Sorah Al-Inshiqaq (The Splitting Asunder) - Verses Number 25
إِذَا السَّمَاءُ انشَقَّتْ ( 1 ) 
When the sky is rent asunder,
وَأَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْ ( 2 )
And hearkens to (the Command of) its Lord, and it must needs (do so);-
وَإِذَا الْأَرْضُ مُدَّتْ ( 3 )
And when the earth is flattened out,
وَأَلْقَتْ مَا فِيهَا وَتَخَلَّتْ ( 4 )
And casts forth what is within it and becomes (clean) empty,
وَأَذِنَتْ لِرَبِّهَا وَحُقَّتْ ( 5 )
And hearkens to (the Command of) its Lord,- and it must needs (do so);- (then will come Home the full reality).
يَا أَيُّهَا الْإِنسَانُ إِنَّكَ كَادِحٌ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ كَدْحًا فَمُلَاقِيهِ ( 6 )
O thou man! Verily thou art ever toiling on towards thy Lord- painfully toiling,- but thou shalt meet Him.
فَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِيَ كِتَابَهُ بِيَمِينِهِ ( 7 )
Then he who is given his Record in his right hand,
فَسَوْفَ يُحَاسَبُ حِسَابًا يَسِيرًا ( 8 )
Soon will his account be taken by an easy reckoning,
وَيَنقَلِبُ إِلَىٰ أَهْلِهِ مَسْرُورًا ( 9 )
And he will turn to his people, rejoicing!
وَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِيَ كِتَابَهُ وَرَاءَ ظَهْرِهِ ( 10 )
But he who is given his Record behind his back,-
فَسَوْفَ يَدْعُو ثُبُورًا ( 11 )
Soon will he cry for perdition,
وَيَصْلَىٰ سَعِيرًا ( 12 )
And he will enter a Blazing Fire.
إِنَّهُ كَانَ فِي أَهْلِهِ مَسْرُورًا ( 13 )
Truly, did he go about among his people, rejoicing!
إِنَّهُ ظَنَّ أَن لَّن يَحُورَ ( 14 )
Truly, did he think that he would not have to return (to Us)!
بَلَىٰ إِنَّ رَبَّهُ كَانَ بِهِ بَصِيرًا ( 15 )
Nay, nay! for his Lord was (ever) watchful of him!
فَلَا أُقْسِمُ بِالشَّفَقِ ( 16 )
So I do call to witness the ruddy glow of Sunset;
وَاللَّيْلِ وَمَا وَسَقَ ( 17 )
The Night and its Homing;
وَالْقَمَرِ إِذَا اتَّسَقَ ( 18 )
And the Moon in her fullness:
لَتَرْكَبُنَّ طَبَقًا عَن طَبَقٍ ( 19 )
Ye shall surely travel from stage to stage.
فَمَا لَهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ ( 20 )
What then is the matter with them, that they believe not?-
وَإِذَا قُرِئَ عَلَيْهِمُ الْقُرْآنُ لَا يَسْجُدُونَ ۩ ( 21 )
And when the Qur'an is read to them, they fall not prostrate,
بَلِ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا يُكَذِّبُونَ ( 22 )
But on the contrary the Unbelievers reject (it).
وَاللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا يُوعُونَ ( 23 )
But Allah has full knowledge of what they secrete (in their breasts)
فَبَشِّرْهُم بِعَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ ( 24 )
So announce to them a Penalty Grievous,
إِلَّا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ لَهُمْ أَجْرٌ غَيْرُ مَمْنُونٍ ( 25 )
Except to those who believe and work righteous deeds: For them is a Reward that will never fail.

- Religious Freedom in Saudi ArabiaThe annual Religious Freedom Reports released by US State Department often include sections about religious freedom in Saudi Arabia. These reports are officially distributed by the State Department and then circulated amongst the centers of research in the West as well as the international media outlets and other channels. Saudi Arabia comes on top of concern of those involved in these reports, due to its religious and political significance. Accordingly, it becomes incumbent on us, as Saudis, to discuss the sections in these reports which cover religious freedom in our country and provide facts that are not included in these reports. While discussing these reports, we should explain to the world our view point vis-à-vis these reports. We should also allow the reader to discover the truth as stated therein and according to criteria upon which many fair-minded, rational people agreed with us.

- Say as universe says Laa ilaaha illa AllaahIntroduction to history of polytheism and monotheism: Allah (glory be to him) created all people as Muslims and monotheists but devils came to them and changed and distorted their religion. Allah said in a qudsi hadith, “I created all my slaves as haneefs (monotheists), but the devils came to them, made them deviate from their religion, forbade them that which I had permitted to them, and commanded them to join partners with me for which I has given no authority.” As soon as people commit a type of polytheism, Allah sends his prophets to call them to the suitable type of monotheism.
