All
praise is to Allaah, we praise Him, seek His aid, and ask His forgiveness.
We seek refuge in Allaah from the evils of ourselves, and from the bad
consequences of our deeds. Whoever Allaah guides there is none to take
astray, and whoever Allaah takes astray there is none to guide. I testify
that there is no God except Allaah alone without any associates, and I
testify that Muhammad
, is His bondservent and messenger. Indeed the best speech is the Book
of Allaah and the best guidance is the guidance brought by Muhammad.
The most evil of matters is the innovated one. Every innovation is bid'ah.
Every bid'ah is misguidance, and every misguidance is in the Fire.
And
(as for) the believing men and the believing women, they are
guardians
of each
other;
they enjoin
good
and forbid
evil
and keep up prayer
and
pay the poor-rate,
and
obey Allaah and His Apostle; (as for) these,
Allaah
will show mercy
to
them; surely Allaah is Mighty, Wise.
[Al-Quraan,
9:71]
If
you ask them who sends down rain from the sky, and gives life therewith
to
the earth after its death? They would certainly say 'Allaah!' Say: 'All
the praise and thanks be to Allaah!' Nay! Most of them have no sense" (Surah
al-Ankaboot 29:63)
"Say:
'Who provides for you from the sky and from the earth? Or who owns hearing
and sight? And who brings out the living from the dead and the dead from
the living? And who disposes the affairs?' They will say: 'Allaah.'
Say: 'Will you not them be afraid of Allaah's Punishment (for setting
up rivals in worship with Allaah)?'"
(Surah
Yunus 10:31).
Verily
in the creation of the heavens and the earth, and the alternation of night
and day - there are indeed signs for men of understanding; Men who remember
Allah, standing, sitting, and lying down on their sides, and contemplate
the creation of the heavens and the earth (with the thought) "Our Lord!
Not for nothing have You created (all) this. Glory to You! Give us
salvation from the suffering of the Fire." [3:190-191]
