Worldly life, and remedies forworldly misfortune  ( 5 items ) We have made all that is on Earth an ornament thereof that we may test them: which of them is best in conduct. Verily, We shall make all that is thereon a barren mound. (18:7 8) The Divine Essence, and Unity  ( 5 items ) This Word was written to enlighten the blind soul by pointing out four rays from the light of the above verses. The rays dispel darkness and give conviction and certainty. The Clash Between Angels and Devil  ( 9 items ) Just as Earth has its own inhabitants, reality and wisdom require that the heavens have theirs. In Islam, such beings are called angels The Paradise  ( 7 items ) Below are brief answers to questions about Paradise, which is everlasting. The Qur'anic descriptions, which are more beautiful than Paradise, more delightful than its houris, and sweeter than its springs' pleasant water, leave nothing to be added. The Spirit, Angels, the Afterlife  ( 11 items ) This treatise consists of an Introduction and two chapters of Aims and is about the spirit and angels, and the afterlife The Resurrection and the Hereafter  ( 1 items ) If you wish to hear about the Resurrection and the Hereafter in simple everyday language and style, listen to the following parable: Two people went to a Paradise-like land (this world). The Resurrection: Twelve Pictures  ( 12 items ) Could such a magnificent kingdom not have a system of reward for those who obey and of punishment for those who rebel? As reward and punishment are virtually non-existent here, there must be a Supreme Tribunal somewhere else. The Resurrection: Four Indications  ( 17 items ) The worst error and misguidance of each group lies in not recognizing God. As the believer in our parable said: “There can be no letter without a scribe, no law without a legislator.” We affirm this. The Resurrection: Addendum  ( 10 items ) These sublime, God-revealed verses, high and sacred proofs of the Resurrection’s reality, establish one pole of the belief. From those proofs, one significant argument is here set forth. Ascension  ( 6 items ) After mentioning the Prophet’s journey from the Masjid al-Haram in Makka to the Masjid al-Aqsa’ in Jerusalem (the beginning of his Ascen-sion), the Qur’an concludes: Surely He is All-Hearing, All-Seeing. The pronoun He in Surely He is, which alludes to the furthest point of the Ascension which is indicated in 53:4-18 above, refers either to Almighty God or the Prophet. Creation  ( 34 items ) We would like a brief, concise explanation of how humanity (the microcosm) and the universe (the macrocosm) point to God's necessary Existence and Unity, as well as His Lordship's essential Qualities and Attributes, which the two parts of the comprehensive verse above denote.
