15. The Rocky Tract

15 – 54 – 99 – 6

Al Hijr------The Rocky Tract


1 The Qur'an is the Divine Book. 

On the Day of Judgment, the unbelievers will wish that they were Muslims.
Allah Himself has taken the responsibility of preserving
the Qur'an. 


2 Allah created and decorated the heavens. He also created
everything suitable for human life on earth. 


3 Story of Adam's creation; prostration of the angels before him
and Shaitân's refusal to prostrate.
Shaitân and his followers are destined for hell. 


4 The righteous will be awarded paradise. 
The Prophet Ibrâheem is given the good news of a son by two angels. 


5 The same angels came to the Prophet Lût and executed Allah's
decree of stoning to death the nation of homosexuals. 


6 Punishment to the people of Hijr for their disbelief. 
Al-Fâtiha is also called: "Seven verses worthy of
oft-recitation." 
Proclaim the commandments of Allah publicly and turn away
from the Mushrikeen.

17. The Children of Israel

17 – 50 – 111 – 12

Bani Israel------The Children of Israel
The Journey by Night


1 Allah took Muhammad (pbuh) on a tour of the universe. 
Allah fulfilled the prophecy made in the Holy Book of the
Israelites that they will create mischief in the land twice
and each time they will be punished.
The Qur'an guides to the perfect Straight Way. 


2 On the Day of Judgment, each individual shall be given the
book of his own deeds. 
He that seeks guidance does so to his own good and he who
goes astray does so to his own loss. 
He that desires the transitory things of this life is given here,
but in the Hereafter he shall be condemned to hell. 


3 Some commandments of Allah for the believers including proper behavior
with parents, relatives, and the community at large. 


4 The commandments (continued) . . . 


5 If there were other gods besides Allah, they would have tried
to dethrone Him. 
Belief in the Hereafter is necessary to understand the Qur'an.
Hereafter is life after death. 
The questions of disbelievers on resurrection.

6 Believers should speak only good words. 
Invented gods have no power to relieve you from any distress. Why the signs are not sent to Muhammad (pbuh) like prior prophets. 


7 Shaitân, his enmity with human beings, and his vow to seduce them. 
Allah has provided conveyance for you on land and sea. 

8 Accountability of every community and its leaders. 
No compromise is allowed in matters of Islamic law and principles.
Five times daily Salah (prayers) and an extra prayer (called
Tahajjud) for the Holy Prophet.


9 The Qur'an is a healing and mercy for the believers. 


10 Ar-Rûh (Spirit) is at the command of Allah.
No one can produce a Qur'an like this. Allah has used different methods in the Qur'an to make people
understand His Message. 11 Allah has sent a human Rasool to human beings; if the dwellers of earth
had been Angels, Allah would have sent an angel as a Rasool. Guidance by Allah only; Disbelievers will be resurrected as deaf, blind.. 

Only disbelievers can doubt life after death. 


12 Musa was given nine signs; people still did not believe him. The Qur'an is revealed in truth and with the truth it has come down in
sections to suit each occasion, for easy deliberation.
Offer Salah neither too loud nor in too low a voice,
adopt the middle course.
