Sorah An-Naba' ( The Great News ) - Verses Number 40
عَمَّ يَتَسَاءَلُونَ ( 1 ) 
About what are they asking one another?
عَنِ النَّبَإِ الْعَظِيمِ ( 2 )
About the great news -
الَّذِي هُمْ فِيهِ مُخْتَلِفُونَ ( 3 )
That over which they are in disagreement.
كَلَّا سَيَعْلَمُونَ ( 4 )
No! They are going to know.
ثُمَّ كَلَّا سَيَعْلَمُونَ ( 5 )
Then, no! They are going to know.
أَلَمْ نَجْعَلِ الْأَرْضَ مِهَادًا ( 6 )
Have We not made the earth a resting place?
وَالْجِبَالَ أَوْتَادًا ( 7 )
And the mountains as stakes?
وَخَلَقْنَاكُمْ أَزْوَاجًا ( 8 )
And We created you in pairs
وَجَعَلْنَا نَوْمَكُمْ سُبَاتًا ( 9 )
And made your sleep [a means for] rest
وَجَعَلْنَا اللَّيْلَ لِبَاسًا ( 10 )
And made the night as clothing
وَجَعَلْنَا النَّهَارَ مَعَاشًا ( 11 )
And made the day for livelihood
وَبَنَيْنَا فَوْقَكُمْ سَبْعًا شِدَادًا ( 12 )
And constructed above you seven strong [heavens]
وَجَعَلْنَا سِرَاجًا وَهَّاجًا ( 13 )
And made [therein] a burning lamp
وَأَنزَلْنَا مِنَ الْمُعْصِرَاتِ مَاءً ثَجَّاجًا ( 14 )
And sent down, from the rain clouds, pouring water
لِّنُخْرِجَ بِهِ حَبًّا وَنَبَاتًا ( 15 )
That We may bring forth thereby grain and vegetation
وَجَنَّاتٍ أَلْفَافًا ( 16 )
And gardens of entwined growth.
إِنَّ يَوْمَ الْفَصْلِ كَانَ مِيقَاتًا ( 17 )
Indeed, the Day of Judgement is an appointed time -
يَوْمَ يُنفَخُ فِي الصُّورِ فَتَأْتُونَ أَفْوَاجًا ( 18 )
The Day the Horn is blown and you will come forth in multitudes
وَفُتِحَتِ السَّمَاءُ فَكَانَتْ أَبْوَابًا ( 19 )
And the heaven is opened and will become gateways
وَسُيِّرَتِ الْجِبَالُ فَكَانَتْ سَرَابًا ( 20 )
And the mountains are removed and will be [but] a mirage.
إِنَّ جَهَنَّمَ كَانَتْ مِرْصَادًا ( 21 )
Indeed, Hell has been lying in wait
لِّلطَّاغِينَ مَآبًا ( 22 )
For the transgressors, a place of return,
لَّابِثِينَ فِيهَا أَحْقَابًا ( 23 )
In which they will remain for ages [unending].
لَّا يَذُوقُونَ فِيهَا بَرْدًا وَلَا شَرَابًا ( 24 )
They will not taste therein [any] coolness or drink
إِلَّا حَمِيمًا وَغَسَّاقًا ( 25 )
Except scalding water and [foul] purulence -
جَزَاءً وِفَاقًا ( 26 )
An appropriate recompense.
إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا لَا يَرْجُونَ حِسَابًا ( 27 )
Indeed, they were not expecting an account
وَكَذَّبُوا بِآيَاتِنَا كِذَّابًا ( 28 )
And denied Our verses with [emphatic] denial.
وَكُلَّ شَيْءٍ أَحْصَيْنَاهُ كِتَابًا ( 29 )
But all things We have enumerated in writing.
فَذُوقُوا فَلَن نَّزِيدَكُمْ إِلَّا عَذَابًا ( 30 )
"So taste [the penalty], and never will We increase you except in torment."
إِنَّ لِلْمُتَّقِينَ مَفَازًا ( 31 )
Indeed, for the righteous is attainment -
حَدَائِقَ وَأَعْنَابًا ( 32 )
Gardens and grapevines
وَكَوَاعِبَ أَتْرَابًا ( 33 )
And full-breasted [companions] of equal age
وَكَأْسًا دِهَاقًا ( 34 )
And a full cup.
لَّا يَسْمَعُونَ فِيهَا لَغْوًا وَلَا كِذَّابًا ( 35 )
No ill speech will they hear therein or any falsehood -
جَزَاءً مِّن رَّبِّكَ عَطَاءً حِسَابًا ( 36 )
[As] reward from your Lord, [a generous] gift [made due by] account,
رَّبِّ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا الرَّحْمَٰنِ ۖ لَا يَمْلِكُونَ مِنْهُ خِطَابًا ( 37 )
[From] the Lord of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them, the Most Merciful. They possess not from Him [authority for] speech.
يَوْمَ يَقُومُ الرُّوحُ وَالْمَلَائِكَةُ صَفًّا ۖ لَّا يَتَكَلَّمُونَ إِلَّا مَنْ أَذِنَ لَهُ الرَّحْمَٰنُ وَقَالَ صَوَابًا ( 38 )
The Day that the Spirit and the angels will stand in rows, they will not speak except for one whom the Most Merciful permits, and he will say what is correct.
ذَٰلِكَ الْيَوْمُ الْحَقُّ ۖ فَمَن شَاءَ اتَّخَذَ إِلَىٰ رَبِّهِ مَآبًا ( 39 )
That is the True Day; so he who wills may take to his Lord a [way of] return.
إِنَّا أَنذَرْنَاكُمْ عَذَابًا قَرِيبًا يَوْمَ يَنظُرُ الْمَرْءُ مَا قَدَّمَتْ يَدَاهُ وَيَقُولُ الْكَافِرُ يَا لَيْتَنِي كُنتُ تُرَابًا ( 40 )
Indeed, We have warned you of a near punishment on the Day when a man will observe what his hands have put forth and the disbeliever will say, "Oh, I wish that I were dust!"

- An Introduction to the Sciences of HadithThe Muslims in general believe that the Qur'an has been preserved intact and pure by Allah Himself. But what is often forgotten by many is that this preservation necessarily includes the Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad (S), the practical example of the implementation of the Qur'an. Hadith is Sunnah in record. How the immense wealth of Hadith literature has been left to us by the Muhaddiths (scholars of Hadith) is an extremely wide, complex study. We publish this short treatise on "the science of Hadith" by the learned Suhaib Hasan with English readers in mind. It is part of our scheme to introduce various aspects of Islam to English readers. May Allah accept it as a good work.

- Islam Our ChoiceIslam consists of God’s guidance to humanity. It is not the religion of any particular people. It does not belong to any specific land. All Prophets of God, in all ages, and at all places, preached this very religion.

- Worldly Difficulties - Reality, Causes and BenefitsThis booklet reminds the reader that worldly difficulties are a trial for the believers, while not disregarding the fact that more often afflictions result from one’s sins and disobedience to Allah. It also teaches how appropriate behavior and correct attitude can change an adversity into a worthwhile opportunity to achieve Allah’s Pleasure through Sabr, Shukr, Ihtisaab and Istirja, whereas impatience, panic and complaining can worsen one’s state of affairs. It also explains the futility of invoking the Prophets and the dead to remove hardships, and encourages calling upon Allah Alone to ease one’s affairs.
