Sorah Al-'alaq ( The Clot ) - Verses Number 19
اقْرَأْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّكَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ ( 1 ) 
Proclaim! (or read!) in the name of thy Lord and Cherisher, Who created-
خَلَقَ الْإِنسَانَ مِنْ عَلَقٍ ( 2 )
Created man, out of a (mere) clot of congealed blood:
اقْرَأْ وَرَبُّكَ الْأَكْرَمُ ( 3 )
Proclaim! And thy Lord is Most Bountiful,-
الَّذِي عَلَّمَ بِالْقَلَمِ ( 4 )
He Who taught (the use of) the pen,-
عَلَّمَ الْإِنسَانَ مَا لَمْ يَعْلَمْ ( 5 )
Taught man that which he knew not.
كَلَّا إِنَّ الْإِنسَانَ لَيَطْغَىٰ ( 6 )
Nay, but man doth transgress all bounds,
أَن رَّآهُ اسْتَغْنَىٰ ( 7 )
In that he looketh upon himself as self-sufficient.
إِنَّ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ الرُّجْعَىٰ ( 8 )
Verily, to thy Lord is the return (of all).
أَرَأَيْتَ الَّذِي يَنْهَىٰ ( 9 )
Seest thou one who forbids-
عَبْدًا إِذَا صَلَّىٰ ( 10 )
A votary when he (turns) to pray?
أَرَأَيْتَ إِن كَانَ عَلَى الْهُدَىٰ ( 11 )
Seest thou if he is on (the road of) Guidance?-
أَوْ أَمَرَ بِالتَّقْوَىٰ ( 12 )
Or enjoins Righteousness?
أَرَأَيْتَ إِن كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ ( 13 )
Seest thou if he denies (Truth) and turns away?
أَلَمْ يَعْلَم بِأَنَّ اللَّهَ يَرَىٰ ( 14 )
Knoweth he not that Allah doth see?
كَلَّا لَئِن لَّمْ يَنتَهِ لَنَسْفَعًا بِالنَّاصِيَةِ ( 15 )
Let him beware! If he desist not, We will drag him by the forelock,-
نَاصِيَةٍ كَاذِبَةٍ خَاطِئَةٍ ( 16 )
A lying, sinful forelock!
فَلْيَدْعُ نَادِيَهُ ( 17 )
Then, let him call (for help) to his council (of comrades):
سَنَدْعُ الزَّبَانِيَةَ ( 18 )
We will call on the angels of punishment (to deal with him)!
كَلَّا لَا تُطِعْهُ وَاسْجُدْ وَاقْتَرِب ۩ ( 19 )
Day, heed him not: But bow down in adoration, and bring thyself the closer (to Allah)!

- Etiquettes of a Muslim on FridayMany people are unaware of what the etiquette of a Muslim on Friday should be and most are unaware of its significance. Most do not consider the Friday Prayer as obligatory, hence they miss it intentionally. Many people in Islamic countries are on holiday on this day, so then spend their time sleeping, or in other activities that cause them to neglect the Friday prayer altogether. They do not realise the significance of the Friday Prayer and its sermon, and they come to the mosque according to their own wishes and desire. Most of them are unaware of what is required from a Muslim before or after the Friday Prayer. It is with these concerns in mind that this book has been written.

- The ruling concerning Mawlid an-NabawiIn this book, Shaikh Saleh al-Fawzan has enumerated several reasons behind the prohibition of celebrating the Mawlid, and explicitly clarified the major doubts raised up by the proponents of Mawlid; and this includes the claims that, Celebration of Mawlid is honouring the Prophet, Mawlid is celebrated by a large number of people in many towns and cities, Commemorating Mawlid renews the memories of the Prophet, Mawlid is a Bidah Husna (good innovation) because it is a means of showing gratitude towards Allah for sending the Prophet. The saying of Umar, ‘What a good Bidah is this?’ Celebration of Mawlid an-Nabawi is out of love for the Prophet and an expression of one's love, which is permissible.
