitude.

100. Say, "If you had control of the Treasures of the Mercy of my Lord, behold! You would keep them back for fear of spending them, for humans are selfish!"

(The Night Journey 99-100)

106. A Qur'an which We have divided, in order that you might recite it to humans in intervals: We have revealed it in stages.

107. Say, "Whether you believe in it or not, it is true that those who were given knowledge beforehand, when it is recited to them, fall down on their faces in humble prostration."

108. And they say, "Glory to our Lord! Truly has the promise of our Lord has been fulfilled!"

109. They fall down on their faces in tears, and it increases their humility.

110. Say, "Call upon Allah, or call upon the Compassionate One. By whatever name you call upon God, for to God belong the Most Beautiful Names. Neither speak your prayer aloud, nor speak it in a low tone, but seek a middle course between."

111. Say, "Praise be to Allah, who begets no son, and has no partner in dominion, nor any to protect God from humiliation. Yea, magnify God, for God's Greatness and Glory!"

(The Night Journey 17:106-111)

Call upon Allah, or call upon the Compassionate One. By whatever name you call upon God, for to God belong the Most Beautiful Names. Neither speak your prayer aloud, nor speak it in a low tone, but seek a middle course between.

Praise be to Allah, who begets no son, and has no partner in dominion, nor any to protect God from humiliation. Yea, magnify God, for God's Greatness and Glory!
