Qur'an 20181009

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

215.  They ask you what they should spend.  Say, "Whatever you spend that is good, is for parents, and kindred, and orphans, and those in want, and for wayfarers, and whatever you do that is good: Allah knows it well."

216.  Fighting is prescribed upon you, and you dislike it.  But it is possible that you dislike a thing which is good for you, and that you love a thing which is bad for you.  But Allah knows, and you know not.

217.  They ask you concerning fighting in the Prohibited Month.  Say, "Fighting therein is grievous, but graver it is in the Sight of Allah to prevent access to the path of Allah, to deny God, to prevent access to the Sacred Mosque, and drive out its members.  Tumult and oppression are worse than slaughter, nor will they cease fighting you until they turn you back from your faith if they can.  And if any of you turn back from their faith and die in unbelief, their works will bear no fruit in this life and in the Hereafter:  they will be companions of the fire, and will abide therein."

218.  Those who believed, and those who suffered exile and fought in the Path of Allah: they have the Mercy of Allah.  And Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.

Someone has to do it

Hi Natty honey!  How are you feeling, my beautiful Princess?  Wow, it sure looks like you are having fun, exploring and checking out live music.  If I were there, I would be doing that myself, going to concerts, searching for great new bands.  It's important for me/us to do so, to find great new music instead of having to consume the same old crap forced down our throats by the arrogant who think they are the power.  I have never asked to you to do this, because it is a dangerous task, so please take care.  It looks like you are very global, what with an Asian and a Black girlfriends accompanying you.  In fact, it almost seems like a show in itself...  Don't be so close to the speaker!  You will lose your hearing!  Especially with those bass frequencies.  It should plenty loud enough anywhere else in the room.  Keep the volume down on headphones, too.  I find that a single 6" speaker like in a guitar practice amp is most comfortable for loud listening.  You can put it right at your face and turn it up, and it won't hurt your ears.  Anyway, I hope you have tons of fun exploring, try to dress well all of you, and guard your chastity.  It's worth billions, and worth much more that besides big business.  I'm going to prepare my dinner now.  I'm going to make some curry pups.  Want some?
