    I think noon has marked with arrows in interrupted line in white and in the last with an interrupted line square in red.

    To me it looks like tremendous and courageous effort to go through that script, which does not look as awful as other old manuscripts, but still. It takes a lot of determination to follow and match the whole thing. Great work indeed.

    Salaam

    Sadly my poor knowledge of the arabic language, i failed to understand his response. -[

        peace,

        indeed beautiful work and wonderful effort by brother noon.

        No doubt his works are very good. By the way people think that word ''God'' is actually a name. I honestly don't think so. I wouldn't be surprised if it's not a name but title of divine.

            What does Tao mean? What language is Tao?

                  Salam everyone, This question involves Kashif's article in this forum

                  In the comments, one person (which i will not name for the sake of privacy of that person) questioned Kashif

                  The questioner

                  Brother Kashif, Salam. One point I could not make clear. If Allah is not illah (not to worship but to Serve), then why in Sura Naas he is telling Aauzu Be Rabbinnaas, Malikinnaas, ILAHINNAAS?

                  Kashif's response

                  I will reiterate to study my articles before raising any question. We don't read the Quran with our own eyes but blindly follow "Tasreef-e-Aayaat" in which instead to understand the Quran at the spot where it is being explained something, we instantly jump to the other verses of the same words ignoring their contexts. This is same as if we move our finger along the lines and read "Bismillah" on all Quranic words instead of pronouncing them. Hence, "Tasreef-e-Aayaat" was given by anti-Quran Manichean polytheist pagans to balance their lies what they have invented in the fake translations. I still did not write on Surah Al Naas which I will soon Insha Allah but according to their grammatical formations the phrases " " (Bi Rabbin Naas), " " (Malik An Naas) and " " (Ilahi aannas) are coming in three consecutive independent verses without conjunction "" (wao), Which means that this Surah Al Naas is talking about three different things "" (Sustainer), "" (Ruler or King) and "" (deity) are obsessed by people (&#1616 to get protection (&#1615 against spark of their obsessed fear.

                  What do you think brothers & sisters of mankind?

                    We are not asked to seek refuge from three different entities but to seek refuge with rabunnas who is malikunnas and ilahunas, from the evil of the whispering of al-khannas.

                    So I don't know what Kashif is upto.

                    Regarding tasreef ul ayat we find in the Quran that Allah has used tasreef ul ayat to explain us the Quran.

                        Kashif's suggestion that as it is, without a "wa",we are in front of three different entities but that if there were a "wa" before malikinnass and ilahinnas t hat it would would be the same entity dumbfounds me.

                        For there to be three different entitities we should seek refuge with, I feel that there should be a repetion of the "bi" and a wa, that is, "wa bi rabinnas wa bi malikannas".

                                I wonder, can the word ilah (&#1607 mean divine? I read on of Wakas (i think it was him) articles and this is from that article

                                From http//mypercept.co.uk/articles/slw.htm

                                An understanding of salat from Al Quran (The Reading)

                                With the name/assistance of The God/Divine, The Almighty/Originator, The Merciful/Embracing (I begin)
                                Bismi Allahi ar-rahmani ar-raheemi

                                Now this looks like the Al & Ilah contraction so i wonder could ilah (&#1607 also mean divine?

                                P.S I do NOT deny the divine, i acknowledge Allah/God (SWTAY) as The Divine Infinite Creator.
