الرَّحْمَٰنُ ( 1 ) 
(Allah) Most Gracious!
عَلَّمَ الْقُرْآنَ ( 2 )
It is He Who has taught the Qur'an.
خَلَقَ الْإِنسَانَ ( 3 )
He has created man:
عَلَّمَهُ الْبَيَانَ ( 4 )
He has taught him speech (and intelligence).
الشَّمْسُ وَالْقَمَرُ بِحُسْبَانٍ ( 5 )
The sun and the moon follow courses (exactly) computed;
وَالنَّجْمُ وَالشَّجَرُ يَسْجُدَانِ ( 6 )
And the herbs and the trees - both (alike) prostrate in adoration.
وَالسَّمَاءَ رَفَعَهَا وَوَضَعَ الْمِيزَانَ ( 7 )
And the Firmament has He raised high, and He has set up the Balance (of Justice),
أَلَّا تَطْغَوْا فِي الْمِيزَانِ ( 8 )
In order that ye may not transgress (due) balance.
وَأَقِيمُوا الْوَزْنَ بِالْقِسْطِ وَلَا تُخْسِرُوا الْمِيزَانَ ( 9 )
So establish weight with justice and fall not short in the balance.
وَالْأَرْضَ وَضَعَهَا لِلْأَنَامِ ( 10 )
It is He Who has spread out the earth for (His) creatures:
فِيهَا فَاكِهَةٌ وَالنَّخْلُ ذَاتُ الْأَكْمَامِ ( 11 )
Therein is fruit and date-palms, producing spathes (enclosing dates);
وَالْحَبُّ ذُو الْعَصْفِ وَالرَّيْحَانُ ( 12 )
Also corn, with (its) leaves and stalk for fodder, and sweet-smelling plants.
فَبِأَيِّ آلَاءِ رَبِّكُمَا تُكَذِّبَانِ ( 13 )
Then which of the favours of your Lord will ye deny?
خَلَقَ الْإِنسَانَ مِن صَلْصَالٍ كَالْفَخَّارِ ( 14 )
He created man from sounding clay like unto pottery,
وَخَلَقَ الْجَانَّ مِن مَّارِجٍ مِّن نَّارٍ ( 15 )
And He created Jinns from fire free of smoke:

- Like a GarmentI welcome you to our ‘Like A Garment’ e-book, an initiative that seeks to educate Muslims to find conjugal bliss in their marriages. The initiative is called ‘Like A Garment’, from the famous Quranic phrase of spouses being like garments to one another. The website has two aims: to disseminate information about this topic (which will, Insha Allah, be beneficial to all Muslims, single and married), and to garner, via anonymous questionnaires, the problems and concerns that the Muslims of our times are facing in this area (which will help me better prepare future lectures).

- Response on Misconceptions about the Ruling of Celebrating the Birthday of the ProphetThis is a medium response to one Yemenite Sufi whose name is Al-Habeeb Ibn 'Ali Al-Jafri. In his most recent tape entitled ''The Objectives of a Female Believer and Her Example in Life'', he mentioned that the celebration of the Prophet's, sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam, birthday is permissible. He provided evidence from the Quran and the Sunnah (of the Prophet, sallalaahu 'alayhi wa salam) -as he claims- and he confused the ordinary listener with this evidence.
