Sorah Al-Burooj ( The Big Stars ) - Verses Number 22
وَالسَّمَاءِ ذَاتِ الْبُرُوجِ ( 1 ) 
By the sky, (displaying) the Zodiacal Signs;
وَالْيَوْمِ الْمَوْعُودِ ( 2 )
By the promised Day (of Judgment);
وَشَاهِدٍ وَمَشْهُودٍ ( 3 )
By one that witnesses, and the subject of the witness;-
قُتِلَ أَصْحَابُ الْأُخْدُودِ ( 4 )
Woe to the makers of the pit (of fire),
النَّارِ ذَاتِ الْوَقُودِ ( 5 )
Fire supplied (abundantly) with fuel:
إِذْ هُمْ عَلَيْهَا قُعُودٌ ( 6 )
Behold! they sat over against the (fire),
وَهُمْ عَلَىٰ مَا يَفْعَلُونَ بِالْمُؤْمِنِينَ شُهُودٌ ( 7 )
And they witnessed (all) that they were doing against the Believers.
وَمَا نَقَمُوا مِنْهُمْ إِلَّا أَن يُؤْمِنُوا بِاللَّهِ الْعَزِيزِ الْحَمِيدِ ( 8 )
And they ill-treated them for no other reason than that they believed in Allah, Exalted in Power, Worthy of all Praise!-
الَّذِي لَهُ مُلْكُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ ۚ وَاللَّهُ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ شَهِيدٌ ( 9 )
Him to Whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth! And Allah is Witness to all things.
إِنَّ الَّذِينَ فَتَنُوا الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَالْمُؤْمِنَاتِ ثُمَّ لَمْ يَتُوبُوا فَلَهُمْ عَذَابُ جَهَنَّمَ وَلَهُمْ عَذَابُ الْحَرِيقِ ( 10 )
Those who persecute (or draw into temptation) the Believers, men and women, and do not turn in repentance, will have the Penalty of Hell: They will have the Penalty of the Burning Fire.
إِنَّ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ لَهُمْ جَنَّاتٌ تَجْرِي مِن تَحْتِهَا الْأَنْهَارُ ۚ ذَٰلِكَ الْفَوْزُ الْكَبِيرُ ( 11 )
For those who believe and do righteous deeds, will be Gardens; beneath which rivers flow: That is the great Salvation, (the fulfilment of all desires),
إِنَّ بَطْشَ رَبِّكَ لَشَدِيدٌ ( 12 )
Truly strong is the Grip (and Power) of thy Lord.
إِنَّهُ هُوَ يُبْدِئُ وَيُعِيدُ ( 13 )
It is He Who creates from the very beginning, and He can restore (life).
وَهُوَ الْغَفُورُ الْوَدُودُ ( 14 )
And He is the Oft-Forgiving, Full of Loving-Kindness,
ذُو الْعَرْشِ الْمَجِيدُ ( 15 )
Lord of the Throne of Glory,
فَعَّالٌ لِّمَا يُرِيدُ ( 16 )
Doer (without let) of all that He intends.
هَلْ أَتَاكَ حَدِيثُ الْجُنُودِ ( 17 )
Has the story reached thee, of the forces-
فِرْعَوْنَ وَثَمُودَ ( 18 )
Of Pharaoh and the Thamud?
بَلِ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا فِي تَكْذِيبٍ ( 19 )
And yet the Unbelievers (persist) in rejecting (the Truth)!
وَاللَّهُ مِن وَرَائِهِم مُّحِيطٌ ( 20 )
But Allah doth encompass them from behind!
بَلْ هُوَ قُرْآنٌ مَّجِيدٌ ( 21 )
Day, this is a Glorious Qur'an,
فِي لَوْحٍ مَّحْفُوظٍ ( 22 )
(Inscribed) in a Tablet Preserved!

- Etiquettes of a Muslim on FridayMany people are unaware of what the etiquette of a Muslim on Friday should be and most are unaware of its significance. Most do not consider the Friday Prayer as obligatory, hence they miss it intentionally. Many people in Islamic countries are on holiday on this day, so then spend their time sleeping, or in other activities that cause them to neglect the Friday prayer altogether. They do not realise the significance of the Friday Prayer and its sermon, and they come to the mosque according to their own wishes and desire. Most of them are unaware of what is required from a Muslim before or after the Friday Prayer. It is with these concerns in mind that this book has been written.

- The Rights of ParentsIslam recognizes family as a basic social unit. Along with the husband-wife relationship the Parent-child relationship is the most important one. To maintain any social relationship both parties must have some clear-cut Rights as well as obligations. The relationships are reciprocal. Duties of one side are the Rights of the other side. So in Parent-child relationship the Rights of parents are the obligations (duties) of the children and vice versa, the Rights of children are obligations (duties) of parents.
