SURAH AL-MURSALAAT - (Those Sent) - 77
In the name of Allah, the All-Merciful, the Very-Merciful

It emits sparks (as huge) as castles, [32]
as if they were yellowish camels. [33]
Woe, that Day, to the deniers! [34]

COMMENTARY: (It emits sparks [as huge] as castles...77:32) The word Qasr means a 'huge, magnificent castle'. The word Jimalah is used in the sense of jamal, and means 'camel'. The word Sufr is the plural of Asfar which means 'yellow'. The verse describes the fire of Hell. It will emit such huge sparks of fire, as if they were huge and magnificent castles. Then they will break up into little splinters, as if they were yellowish camels. Some scholars have translated the word 'Sufr' as 'black' because yellowish colour of camels tends to blackness. [Ruh]

THE MESSAGE
GIVING UP SINS: An Easy Prescription
by Maulana Yunus Patel Saheb

-------------------------------
There are many, many Muslim brothers and sisters throughout the world who due to various negative influences and bad elements, find themselves ‘de-railed’ from Deen. Many others sit on the fence, wanting to enjoy or benefit from both sides of the fence – engaging in sins as well as being practical on certain teachings of Deen. However, deep in their hearts is the desire to get back on track, and once again become good, practical Muslims; to jump off the fence and enjoy the green pastures of Islam. So they write, e-mail, phone, fax seeking guidance and direction.

The main weakness is indulgence in sins; sometimes many sins and excessive indulgence in those sins. A standard prescription that I give as a reply, is as follows. Alhamdulillah, many who followed through with the prescription have found a whole new life – of peace, happiness, blessings and mercy. On tasting the sweetness that comes with obedience, there is no desire to return to any form of disobedience.

The ideal is that we abstain from sins, out of love for Allah Ta’ala. He has granted us so much – He has granted us everything and it is the nature of human beings that we love the person that is kind and generous to us. Then what of Allah Ta’ala who has provided us with plentiful – with everything? The sight, hearing, speech, the organs that are functioning in such an amazing manner, the limbs - all in our service – for eating, drinking, walking, sitting, etc. The gifts of wealth : the clothing, shelter, transport, food, drink, and so many other comforts. …We use them all, but do we keep in mind, the Generous Benefactor? Do we give thanks for these bounties or show any appreciation to the Giver? read more

HANDY HINT
HAVE A SPLINTER?
------------------
Don’t use the sewing needle! Just cut a small piece of fresh onion and place it on the padded part of a bandage, wrap it around the splintered skin and leave it overnight. By morning, the onion will have drawn the splinter to the surface, making it easy to remove with a pair of tweezers.
