74. They have not estimated All�h His Rightful Estimate; Verily, All�h is All-Strong, All-Mighty. 75. All�h chooses Messengers from angels and from men. Verily, All�h is All-Hearer, All-Seer. 76. He knows what is before them, and what is behind them. And to All�h return all matters (for decision). 77. O you who believe! Bow down, and prostrate yourselves, and worship your Lord and do good that you may be successful. 78. And strive hard in All�h's Cause as you ought to strive (with sincerity and with all your efforts that His Name should be superior). He has chosen you (to convey His Message of Isl�mic Monotheism to mankind by inviting them to His religion, Isl�m), and has not laid upon you in religion any hardship, it is the religion of your father Ibrahim (Abraham) (Isl�mic Monotheism). It is He (All�h) Who has named you Muslims both before and in this (the Qur'�n), that the Messenger (Muhammad SAW) may be a witness over you and you be witnesses over mankind! So perform AsSal�t (Iqamat-as-Sal�t), give Zak�t and hold fast to All�h [i.e. have confidence in All�h, and depend upon Him in all your affairs] He is your Maula (Patron, Lord, etc.), what an Excellent Maula (Patron, Lord, etc.) and what an Excellent Helper! ----------------------------------------------------- English translation taken from: "Noble Quran" IF YOU LOVE
ALLAH. I knelt to pray but not for long, I had too much to do. I had to hurry and get to work For bills would soon be due. So I knelt and said a hurried prayer, And jumped up off my knees. My Muslim duty was now done My soul could rest at ease. All day long I had no time To spread a word of cheer. No time to speak of Allah to friends, They'd laugh at me I'd fear. No time, no time, too much to do, That was my constant cry, No time to give to souls in need But at last the time, the time to die. I went before the Lord, I came, I stood with downcast eyes. For in his hands God held a book; It was the book of life. God looked into his book and said Your name I cannot find. I once was going to write it down... But never found the time"
