Sorah At-Tariq ( The Night-Comer ) - Verses Number 17
وَالسَّمَاءِ وَالطَّارِقِ ( 1 ) 
By the Sky and the Night-Visitant (therein);-
وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا الطَّارِقُ ( 2 )
And what will explain to thee what the Night-Visitant is?-
النَّجْمُ الثَّاقِبُ ( 3 )
(It is) the Star of piercing brightness;-
إِن كُلُّ نَفْسٍ لَّمَّا عَلَيْهَا حَافِظٌ ( 4 )
There is no soul but has a protector over it.
فَلْيَنظُرِ الْإِنسَانُ مِمَّ خُلِقَ ( 5 )
Now let man but think from what he is created!
خُلِقَ مِن مَّاءٍ دَافِقٍ ( 6 )
He is created from a drop emitted-
يَخْرُجُ مِن بَيْنِ الصُّلْبِ وَالتَّرَائِبِ ( 7 )
Proceeding from between the backbone and the ribs:
إِنَّهُ عَلَىٰ رَجْعِهِ لَقَادِرٌ ( 8 )
Surely (Allah) is able to bring him back (to life)!
يَوْمَ تُبْلَى السَّرَائِرُ ( 9 )
The Day that (all) things secret will be tested,
فَمَا لَهُ مِن قُوَّةٍ وَلَا نَاصِرٍ ( 10 )
(Man) will have no power, and no helper.
وَالسَّمَاءِ ذَاتِ الرَّجْعِ ( 11 )
By the Firmament which returns (in its round),
وَالْأَرْضِ ذَاتِ الصَّدْعِ ( 12 )
And by the Earth which opens out (for the gushing of springs or the sprouting of vegetation),-
إِنَّهُ لَقَوْلٌ فَصْلٌ ( 13 )
Behold this is the Word that distinguishes (Good from Evil):
وَمَا هُوَ بِالْهَزْلِ ( 14 )
It is not a thing for amusement.
إِنَّهُمْ يَكِيدُونَ كَيْدًا ( 15 )
As for them, they are but plotting a scheme,
وَأَكِيدُ كَيْدًا ( 16 )
And I am planning a scheme.
فَمَهِّلِ الْكَافِرِينَ أَمْهِلْهُمْ رُوَيْدًا ( 17 )
Therefore grant a delay to the Unbelievers: Give respite to them gently (for awhile).

- Bid'ah (Innovation)The Islamic definition of Bid’ah: Imaam Ash-Shaafi’i, may Allah have mercy upon him, said: “A Bid’ah is anything that has no basis in the Qur’aan, Sunnah or sayings of any of the companions.” Ibn Al-Jawzi, may Allah have mercy upon him, said: “A Bid’ah is any form of worship that did not exist (at the time of the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam and his companions) then later it was innovated.” Ibn Rajab, may Allah have mercy upon him, said: “A Bid’ah is any form of worship which has no basis in the Sharee’ah which would warrant its legislation.”

- The Dreamer's HandbookThis book starts by presenting a spiritual understanding of sleep from the Islamic viewpoint, which is followed by guidelines for recommended evening, pre-sleep, night, and morning acts of worship. The conceptual understanding of dreams is laid out next, followed by an analytical study of dreams in the Quran, and of dreams seen by the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and by his companions (R). The rest of the book deals with dream interpretation, its correct rules and procedures, drills to help understand these rules, and a large glossary of interpreted dream symbols. This, we hope, fulfills two important goals regarding sleep and dreams: It establishes their understanding upon the strong foundation of the Quran and Sunnah, and it eliminates a great deal of superstition that surrounds them. Indeed, from Allah (SWT) alone we seek help and acceptance.
