O You Under The Bed Clothing!
The line in the verse 73.20 goes like this .... Allah measures the night and the day. He knows that ye count it not, and turns unto you in mercy ....
Any verse in Quran does not refer to 'Muslims' but to mankind; Allah has created Night and Day for the mankind to enlighten and reassure them by the Night; and enliven and prosper by the Day. The Night is created for us to rest therein and to seek forgiveness for all that we had done during the Day against our conscience, The Book. We are accountable for what we had committed during our Day time; and it is time we sought His Mercy. The Night proceeds with the purification of our conscience, by The Book, until a period during the Night passes by cleansing us of our addiction to evil. So for each and every one of us there is a period of awakening in our conscience before the sleep overtakes us. Early to bed as the Night falls thus gives mankind chance for this retreat in order that they are pruned and primed by the Nights. You cannot fall asleep without this retreat for a wonderfully short, short sleep. Your night is over when Allah says 'wakeup, enough of it!' When you are thus awakened, the time may be deep into the Night or the early hours; never go back to sleep without getting up, remembering Allah dutifully and with gratitude; if you are sure it is Allah who gives you sleep, then it is He who wakes you up now. If we honour Allah then it is that we wake up, refresh us and bring to our memory His grace upon us as much as possible and praise His Glory for all the good He has bestowed upon us during the Day and during the Night, all our lives.
In this way Allah says some of you stand steadfast in My remembrance during the times of wakefulness, in gratitude - Night or Day, except for the naps now and then as per My allowance to you. Therefore you are not the ones who calculate the Night and the Day. And until this day Allah had forgiven you for this and has turned to you in Mercy.

The Covenant Of Thur
2.63"And remember when We raised ?Thur? above you and took covenant from you and said, ?Have a firm hold on to what We have given you and ponder over it. So that you will become pious.?
Allah has raised ?Thur? above us before taking the covenant. The Covenant has the following agreement we shall have a firm hold on to what Allah had given to us over it. It is not ?A mountain?. But a word of promise of mountainous proportions from Allah that you will have power over it; and in the Name of Allah see all the benefits and beauty it has for you; its bountiful splendour I have showered upon it for you; they shall listen to your heart and echo your heart in action (34.10); wherever your hearts want falls from it, small or big, it must produce it then and there; when you want spacious pathway up the mountain, it shall pave way for you; all the splendor and beauty must flourish in their varieties according to your wish in the Name of Allah - it must echo you. You can make the mountains displace (13.31), make them fly and disperse them like the dispersion of clouds (27.8 into thin winds. You shall throw the mountains up in the sky and make them bang into each other and fall like a heap of sand and dust and spread it up without ups and downs thus erasing their very traces of their existence before. And you raise your plains into mountains that shall obey your wish, in the Name of Allah.
And thus, if you are a believer, believe that you need Him for the wishful liveliness of your wilfully obedient heart into which He had already breathed His Ruh, as His Wish and Will. And in the Name of Allah, the whole world, the skies and the earth shall echo it in our service and with subservience. Henceforth, have a firm hold on to the ?Thur? - The covenant of Thur.

Bar the Religions; Bat for Religiousness
"But whoever join a people, between who and you there is equanimity; or those who have come to you not willing to oppose you, nor willing to fight their own people ? for had Allah willed, He would have turned them against you; and, at that, they would have certainly fought against you. If they stayed away from you without fighting you, and wish peace with you ? then Allah allows not a way for you against them (4.90) "
This verse speaks about how a believer in Allah should conduct and behave with the rest of whole population who are not believers in Allah; feel the hearts of the people irrespective of one?s religion, religious appearance and ritualistic religious practices. The above verse endorses the righteous attitude to be practiced religiously dignifying your conscience that which satisfies The Most Religious, Allah.

Fulfil Allah's Promises
Allah will fulfil our PromisesFor the mankind's redeemed life on this earth, what Allah places before it is, to adhere to an agreement between Him and the mankind. The only proviso in this agreement is We are to fulfil Allah's Promises; and He will fulfil our promises.
"Fulfil My promise and I will fulfil your promise 2/40."
We are to remember what the promise was for our living on this earth by His bountiful Grace. The only agreement is that we are to fulfil His Promise; and in return, Allah's Promise upon us is His Grace, Bounteous.
Let us all listen and remember first what Allah Promises to us Every lively, beautiful and lasting Wish you harbour in your breasts all through your ives, are breathed into you by Me; and these are My promises to you which we are expected to fulfil.
And how to fulfil Allah's promises is to put the whole Grace, Blessings and Bestows back in His Trust without a moment's pause. Allah promises paradises from Him in exchange for our wealth and lives He gave us 9/111. Are we willing to whole heartedly accept to this deal of Allah, in its purest form? When our hearts surrender to this, then it is that we have surely kept His Promise; and Allah will Keep up His Promise Yes! Paradise for us in this earth and Paradises for us in the Next World too.

Brother Rahman, let us give up the flesh and get absorbed in Allah.

Being in Prayer all the time is Prayerfulness
And it is 'Timed Ordinance' until death.Allah sends down His Will upon the hearts of mankind, without let up through his every inspiration throughout life; and every 'Will' is bounties of His Treasures, never to let go off our hands; as the treasures of His Bounties are revealed to us, it happens as a flash and at that fraction of the moment our hearts become still and peaceful. We just feel this peace of mind very, very transiently, due to which either we lose the 'Light of Revelation or The Wahi' then and there or stay in that thought appreciating the Revelation for a very short while and then forgetting or dismissing it out unmindfully as worthless imaginations; this monumental loss is because of not being in the constant remembrance of Allah or being prayerful. In every fraction of our each inspiration, we are revealed of the Will of Allah with 'Peace or the word of Salam' from Him. This 'Salam' will be much felt by us off and on, at times of great stress due to fear or anxiety when we will be always prayerful, remembering Allah constantly in our each breath.
It is Allah who says 'Salam' to you during your apprehensive state of mind and we seek the same that which is proposed to us by the Almighty, turning to Him; how we seek the peace is where we deviate. If we are prayerful then we reply to Allah as this "O Allah there is none but You who can give me Salam; I surrender myself to You for peace; make me a Muslim unto You alone; and strengthen my 'Iman - the belief in Your word of Promise and make me a Mumin unto You alone." And only to this abject surrendering or prostration or sujud to the Will of Allah we receive the answer from Him. Allah is nearer to us than our hearts; and whoso believes in this and being in prayerful state all the time, shall intercede with Allah on his own behalf. Allah answers the call of such callers who call on Him.
On the contrary those who do the ritualistic prayer, they are like deaf, blind and dumb to His time of revelation or we ignore His call on us. Allah is ever watcher over our hearts and He cannot be cheated through the body languages of ritual prayers. Their prayer is a show unto others, while Allah is ever cognisant of what is in the breasts of each of us. Mankind is unlikely to falter in responding to the Call of Allah and shall not miss out on the time, if only they stay prayerful in their souls.
For example Allah ordains upon us, ?Keep up your humility for Me over your anger!? it is a timed ordinance ? unless we are believers and have fear for Allah we are likely to fall a prey to our own satanic influences and become angry with others. Timed prostration to the Will of Allah, or being prayerful, or the prayer conscience is lost there. If we fear Allah there is no need to fear about anything or any one in the world. Peace and protection from Allah follows us wherever we go for Allah is ever Keeper over His bondsmen.
4.103
Thus when you are strengthened in your faith, keep remembering Allah while standing, or sitting, or resting on your sides; and when the peaceful situation arrives surrender to His Will in time; surely to ?prostrating to His Will? is a timed ordinance upon the believers. -
Allah is Grateful, Appreciative
If you indeed love to acquire of the beautiful attributes of Allah such as
- Forgiveness of Him and
- The abstract Power of Him
Then upkeep the following
- Do good to others openly or secretly; and
- Forgive the wrong doers
What a great way to attain of the two attributes of Allah?
4.149
When you do a good openly or secretly or forgive the wrong @ ? for Allah indeed is Most Forgiving, All Powerful.@ Those who do such righteous deeds, their hearts are gratefully blessed by Allah of His attributes ? Forgiving and Mightiness.

If Muslims Fear disgrace and social kick out, Follow Isa
Whoever believes in Allah and His messengers and differentiate not between any of them, soon He will give them their reward; and Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Merciful 4/152.
Any one who fears disgrace, severe punishment and social kick out as the so called muslims do suffer today by what Allah has fore warned and decreed upon whoever ?adheres? to one messenger and turns away from another messenger, then follow Isa Taurat, Injeel 3/55 as is said in the Quran, so that Allah will make such Muslims exalted above every disbelieving Muslims, Jews, Christians and Sabians 2/62 in the world. Allah will Forgive the muslims and show them His Mercy.

Tranquility to you brother Fazlur,
I think amen's real meaning would actually appeal to your preaching and state of mind. That is acceptance and affinity. Hence to accept Allah is the "amen b'Allah" phrase, but very so by joining the realm and hence be of affinity with the prophets, decrees, angels and all the good people.
Remain faithful to our Rabb

Pledge belief in Isa, the Prophet
All through your life 3/554.159
And surely, none of the people of the Book shall die without believing in Isa, before he dies. Yet on the Last Hour, he would be a witness against them.People whose hearts die in disbelief, long before his death ? they die because of their anxiety, apprehension and fear against the peace and tranquility ensured by Allah all through their lives; thus they had killed themselves long before their real death; at the time of their true death, on seeing it before their eyes, the truth re-emerges from their souls saying Wish a rebirth! At this, they will surely long for it, and they would say If we are given another lease of life, we will become of the believers and do good deeds. But it is not to be so. In every one, at the time of death this truth will be glaring before them, making them dearly wish for a new life, believing in it totally ? it is because of the existence of the Truth, Isa, the son of Maryam, the messenger and the prophet of Allah had demonstrated by Allah's leave when he made the dead rise from the grave, the greatest Sign and the proof from Allah for the absolute belief. Whoso wish for a new lease of life because they were a disbelieving ones in Isa, the messenger and the prophet even as they possessed the Book, will cry on the Last Hour for a re-birth.
2530 But Isa, of the messengers would stand witness against them and say "God, my people had abandoned this ayat 3/55 of Quran."
Prayer O Allah, the God of the worlds! Make me a believer in Isa; and make me a believer in all of the prophets; and I am not to be among those who differentiate among the prophets.

All Diseases are due to our Eating
The Halal foods, made Haraam for us.4.161
And We have made the good foods We had allowed for them earlier as disagreeable to the Jews because of their sins; and because they obstructed most people from following the path of Allah.Most people in the world are suffering food caused problems; they cannot eat what they want because most foods do not agree to their digestion; this is because knowingly or unknowingly or wantonly we are hindering others from Allah?s way, as the Jews are doing. This is such a great sin before Allah that He had made most lawful foods as forbidden to us for life. Set right your heart in that we henceforth shall not argue intensely over Allah's ayats, for it is the work of the disbelievers. It makes most onlookers with an idle mind follow this way or that way, missing out on their own Allah's path. This is hindering the others from following Allah's Way. And in almost all religions there are divisions and sects made by the religious heads who divided one Mankind into various human races effecting hindrance, dissension and deviation.
In our hearts is the disease; and there are no physical or physiological diseases.as modern medicine describes; they will diagnose the diseases but not one disease can be cured; your digestion will never get set right for every food is haram for us; we are to starve to stay high and dry; we call it slim and fitness. Shun the people; turn to Allah in repentance for having followed one sect or the other or the way formulated by so called religious leaders; and We will see Allah as Most Forgiving, Merciful.

Correction to the ayat number referred to in the above post.......
4.161 4.160
And We have made the good foods We had allowed for them earlier as disagreeable to the Jews because of their sins; and because they obstructed most people from following the path of Allah. -
What is Halal? What is Haram? 53
Forbidden to us are the carrion, the blood, the swine flesh, what has been hallowed to other than God, the dead by strangling, the dead by beating, the dead by falling, the gored to death, and the devoured of the wild ? except that which you slaughtered@; and the execrable are ? that which are slaughtered on the altars; and the raffled by the divining arrows. This day, the disbelievers have lost the way from your guided path; so do not fear them; fear Me alone ? and this day, I have perfected your righteous path; and I have fulfilled My bestow upon you ? and for you I have chosen ?Peace? as the path. But if any of you without sinful intention forced to consume out of hunger, Allah is Oft Forgiving, Merciful.
@ The Blood is haram or harmful because at any given point of time it contains urine and evil materials with their live evil energy; therefore all the 24 hours the blood is subjected to the kidneys for continuous cleansing process; the livestock when slaughtered by neck properly with a sharp knife that causes no abrasions or crushing of arteries, all blood from their bodily parts flows out of them with minimal remnants of blood in them; but apart from this way of slaughtering, any other way or method of death to livestock, as mentioned in the above verse, whole blood remains as clots and jellies in their fleshes and in all of their minute blood vessels which is forbidden, for their fleshes now contain urine, evil materials and their live evil energies, which will cause all forms of allergies from skin to bones; and indigestion problems and later on liver, lung and kidney failures. People think that the bone marrow is tasty but hey are haram too; based on the fact that we have listened herein because it is one of the organs of blood production; the other organs is spleen ? these both parts of the cattle are haram; likewise the kidneys and the entire gastrointestinal system lodge in it the excreta; haram are the blood organ, the heart and the lungs; What remains as lawful to our bodily system is the flesh of the cattle and nothing else of them.
And above all the skin of the birds are again the biggest excretory organ with its perspiration and radiation of heat energy; normally we consume the roasted skin of the barbequed or the grilled chicken; it is better to avoid skin of the birds to stay healthy.

How To Read The Verses Of Quran?
5.13
"Then when they broke the covenant We cursed them; and We made their hearts harden. They alter the meanings of Our verses from their respective Signs; and they have forgotten a part of the admonition We have given them; therefore except for a few, you shall be constantly seeing the fulsomeness of the most of the people; so forgive and slight them aside. Allah certainly loves those who do good things."The verses of the scripture is meant for the guidance of the person who look up to it; and the bottom line for the comprehension of every word and verse of the scripture is the presenting situation of an individual who seeks help and protection from his God to save him and to conduct him in His straight path. But they ignored the real time, contextual comprehension of the verses; instead resorted to distorted timeline history for the verses of scripture; thus the rejecters broke a part of the covenant and rendered the scripture as futile 2/161. Curse be upon the religious leaders who concealed that which has been clarified in the scripture for the people.

Until We Find Our Respective Messengers ....,
5.15
O the people of the Book, ?Verily Our messenger@ has come to you; he will make clear to you of that which you cannot comprehend of the Book while leaving the rest; assuredly there has come to you from your God the Book clear, luminous?.@ Here Allah describes in the present tense about a messenger being with each people of various communities, speaking different languages 14/4 chosen from among the people of each community in every town; in all the cities, the capitals and the nations for all mankind and of all mankind. This means there had always been messengers before allover the world, there are messengers now allover the world, and there will ever be messengers allover the world, speaking ethnic languages foreign to arabic. And they will be known only to those who have the wisdom of the Book and to who Allah alone 13/43 shall be the witness. Wisdom has no language for it is the Truth itself which has to be felt, perceived, to be believed, to be ascertained through the Signs, by which belief shall further strengthen one?s identity in the path of Allah, so naturally; this nature becomes the inherent superior quality of the people with the wisdom of the Book for which Allah stands the only witness; the clear Sign of such people of wisdom is that they see their entire future crossing the boundaries of the present worldly life as luminous. Such are the messengers chosen by Allah, from among every ethnic population.
The Prayer O my God, show me my messenger of my language
And guide me with wisdom. -
Qurbani = Nearness to Allah
Adam = Mankind5.27
Narrate the incidence of the two descendants of the Adam; when they both sacrificed, from one of them it is accepted and it was not accepted from the other - said he, ?I will surely kill you!? Said the other verily Allah accepts only from those who fear Him.Adam is the first cropping up of mankind on the earth and follow up generations started with regeneration of mankind through men and women 29/20; and they became the descendants of Adam. The above narration is the example between any two religions, or between two groups, or the enmity between two individuals as the behaviour of the general public, the descendants of Adam. When any one is bestowed with the grace of Allah, because of his nearness to Him, the other becomes envious and grows even to become a killer. The nearness to Allah is possible only when we sacrifice the beliefs of this world?s ways and means of survival or association to Allah, but look up to Allah alone steadfast by His leave, for a glorious life thereafter.

Nothing to worry; nothing to rejoice Peace
Here is one of our brothers in Islam here has personally messaged for a solution to his problem; it is not his problem alone but the problem with many of us all our lives; this problem manifests either overtly or covertly lurking deep in the heart; either aware of or unaware of to one's own self. There is nothing to worry about this from the Quranic point of view and by the word of Allah.
Peace!
I am in quite a pickle right now. In 2011 I went into Fana and also entered the state of spiritual madness back in 2010-2011. This completed further down the line, Oct 2011 (entry into Fana). Because of this I'm involved with mental health services and they are giving me medications, which cure nothing and suppress the gentle Ruh, well, try to anyway.
I need to make a living for myself but I don't know where to begin. I have a job for the time being but somehow that doesn't feel like a long term option. I'd like to just move out into the world and start afresh, to open to Allah's vast mercy. I know I have earned enough works to release pure abundance of Goodness. But my pride has suddenly appeared after entering fana and it keeps getting in my way. How do I put my pride to my feet and walk towards Allah?
I keep getting the two choices. One to bow, one to turn away. That's all my Life is now, to choose one or the other. I choose an equal amount of each so I get stuck in the same situation. Obviously I need to step up and away from this situation but at the moment everything is quite fuzzy tempt. If I stay at my job, I gain one thing in the world (finances/organisation) and lose another thing in the world (time). If I stay at home I gain one thing in the world (dear hearted relationships), and lose another thing in the world (sanity). I have suspended my studies after realising that student loans do not help my case at all before Allah. Now next thing is next, some things have to go and some things have to begin. I need to tread very carefully. What do you advise?
If you have read this, then thank you very much for your time and energy, I hope to hear from you soon hmm peace

Believe in Allah for all the good things, and believe in yourself for all the evil to befall you 4/79 is the root factor for all or any of our presenting illnesses and adversities. Throughout our lives we have these two things clubbed together of which our belief in ourselves and in us (the entire service of all human knowledge) rules the roost. So we suffer from chaos, turbulence, melancholy and anxiety more in the mind with sparse distribution of off and on calmness scattered with mixed feelings 94/5,6 all the time i.e., the state of schizophrenia. In this way every person is having a split mind one, the inside face and the other the outside face with mixed temperaments.
Now the prayer is O The Expander, expand my heart 94/1; O the Enlightening, (94/3,4) lighten my heart by removing my burden of evil, I am shouldering.
Patience cures the mind of its split personality and brings us back to sanity and saneness; thinking process is put in order and all the forces in the heavens and in the skies and everything in between becomes subservient to you for Allah is with you; for He is with the Patient. Now you have a job at hand; be patient and stick to the job until such time Allah delivers you by His Mercy to a higher position of His choice. Have patience in your present job; and continue your studies until Allah elevates you with His Wisdom. We do not know how but it is there since the word of Allah is there in your heart. Get along with all your worldly activities (39/35, 53) while trusting your God for the best outcome.
Prayer O God, The Most Truthful, Trustworthy. O You who Reveals, O the Guide, guide me unto You with Sight Clear.

Use Furqaan To Learn Quran
5.46 And We made Isa, son of Maryam to fall in with all the prophets and testify the Taurat that was before him; and We gave him Injeel; in it was Guidance and Light; and it stood testimony to the Taurat that was before him; and it is a guidance and portent for the pious.
This verse stresses the decree upon every prophet from the first to the last that they shall follow the scripture sent down to the prophets before them and for the people before them; for example here, Isa, son of Maryam was asked to follow the Taurat sent down to the prophet Musa before him for the people before him, the people of Israel. Likewise Musa was asked to follow the scripture sent down upon the prophet before him for the people before him. To confirm the scripture before Musa, he was given the Taurat; and for Isa, son of Maryam Injeel was given to confirm the Taurat before him. Finally to the last Prophet Quran was revealed to confirm all the Scriptures from the first prophet to the prophet of Injeel. The distinguishing ability, the ?Furqaan? from Allah (33 , 34) has been bestowed upon every individual as an endowment by Allah Himself that shall have to be used as the criterion individually, as a comprehensive proof to extract God?s words from every scripture 482 or to beat up the attempts to remove the verses, and to preserve the verses removed or to strike away those sentences as verses injected by the evil men after each prophet?s life on this earth.
