74. al-Mudathir: The Clothed One

1 O thou enveloped in thy cloak,
2 Arise and warn!
3 Thy Lord magnify,
4 Thy raiment purify,
5 Pollution shun!
6 And show not favour, seeking wordly gain!
7 For the sake of thy Lord, be patient!
8 For when the trumpet shall sound,
9 Surely that day will be a day of anguish,
10 Not of ease, for disbelievers.
11 Leave Me (to deal) with him whom I created lonely,
12 And then bestowed upon him ample means,
13 And sons abiding in his presence
14 And made (life) smooth for him.
15 Yet he desireth that I should give more.
16 Nay! For lo! he hath been stubborn to Our revelations.
17 On him I shall impose a fearful doom.
18 For lo! he did consider; then he planned -
19 (Self-)destroyed is he, how he planned!
20 Again (self-)destroyed is he, how he planned! -
21 Then looked he,
22 Then frowned he and showed displeasure.
23 Then turned he away in pride
24 And said: This is naught else than magic from of old;
25 This is naught else than speech of mortal man.
26 Him shall I fling unto the burning.
27 - Ah, what will convey unto thee what that burning is! -
28 It leaveth naught; it spareth naught
29 It shrivelleth the man.
30 Above it are nineteen.
31 We have appointed only angels to be wardens of the Fire, and their number have We made to be a stumbling-block for those who disbelieve; that those to whom the Scripture hath been given may have certainty, and that believers may increase in faith; and that those to whom the Scripture hath been given and believers may not doubt; and that those in whose hearts there is disease, and disbelievers, may say: What meaneth Allah by this similitude ? Thus Allah sendeth astray whom He will, and whom He will He guideth. None knoweth the hosts of thy Lord save Him. This is naught else than a Reminder unto mortals.
32 Nay, by the Moon
33 And the night when it withdraweth
34 And the dawn when it shineth forth,
35 Lo! this is one of the greatest (portents)
36 As a warning unto men,
37 Unto him of you who will advance or hang back.
38 Every soul is a pledge for its own deeds;
39 Save those who will stand on the right hand.
40 In gardens they will ask one another
41 Concerning the guilty:
42 What hath brought you to this burning ?
43 They will answer: We were not of those who prayed
44 Nor did we feed the wretched.
45 We used to wade (in vain dispute) with (all) waders,
46 And we used to deny the Day of Judgment,
47 Till the Inevitable came unto us.
48 The mediation of no mediators will avail them then.
49 Why now turn they away from the Admonishment,
50 As they were frightened asses
51 Fleeing from a lion ?
52 Nay, but everyone of them desireth that he should be given open pages (from Allah).
53 Nay, verily. They fear not the Hereafter.
54 Nay, verily. Lo! this is an Admonishment.
55 So whosoever will may heed.
56 And they will not heed unless Allah willeth (it). He is the fount of fear. He is the fount of Mercy.

Very interesting!! Think about this: In the foreseeable
future, the whole world may not end up being biased in opposition to the seniors.
Americans possibly will some day no longer suppose it could be FINE to tell cracks
associated with some other person's generation or simply disease.

Nevertheless a lot of people are generally not in that respect there at this point.
Lots of of our own elderly may be dispatched by way of wife and kids to live their very own enduring hours in nursing homes.
in home geriatric massage nj is currently offered at quite a few of the great deal more thorough assisted living clinics.

They will definitely already have yoga exercises
groups, arts and homemade projects, coupled with dancing.
In fact, in that respect there have always been issues where
elders inside assisted living facilities have fallen in love, and have been prevented from visiting each other, concerning the orders of
the folks working the building. That solely feels extremely unkind not to
mention foul.

First, many thanks for the information, and your one-of-a-kind perspective.
I can enjoy this weblog and most importantly information. At this stage, I
feel I trash much too much time via the internet, reading junk, mainly.
This is a refreshing switch from what I've known. Still, I feel that
browsing other's ideas is a very vital investment of at minimum some of my weekly allotment of
time in my plan. It's like hunting throughout the
chaff to discover the treasure chest. Or maybe, whatever example
performs best for you. Still, sitting in front of the home computer is probably as harmful to
you as cigarettes and fried chips.

I was wondering if you ever thought of changing the page layout of your site?

Its very well written; I love what youve got to say.
But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people
could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of
text for only having 1 or 2 pictures. Maybe you could space it out better?
