Qayamat - Repentence
Qayamat:
No burden-bearer can bear another’s burden. If someone weighed down calls for help to bear his load, none of it will be borne for him, even by his next of kin. You can only warn those who fear their Lord in the Unseen and perform prayer. Whoever is purified, is purified for himself alone. Allah is your final destination. (18)
(Holy Quran, Surah Fatir (The Originator of the Creation), Surah # 35: Ayah # 18)

Qur’an Majeed:
Alif Lam Mim (1) That is the Book, without any doubt. It contains guidance for those who guard against evil: (2) those who believe in the Unseen and perform prayer and spend from what We have provided for them; (3)
(Those who guard against evil are) those who believe in what has been sent down to you and what was sent
down before you, and are certain about the hereafter. (4) They are the people guided by their Lord. They are the ones who have
success. (5)
(Holy Quran, Surah Al-Baqarah (The Heifer), Surah # 2: Ayah #1-5)
It is He Who sent down the Book to you from Him: verses containing clear judgements–they are the core of the Book–and others which are open to interpretation. Those with deviation in their hearts follow what is open to interpretation in it, desiring conflict, seeking its inner meaning. No one knows its inner meaning but Allah. Those firmly rooted in knowledge say, ‘We believe in it. All of it is from our Lord.’ But only people of intelligence pay heed. (7) "Our Lord!" (they say), "Let not our hearts deviate now after Thou hast guided us, but grant us mercy from Thine own Presence; for Thou art the Grantor of bounties without measure. (8) (Those firmly rooted in knowledge say,) ‘Our Lord, You are the Gatherer of mankind to a Day of which there is no doubt. Allah will not break His promise.’ (9)
(Holy Quran, Surah Al ‘Imran (The Family Of 'Imran, The House Of 'Imran), Surah # 3: Ayah # 7-9)
Warn by it (the Qur'an) those who fear they will be gathered to their Lord, having no protector or intercessor
apart from Him, so that hopefully they will guard against evil. (51)
(Holy Quran, Surah Al-An’am (The Cattle), Surah # 6: Ayah # 51)
‘Am I to desire someone other than Allah as a judge when it is He Who has sent down the Book to you clarifying everything?’ Those We have given the Book know it has been sent down from your Lord with truth, so on no account be among the doubters. (114)
(Holy Quran, Surah Al-An’am (The Cattle), Surah # 6: Ayah # 114)
We have brought them a Book elucidating everything with knowledge, as guidance and a mercy for people who believe. (52)
(Holy Quran, Surah Al-A’araf (The Heights), Surah # 7: Ayah # 52)
An evil generation has succeeded them, inheriting the Book, taking the goods of this lower world, and saying,
‘We will be forgiven.’ But if similar goods come to them again they still take them. Has not a covenant been
made with them in the Book, that they should only say the truth about Allah and have they not studied what
is in it?
The Final Abode is better for those who guard against evil. Will you not use your intellect? (169) As for those
who hold fast to the Book and perform prayer, We will not let the wage of the righteous be wasted. (170)
(Holy Quran, Surah Al-A’araf (The Heights), Surah # 7: Ayah # 169-170)
Mankind! Admonition has come to you from your Lord and also healing for what is in the breasts and guidance
and mercy for the believers. (57) Say: ‘It is the favour of Allah and His mercy that should be the cause of their rejoicing. That is better than anything they accumulate.’ (58)
(Holy Quran, Surah Yunus (Jonah), Surah # 10: Ayah # 57-58)
Alif Lam Ra. A Book whose verses are perfectly constructed, and then demarcated, coming directly from One
who is All-Wise, All-Aware. (1)
(Holy Quran, Surah Hud (The Prophet Hud), Surah # 11: Ayah # 1)
On that Day We will raise up among every community a witness against them from amongst themselves, and
bring you as a witness against them. We have sent down the Book to you making all things clear and as
guidance and mercy and good news for the Muslims. (89)
(Holy Quran, Surah An-Nahl (The Bee), Surah # 16: Ayah # 89)
Say: ‘The Purest Spirit has brought it down from your Lord with truth, to make those who believe firm, and as guidance and good news for the Muslims.’ (102)
(Holy Quran, Surah An-Nahl (The Bee), Surah # 16: Ayah # 102)
We have made the Qur’an easy to remember. But is there any rememberer there? (17, 22, 32, 40)
(Holy Quran, Surah Al-Qamar (The Moon), Surah # 54: Ayah # 17, 22, 32, 40)
And that is indeed a mighty adjuration if ye but knew, (76) It truly is a Noble Qur’an. (77) In a Book well guarded, (78) Which none shall touch but those who are clean: (79)
(Holy Quran, Surah Al-Waqi’ah (The Inevitable), Surah # 56: Ayah: 76-79)
We sent Our Messengers with the Clear Signs and sent down the Book and the Balance with them so that
mankind might establish justice. And We sent down iron in which there lies great force and which has many
uses for mankind, so that Allah might know those who help Him and His Messengers in the Unseen. Allah is All- Strong, Almighty. (25)
(Holy Quran, Surah Al-Hadid (The Iron), Surah # 57: Ayah # 25)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ramazan:
The month of Ramadan is the one in which the Qur’an was sent down as guidance for mankind, with Clear Signs containing guidance and discrimination. Any of you who are resident for the month should fast it. But any of you
who are ill or on a journey should fast a number of other days. Allah desires ease for you; He does not desire difficulty for you. You should complete the number of days and proclaim Allah’s greatness for the guidance He
has given you so that hopefully you will be thankful. (185)
(Holy Quran, Surah Al-Baqarah (The Heifer), Surah # 2: Ayah #185)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Recitation:
Those who recite the Book of Allah and perform prayer and give of what We have provided for them, secretly and openly, hope for a transaction which will not prove profitless. (29)
(Holy Quran, Surah Fatir (The Originator of the Creation), Surah # 35: Ayah # 29)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Relatives:
The Prophet is closer to the believers than their own selves, and his wives are their mothers. But blood-relations have closer ties to one another in the Book of Allah than other believers and the emigrants, except that you
should act in a proper manner towards your close associates. That is inscribed in the Book. (6)
(Holy Quran, Surah Al-Ahzab (The confederates), Surah # 33: Ayah # 6)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Religion:
There is no compulsion where the religion is concerned. Right guidance has become clearly distinct from error. Anyone who rejects false gods and believes in Allah has grasped the Firmest Handhold, which will never give way. Allah is All- Hearing, All-Knowing. (2:256)
(Holy Quran, Surah Al-Baqarah (The Heifer), Surah # 2: Ayah #256)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Repentence:
Allah only accepts the repentance of those who do evil in ignorance and then quickly repent after doing it. Allah turns towards such people. Allah is All-Knowing, All-Wise. (17) There is no repentance for people who persist in doing evil until death comes to them and who then say, ‘Now I repent,’ nor for people who die disbelievers. We have prepared for them a painful punishment. (18)
(Holy Quran, Surah An-Nisa’(Women), Surah # 4: Ayah #17-18)
When those who believe in Our Signs come to you, say, ‘Peace be upon you!’ Allah has made mercy incumbent on Himself. If anyone among you does evil out of ignorance and then afterwards repents and puts things right, He is Ever- Forgiving, Most Merciful. (54)
(Holy Quran, Surah Al-An’am (The Cattle), Surah # 6: Ayah # 54)
Do they not know that Allah accepts repentance from His servants and acknowledges their alms, and that Allah is the Ever-Returning, the Most Merciful? (104)
(Holy Quran, Surah Al-Tawbah (The Repentance) or Bara’ah (The Disavowal), Surah # 9: Ayah # 104)
‘Ask your Lord for forgiveness and then repent to Him. He will let you enjoy a good life until a specified time,
and will give His favour to all who merit it. But if you turn your backs, I fear for you the punishment of a Mighty Day.’ (3)
(Holy Quran, Surah Hud (The Prophet Hud), Surah # 11: Ayah # 3)
No burden-bearer can bear another’s burden. If someone weighed down calls for help to bear his load, none of it will be borne for him, even by his next of kin. You can only warn those who fear their Lord in the Unseen and perform prayer. Whoever is purified, is purified for himself alone. Allah is your final destination. (18)
