[Furqan 25:56] And We have not sent you (O dear Prophet Mohammed - peace and blessings be upon him) except as a Herald of glad tidings and warnings. [Furqan 25:57] Proclaim, “I do not ask any fee from you for this, except that whoever wills may take the way to his Lord.” [Furqan 25:58] And trust the Living One Who will never die, and praising Him proclaim His Purity; and He is Sufficient upon the sins of His bondmen, All Aware. [Furqan 25:59] The One Who created the heavens and the earth and all that is between them in six days, then (befitting His Majesty) established Himself upon the Throne (of control); the Most Gracious – therefore ask the one who knows, concerning Him! [Furqan 25:60] And when it is said to them, “Prostrate to the Most Gracious” - they say, “And what is the Most Gracious? Shall we prostrate to whatever you command us?” And this command only increases the hatred in them. (Command of Prostration # 7)
Section 6 [Furqan 25:61] Most Auspicious is He Who created lofty towers in the sky and placed a lamp in it, and the luminous moon. [Furqan 25:62] And it is He Who created the alternation of the night and day for one who wishes to remember or intends to give thanks. [Furqan 25:63] And the bondmen of the Most Gracious who walk upon the earth humbly, and when the ignorant address them they answer, “Peace”. (Good –bye) [Furqan 25:64] And who spend the night prostrating and standing, for their Lord. [Furqan 25:65] And who submit, “Our Lord - avert the punishment of hell from us; indeed its punishment is a permanent neck-shackle.” [Furqan 25:66] Indeed it is a most wretched abode. [Furqan 25:67] And those who, when spending, neither exceed
the limits nor act miserly, and stay in moderation between the two. |
