In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.
Hi Julia, my beloved young bride! It's been a busy Friday for me, doing mundane things. I started the morning growling and swearing, though I normally don't bitch so much, because it took me forever to get out the door. I'm just not a morning person. Then, I was drowning in a sea of cats. MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW etc. Since I can't go to town on Friday because of Friday prayer, I decided to do some house cleaning for my parents, so as to cut my Sunday workload in half, so as not to get a heart attack trying to get all the Sunday work done before voice training at 2pm. Why must I do voice training at the same time everyday, you may ask? Because I'm trying to create a tourist attraction, that's why. But I just can't hang with all the laundry and ironing. I hate laundry and ironing. It hurts my feet. Bat Cat hates my feet. He keeps attacking them, and I don't blame him. My feet are trashed. What to eat? Leftovers, which I usually have plenty of, because I always cook for us, because I love you. It's been a busy Friday, just doing stuff. I just finished mending my pants. That's another thing I'm bad at, besides house cleaning, laundry, and ironing, is sewing. I can't hold a needle and thread without tensing up. I'm afraid you rule the rag trade in the family, my dearest Julia.

Qur'an 20120922
In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.
2. The revelation of the Book is from Allah, the Exalted in Power, full of Wisdom.
3. We created not the heavens and the earth, and all between them but for just ends, and for a term appointed. But those who reject Faith turn away from that whereof they are warned.
4. Say, "Do you see what it is you invoke besides Allah? Show me what it is they have created on earth, or have they a share in the heavens? Bring me a Book before this, or any remnant of knowledge, if you are telling the truth!"
5. And who is more astray than one who invokes, besides Allah, such as will not answer him on the Day of Judgment, and who are unconscious of their call?
6. And when mankind are gathered together, they will be hostile to them, and reject their worship.
7. When Our Clear Signs are rehearsed to them, the unbelievers say of the Truth when it comes to them, "This is nothing but evident sorcery!"
8. Or do they say, "He has forged it"? Say, "Had I forged it, then can you obtain nothing for me from Allah. God knows best whereof you talk! Enough is God for a witness between me and you! And God is Oft-Forgiving, most Merciful."
9. Say, "I am no bringer of new doctrine among the messengers, nor do I know what will be done with me, or with you. I follow that which is revealed to me by inspiration. I am but a Warner, open and clear."
10 Say, "Do you see? If this be from Allah, and you reject it, and a witness from among the Children of Israel testifies to its similarity, and has believed while you are arrogant. Truly, Allah guides not a people unjust."
Winding sand-tracts 46:2-10

In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.
22. Allah created the heavens and the earth for just ends, and in order that each soul may find the recompense of what it has earned, and none of them be wronged.
23. Then do you see such a one that takes as his god his own vain desire? Allah has knowingly left him astray, and sealed his hearing and his heart, and put a cover on his sight. Who then, will guide him after Allah? Will you not then receive admonition?
24. And they say, "What is there but the life of this world? We shall die and we live, and nothing but time can destroy us." But of that they have no knowledge: they merely conjecture.
25. And when Our Clear Signs are rehearsed to them, their argument is nothing but this: they say, "Bring our
forefathers, if what you say is true!"
26. Say, "It is Allah who gives you life, then gives you death. Then God will gather you together for the Day of Judgment about which there is no doubt." But most men do not understand.
