The Meaning of Surah 54 Al-Qamar The Moon (La Luna) From The Holy Quran Bilingual Edition In English and Spanish Languange.
The Meaning of Surah 99 Az-Zalzalah (The Earthquake) From Holy Quran Bilingual Edition In English and Spanish Languange.
Surah Al-Zalzalah (The Earthuake") is the 99th chapter (surah) of The Holy Qur'an, composed of 8 verses (ayat). Though it is usually classified as a Medinan surah, the period under which the surah was revealed is not unanimously agreed upon by Qur'anic exegetes.
The surah begins by describing how on the Day of Judgment, the Earth will give off a terrible earthquake and "throw up her burdens". Through the inspiration of God, the Earth will bear witness to the actions of men it has witnessed. According to Michael Sells, the earth opening up and bearing forth her secrets in this surah is indicative of a birth metaphor.
The earth al-'Ard in the feminine gender bears forth of how her lord revealed the final secret to her. Human beings will then realize that the moment of accountability has arrived. This meticulous accountability will reflect good and evil deeds that might have seemed insignificant at the time.
The two concluding verses state that all men will be sorted out into groups according to their deeds, and they will see the consequence of everything they have done; every atom's weight of good or evil:
That day mankind will issue forth in scattered groups to be shown their deeds.
And whoso doeth good an atom's weight will see it then,
And whoso doeth ill an atom's weight will see it then.
— The Holy Qur'an, verses 99:6-8 (translated by Marmaduke Pickthall)
Its theme is the second life after death and presentation in it before man of the full record of the deeds done by him in the world. In the first three sentences it has been told briefly how the second life after death will take place and how confounding it will be for man. In the next two sentences it has been said that this very earth on which man has lived and performed all kinds of deeds thoughtlessly, and about which he never could fancy that this lifeless thing would at some time in the future bear witness to his deeds, will speak out on that Day by Allah's command and will state in respect of each individual person what act he had committed at a particular time and place.
Then, it has been said that men on that Day, rising from their graves, will come out in their varied groups from all corners of the earth, to be shown their deeds and works, and their presentation of the deeds will be so complete and detailed that not an atom's weight of any good or evil act will be left unnoticed or hidden from his eyes.
The Human Soul Journey Afterdeath In Islam English Edition Lite Version Based From The Noble Quran & Al-Hadith.
Imagine yourself at the moment of your death. What thoughts cross your mind? Memories of family and friends? Panic? Regrets? Remembrance of Allah SWT (God)? What is death? What happens to us after we die? What is life in the Hereafter like, this new and strange world after death? Do we lose consciousness of this life? Where does our soul go? Do we feel and think the same?
The ineffable feeling of crossing the boundary between this world and the next cannot be described in words, nor imagined in the mind, but can be understood only through divine revealation and inspiration. Let us for the next few moments seek an understanding of this, death, the only certainty in life.
Sometimes we may not want to know about the processes that occur after we die because we are afraid or don’t want to think about it. However, this is not the attitude of a Muslim. We should be foremost in learning and understanding death, so we can live our lives accordingly.
The prophet (saw) said, “Live in this world as though you are a stranger or a traveler (passing through it).” [Muslim] We are on a journey and should know about the whole journey’s itinerary, not just one part.
Death is inevitable. It is the one thing that we can be certain about in life. We are born to die. Every soul shall have a taste of death no matter who they are. This is confirmed for us many times in the Quran:
“Every soul shall have a taste of death: and only on the Day of Judgement shall you be paid your full recompense.” (Quran 3:185)
Death is not pure annihilation, but rather both the living and dead are aware, but there is a difference that can’t be compared. Death is merely movement from one world to another. It can be described as a journey through a wormhole to a separate dimension of existence.
The True Happiness For Mind, Body and Soul In Islam Bilingual Edition In English And Germany Languange Standar Version.
Real happiness and peace can be found in submitting to the commands of the Creator and the Sustainer of this world. Allah SWT (God) has said in The Holy Quran:
“Truly, in remembering God do hearts find rest.” (Quran 13:28)
On the other hand, the one who turns away from The Holy Quran will have a life of hardship in this world. God has said:
“But whoever turns away from the Quran, he will have a hard life, and We will raise him up blind on the Day of Judgment.” (Quran 20:124)
As most of us have come to realise, happiness is that ethereal quality that encompasses contentment and peacefulness; it is the soft joy that causes our lips, faces and hearts to smile. It is determined by faith in God and obedience to Him. Thus happiness embodies the peace security and submission that is Islam. The injunctions and regulations of Islam reinforce the happiness that comes from knowing God and they help to guarantee humankind’s happiness during life in this world. However, Islam also emphasizes that the life of this world is nothing more than a means of attaining the Hereafter. By following the guidelines of Islam it is possible to be happy while awaiting our eternal happiness.
Wirkliches Glück und Frieden kann man finden, wenn man sich den Geboten des Schöpfers und des Erhalters dieser Welt unterwirft. Allah SWT (Gott) hat im Heiligen Quran gesagt:
"Wahrhaftig, wenn man sich an Gott erinnert, finden die Herzen Ruhe." (Koran 13:28).
Auf der anderen Seite wird derjenige, der sich vom Heiligen Quran abwendet, ein Leben in Not in dieser Welt haben. Gott hat gesagt:
"Aber wer sich vom Koran abwendet, der wird ein hartes Leben haben, und Wir werden ihn am Tag der Auferstehung blind auferwecken." (Koran 20:124)
Wie die meisten von uns erkannt haben, ist Glück diese ätherische Qualität, die Zufriedenheit und Frieden umfasst; es ist die weiche Freude, die unsere Lippen, Gesichter und Herzen zum Lächeln bringt. Sie wird bestimmt durch den Glauben an Gott und den Gehorsam gegenüber ihm. So verkörpert das Glück die Friedenssicherheit und Unterwerfung, die der Islam ist.
Die Verfügungen und Vorschriften des Islam verstärken das Glück, das aus der Kenntnis Gottes entsteht, und sie helfen, das Glück der Menschheit während des Lebens in dieser Welt zu garantieren. Der Islam betont jedoch auch, dass das Leben in dieser Welt nichts anderes ist als ein Mittel zur Erreichung des Jenseits. Indem man den Richtlinien des Islam folgt, ist es möglich, glücklich zu sein, während man auf unser ewiges Glück wartet. Manchmal, um Glück zu erlangen, versuchen die Menschen, komplizierte Wege zu gehen; sie sehen den einfacheren Weg, den der Islam ist, nicht.
When I close my eyes, he's always smiling.
Even when he was sad, he was always smiling.
His eyes were the only giveaway to the pain he tried so desperately to hide.
Young teenager Natalie, has just died. A reaper gives her two choices. She can either become a reaper herself and harvest souls of the living, or she can let the reaper standing before her harvest her soul.
Emilie was a strange little girl. She had a very special gift: she could see and speak to the dead. She had a terrible home life, her mother wanted nothing more than to get rid of her. On one fateful night, that's exactly what happens.
This book was named "Happy birthday!...Or not!".
Later, I decided to make it into a book with more ghost stories, and the story mentioned above is the first one. More stories will be added after I get inspired.
