Surah Al-Waqiah 56: - (The Imminent Event)

With the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Most-Merciful

We have created you; then why do you not appreciate it as true? [57]
So, tell Me about the s e m e n you drop (in the wombs): [58]
Is it you who create it, or are We the Creator? [59]

COMMENTARY: Neither of the parents [especially the mother in whose womb all this is taking place] knows whether the child is a boy or a girl, until it is born.

The question is: Who creates the child in the womb of the mother, creation after creation, within three darknesses [ie the darkness of belly, the darkness of womb and the darkness of amniotic membrane]? Who made it beautiful, gave it the power of hearing and sight? Who bestowed on it the faculty of thinking and comprehension? Only a mentally blind person will fail to exclaim: "Blessed is Allah, the Best of Creators!"

~ MA'AARIFUL QUR'AAN ~

O Allah, I appreciate your provision despite my sins...
For I have seen children search in bins...

Why do we say that someone who is fired gets the sack?

The ancient Romans didn't believe in mollycoddling convicted felons. Rehabilitation wasn't their style. Those convicted of parricide or other heinous murders were tied in a sack and dumped into the Tiber River, instantly solving any potential recidivism problem. The practice spread throughout many other European countries, and, as late as the nineteenth century, murderers in Turkey were tossed into the Bosporus in a sack. To get the sack, then, probably was used figuratively as a threat of any sort of punishment, such as losing one's job.

Another theory to explain how 'get the sack' was recorded — as early as 1611 in France — is that it referred to craftsmen of the Middle Ages. Artisans carried their tools in sacks; while they worked, they handed the sacks to their employers. When a craftsman got the sack, it meant that his services no longer were required. He was left, literally, holding the bag.
