Sorah Al-'adiyat ( Those That Run )

English - Yusuf Ali

Sorah Al-'adiyat ( Those That Run ) - Verses Number 11

وَالْعَادِيَاتِ ضَبْحًا ( 1 )

By the (Steeds) that run, with panting (breath),

فَالْمُورِيَاتِ قَدْحًا ( 2 )

And strike sparks of fire,

فَالْمُغِيرَاتِ صُبْحًا ( 3 )

And push home the charge in the morning,

فَأَثَرْنَ بِهِ نَقْعًا ( 4 )

And raise the dust in clouds the while,

فَوَسَطْنَ بِهِ جَمْعًا ( 5 )

And penetrate forthwith into the midst (of the foe) en masse;-

إِنَّ الْإِنسَانَ لِرَبِّهِ لَكَنُودٌ ( 6 )

Truly man is, to his Lord, ungrateful;

وَإِنَّهُ عَلَىٰ ذَٰلِكَ لَشَهِيدٌ ( 7 )

And to that (fact) he bears witness (by his deeds);

وَإِنَّهُ لِحُبِّ الْخَيْرِ لَشَدِيدٌ ( 8 )

And violent is he in his love of wealth.

أَفَلَا يَعْلَمُ إِذَا بُعْثِرَ مَا فِي الْقُبُورِ ( 9 )

Does he not know,- when that which is in the graves is scattered abroad

وَحُصِّلَ مَا فِي الصُّدُورِ ( 10 )

And that which is (locked up) in (human) breasts is made manifest-

إِنَّ رَبَّهُم بِهِمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ لَّخَبِيرٌ ( 11 )

That their Lord had been Well-acquainted with them, (even to) that Day?

A Calm Dialogue between Sunnah and ShiaIn this book, Dr. Abdur-Rahman Dimashqeyyah shows and discusses the wrong believes in Shii doctrine. He said in his introduction, "… My intention is simply to make clear to every Shia what the books of their religious leaders contain. These are things that many people still do not realize. My intention is to maintain an objective position, far from bigotry and blind allegiance to traditions. My only reason for writing it is to earn the pleasure of Allah and to clarify the truth to all who are interested to hear it. We should all free ourselves from prejudice and wild ideas, and avoid making inflammatory and insulting charges that fuel the emotions, block the path to truth, and widen the chasm between us. These things do nothing but dissipate the spirit of peace and harmony."

Is Trinity Doctrine Divinely Inspired?The author said in its introduction, "Nothing offends more the Christians than to cast doubt about the doctrine of the Trinity, the fountainhead of their faith. Since I grew up as a Christian, I know by heart that it will surely injure a devout follower of Christianity something he knew as true. But to lend a blind eye when I know better is far from righteousness since I am bound by the God's Commandments to guide those mislead by the false doctrine. It is a basic right of every individual to know the truth that will lead him to the right path.
