O Man!

I swear by the glow of sunset; by the night and all that it brings together; by the moon, in its full perfection: that you shall march onwards from state to state. Why then do they not have faith, or kneel in prayer when the Quran is read to them? The unbelievers indeed deny it; but Allah knows best the falsehoods they believe in. Therefore proclaim to all a woeful doom, save those who embrace the true faith and do good works; for theirs is an unfailing recompense. (84:1-25) What has been said here regarding Doomsday appears to concern an unknown world. However, so many proofs exist which indicate the veracity of these statements. One example is provided by this present world. The presence of this world is in itself a proof that another world like this, or better than this, can come into existence. Secondly, many extraordinary aspects of the Quran prove that it is a book of God. With such clear evidence, those who do not believe in the Hereafter and lead a life of neglect of the Hereafter are indeed committing an unpardonable offence. □ Those who do not control their tongues are evil The Prophet asked his companions if he should tell them who was worst amongst them. The companions asked him to do so. “Those who seek to slander others and create discord among friends; those who lay false accusations upon innocent people,” the Prophet said. (Hadith, Ahmad)
