Sorah Al-Mursalat ( Those sent forth ) - Verses Number 50
وَإِذَا الرُّسُلُ أُقِّتَتْ ( 11 )

And when the messengers are (all) appointed a time (to collect);-
وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا يَوْمُ الْفَصْلِ ( 14 )

And what will explain to thee what is the Day of Sorting out?
أَلَمْ نَخْلُقكُّم مِّن مَّاءٍ مَّهِينٍ ( 20 )

Have We not created you from a fluid (held) despicable?-
فَقَدَرْنَا فَنِعْمَ الْقَادِرُونَ ( 23 )

For We do determine (according to need); for We are the best to determine (things).
وَجَعَلْنَا فِيهَا رَوَاسِيَ شَامِخَاتٍ وَأَسْقَيْنَاكُم مَّاءً فُرَاتًا ( 27 )

And made therein mountains standing firm, lofty (in stature); and provided for you water sweet (and wholesome)?
انطَلِقُوا إِلَىٰ مَا كُنتُم بِهِ تُكَذِّبُونَ ( 29 )

(It will be said:) "Depart ye to that which ye used to reject as false!
انطَلِقُوا إِلَىٰ ظِلٍّ ذِي ثَلَاثِ شُعَبٍ ( 30 )

"Depart ye to a Shadow (of smoke ascending) in three columns,
لَّا ظَلِيلٍ وَلَا يُغْنِي مِنَ اللَّهَبِ ( 31 )

"(Which yields) no shade of coolness, and is of no use against the fierce Blaze.
كَأَنَّهُ جِمَالَتٌ صُفْرٌ ( 33 )

"As if there were (a string of) yellow camels (marching swiftly)."
هَٰذَا يَوْمُ الْفَصْلِ ۖ جَمَعْنَاكُمْ وَالْأَوَّلِينَ ( 38 )

That will be a Day of Sorting out! We shall gather you together and those before (you)!
إِنَّ الْمُتَّقِينَ فِي ظِلَالٍ وَعُيُونٍ ( 41 )

As to the Righteous, they shall be amidst (cool) shades and springs (of water).
كُلُوا وَاشْرَبُوا هَنِيئًا بِمَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ ( 43 )

"Eat ye and drink ye to your heart's content: for that ye worked (Righteousness).
كُلُوا وَتَمَتَّعُوا قَلِيلًا إِنَّكُم مُّجْرِمُونَ ( 46 )

(O ye unjust!) Eat ye and enjoy yourselves (but) a little while, for that ye are Sinners.

- Night Prayer in RamadanA most rewarding and fulfilling part of a Muslim's worship are those blessed moments that he spends praying in the depth of the night, privately addressing his Great Lord, sincerely glorifying Him, humbly imploring Him - beseeching His forgiveness and asking Him for favors. The voluntary "night prayer", or qiyaam, is indispensable for a person's moral, spiritual, and physical welfare. Yet, it is greatly misunderstood and largely neglected by most Muslims
