Sorah At-Takathur ( The piling Up ) - Verses Number 8
أَلْهَاكُمُ التَّكَاثُرُ ( 1 ) 
The mutual rivalry for piling up (the good things of this world) diverts you (from the more serious things),
حَتَّىٰ زُرْتُمُ الْمَقَابِرَ ( 2 )
Until ye visit the graves.
كَلَّا سَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ ( 3 )
But nay, ye soon shall know (the reality).
ثُمَّ كَلَّا سَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ ( 4 )
Again, ye soon shall know!
كَلَّا لَوْ تَعْلَمُونَ عِلْمَ الْيَقِينِ ( 5 )
Nay, were ye to know with certainty of mind, (ye would beware!)
لَتَرَوُنَّ الْجَحِيمَ ( 6 )
Ye shall certainly see Hell-Fire!
ثُمَّ لَتَرَوُنَّهَا عَيْنَ الْيَقِينِ ( 7 )
Again, ye shall see it with certainty of sight!
ثُمَّ لَتُسْأَلُنَّ يَوْمَئِذٍ عَنِ النَّعِيمِ ( 8 )
Then, shall ye be questioned that Day about the joy (ye indulged in!).

- Praying Eid in the Musallaa is the SunnahPraying 'Eid in the Musallaa is the Sunnah: there is great and profound wisdom behind this Sunnah – the Sunnah of praying in an open area of land. And it is that: The Muslims will have two days of the year where all the people of every city can gather together – whether men, women or children - and turn towards Allaah with their hearts in unity, praying behind one Imaam, making the Takbeer, the Tahleel and supplicating to Allaah sincerely together, as if they were united upon the heart of one man, happy and joyous about the blessing Allaah has bestowed on them. So the Eid will truly be an occasion of celebration for them.

- The World of the Jinn and DevilsIn the work before you, Dr. Umar Al-Ashqar, a well-known contemporary scholar of Islam, has attempted to tackle two important topics. The first topic is that of the characteristics of the jinn. This is a difficult topic for many reasons. One of them is that the devils are known to be liars. Thus, even when a person does encounter them, he cannot put much trust in what they claim about themselves. Therefore, one must virtually rely only on the statements of the Quran and the authentic hadith of the Prophet (peace be upon him). The second topic is the characteristics and methodology of Satan himself. It is no coincidence that Allah has mentioned Satan, his goals, his plots and his allies throughout the entire Quran. This is because Satan is man’s greatest enemy. The believer must know the key to defending himself from Satan.
