A Holy Eulogy
An Interpretive Rhymed English Refraction1 Of Dua2 Nudba3
By Shaykh Ali Abu-Talib Son Of AbdunNur
We Seek Refuge With Allah From The Satan The Stoned.
Harbor Us Lord For By You We Are Owned
Oh Allah, Bless Muhammads Soul
And Rain Down Peace On His Household
For Your Light Shines Brightest Near Muhammads Vast Soul
And Its Meaning Refracts Clearly Through His Households Chaste Role.

Oh Son Of Hasan, Muhammads 12th Son In Sequence,

Our poor souls need to stand where your auspiciousness frequents.
Only the promise of your return enables my spirits transcendence.
Oh how I long to bask in your halos immaculate resplendence.

Holy Eulogy, is not an verbatim translation of Dua Nudba. A word for word rendering of the Quran,
and high Arabic poetry from Arabic to English cant represent the beauty and deep meaning of The
original. The etymological roots of the two languages are most often very different. For instance; the
Arabic word Niyah is usually translated as Intention. But another connotation of the word means to
become very determined. The multitiered levels of meaning, eloquently indicative of fine Arabic literature
is virtually impossible to communicate in a simple word for word English translation. However, The basic
meaning of of these classical Arabic texts are universal. So the challenge is to pen an explanatory,
religiously artistic rendering refracting The Originals Light without conceptual distortion.
Thus A Holy Eulogy is my humble attempt to refract the luminous essence of this important and famous
supplication in rhyme and verse. I intend to capture as much meaning of the eloquent, universally
relevant meaning of Dua Nudba as I can, employing artistry, wed with devout scholarship. Ive taken
every effort not to sacrifice the meaning of the Arabic original in the use of poetic license. However the
use of poetic license to produce a poetic rendering was and always is unavoidable, rhymed or not. I
endeavored to use poetic license as a tool to explain the fine points of meaning implied in the original. I
also included a few tangent points that are coherent to the theme and contemporarily relevant to native
English speakers.
The Praise Belongs To The Creator of The Motivation And Energy That Creative Souls Use To Capitalize
On God Given Inspiration. And whatever blame is due to my lack of infallible talent, I beg your indulgence.
Please forgive any unintended error. ! pray you find this work of faith and love educational, inspirational,
motivational, and that you use it to pray to God in The English Language in The Mumin Tradition. Please
send a loud Salawat for the poor soul who undertook this task, whenever you read this work. InShaAllah.

Usually the Arabic word dua is translated to mean prayer, or supplication. In this case it is more of an
eulogy than a prayer for one thing or the other. This Prayerful Eulogy orbits around the primordial issue of
Khalifah (Successorship), And Imammah (Leadership), which is essential to The Islamic Faith.
3The

Arabic word nudba litterally translates to eulogy, lamentation, dirge, or a mourning song
Friday... The Day of Jummah... is an Eid Day... a weekly Muslim Holiday. Friday is closely associated with
The Hidden Living Imam Of The Time (A). His birth fell on Jummah. His reappearance is predicted to
coincide with Jummah. His Ziyarat is recited on Jummah, and Dua Nudba is traditionally recited on
Jummah after congregational PreDawn (Fajr) Salat. Cemeteries are traditionally visited on Jummah.

I pray Salawat 4 on all of Our Prophets innocent descendants,

And long for my Hidden Masters long awaited ascendence.
And The Praise Is To Allah, Lord Of The Nations.5
May Truths Light Brighten All Blessed Mumin 6 Stations
With The Halo of Muhammad And His Households Salutations.
Oh Allah Bless Muhammads Soul And Rain Down Peace On His Household.
And We Give You The Praise, Oh Creator, As Your Faithful Creations,
Oh Ever Present Merciful Lord Of The Nations.
We Pay Homage To You For The Path You Decreed
For Your Self, For Your Pure Friends, 7 And Your Soul Saving Creed.
Youve Blessed Them With Whats Best... What Will Forever Endure...
What Will Never Disappear or Lessen In Utility And Grandeur
After You Decreed God Consciousness On Them, Certain And Clear,
And They Agreed That This Life Is Inferior, Holding The Ultimate Life Dear.
And They Took On This Decree And All It Entails,
And Rejected The Illusions Of These Timed Earthly Jails.
And You Knew Theyd Be True To What They Agreed.
So You Let Them Come Close (In Thought, Word, And Deed)8 ...
Allowing Them To Reflect On Your Most Sublime Presence
Ever Turning Towards You With The Whole Of Their Essence...
The Souls Revolution Of Consciousness, Conscience, And Behavior...
Ever Turning Towards, And Praising The Loved Lord, God, And Savior. 9

Salawat = I see it as a rain of light, peace, and other blessings on ones soul. I believe Salawat
intensifies ones Aura (Nur). In the case of a Nur (Halo) which is already perfect, the benefit reflect back
on the one who wishes it on the perfect soul.
5

Alalameen = The Worlds, The Nations, The Universe... The root of the word, (Ilm) means Knowledge..

Mumin, Believer, Faithful Muslim Whos inseparably connected to The Waliyah of Imam Ali Ibn Abu Talib

(Gods) Purified Friends = Auliya = sometimes translated as Saints

Since this work is meant to be read with the proper feeling, any reciter must recognize and treat all
explanatory parenthetical phrases and sentences, as part of the text to maintain the intended flow. They
are merely devices I use to maintain the rhyme and rhythm of the piece, while adding what would be
footnoted information... thus the use of the term refraction.
9

The Arabic word thana is so rich, an multitiered, I felt compelled to embellish on the theme.

And Your Angels Channeled The Light That Shone Forth From Them
Presenting Inspiration And Knowledge You Generously Honed For Them.
And You Made Their Light The Medium For Men And Jinn To Transcend
Towards Your Presence With Angels... Pleasing You Without End.
Then You Lodged Some In Your Garden Till You Decreed They Depart.
And You Saved Another And His People Lodging Them In Your Ark.
And You Then Chose Another For Your Confidant And Friend,
Who Prayed To Be Remembered By His Spiritual Kin.
So You Made All Generations Religiously Commend
His Legacy As A Thikr 10 (For Faithful Women and Men).
And You Spoke To One From A Tree Which You (Miraculously) Voiced Through,
And Made His Brother An Aid In The Affair (So Pharaoh Could Not
Misconstrue). 11
And Another Was Begotten, Without A (Biological) Father 12
(Proof That Your Will Comes To Pass Without Any Bother).
And You Gave Him The Power To Explain And Expound,
Helped By The Archangel, The Holy Ghost, You Sent Down
Along With Your Code Of Law (Clear Signs of Your Justice),
And A Path He Traversed (To Spread Justice Amongst Us).
And You Chose His Successors Steeped In Deep Adoration...
Scriptural Guardian After Guardian For Each Dispensation
To Establish Deyn13 With Truths Proofs In Nation After Nation,
So Right Minds Can Fight Wrong With Truths Rationality,
Maintaining Truths Station As Obvious Actuality.
Thus, None Can Complain That If Youd Sent Them A Warning,
Theyd Have Followed Sincerely LIke Day Follows Dawning...
If Sent Them A Guide Guarding A Scripture (That Gods Grace Did Adorn),
10

Thikr = The Word translates to remembrance. Its come to mean speaking or chanting words,
phrases, and Quranic Verses that turns a soul towards Gods Ever Presence and dramatically reflects on
Him. It is said that the best thikr is The Quran in which The Legacy of The Great Patriarch Of Faithful
Muslims, Our Holy Father Ibrahim, Abraham The Khaleel (Confidant - Friend) of God is forever enshrined.
11

Aaron, Moses Brother Spoke Eloquently While Moses Allegedly Had A Speech Impediment (S).

12

Jesus Son Of Mary (A)

13

deyn = Religion

Before Wrongs Shame And Hells Pain Made Them Damned And Forlorn.
Then You Ended (Their Era14) With The (Existential) Command15
Given To Muhammad, Your Most Cherished, Best Blessed Beloved Man.
Oh Allah Bless Muhammads Soul And Rain Down Peace On His Household.
As You Intended, He Is (The Peak of Positive Human Proclivity)
The Master Of Your Creation (And The Masterpiece Of Your Creativity),
The Purest Of Your Select... The Favorite Of Those Whom You Rose,
And The Noblest, Most Generous Of Those You Trusted (Then Chose).
He Was The Last Of Your Prophets, Though His Essence Preceded Them.
And You Preferred Him Over Them, For Their Halos Succeeded Him.16
And You Dispatched Him To Your Most Cognitive (Troublesome) Slaves
(To Winnow The Good Jinn And Men From The Evil Villainous Knaves).
And He Lowered17 East And West (Your Orient And Occident),
And Rode A Winged Steed On His Wonder Filled Night Assent),
And He Warped (Space, And Time) With His Masters Omnipotent Consent 18
Where You Taught Him What Was, And What Will Be... Event After Event
To The End Of Your Creation... Then Helped Him With The Fear
(Thats A Ward Against Foes And What Makes Wisdom Draw Near 19).
Then You Surrounded Him (Against All Evil Actualities)
With Gabriel And Michael (The Chief Celestial Principalities),

14

The Prophetic Era... Muhammad was the Final Prophet... there will be no others

15

The Existential Command Is KUN = BE. Allah Says To A Thing Be And It Becomes.

16

I embellished these two verses because the phrase Qadmtahu is so dense with meaning. The
Prophet Muhammads Nur Was The First Created Thing In The Universe. The Arabic word Nur translates
to Light. From that Light (or primordial halo), all else was generated, as in Let There Be Light. See
Hayatul Qulub Book 2 Chapter entitled Creation Of Effulgence.
17

Autahu = He lowered... I take this to mean that as he ascended, the heavens bowed to meet Gods
Final Prophet. That phrase also reminds me of the quantum physics theory of folding space and time.
This was the way I read it. God knows best, and he certainly bestowed the meaning on The Holy House.
18

Buraq was the proper name of the winged steed Prophet rode on his Night Journey from Mecca to
Medina, and then trans-dimensionally warped to heaven and hell. He then was beckoned further until
Muhammad reached the closest any creature could come to... THE VERY THRONE OF GOD.
19

It was this fear that kept many statue worshipers at bay, and it was a higher fear that brought many a
soul to submit to The Truth by and by. The First Step To Wisdom Is Fear Of The Lord... (Proverbs 9:10).

And Angels Whose Deeds Made Their Mark (As Archangel Commonalities).
And Even Though Truth Hiders Would Hate (These Predestined Eventualities),
You Assured Him That It Was Already Fated... That You Primordially Designated
That All Other Religions Were Primordially Fated To Be Numerically Dominated
By His Religion Which Was, At The Time, Very Unpopular And Nearly Eliminated).
You Did This After You Settled Him In A Position That Was Honest And Elevated
(And With Your Aid, The Doubts Of Some In His Clan Gradually Abated
And Their Spiritual Respect For Him Meteorically Escalated).
And You Made For Him And Them A Premier House Void Of All Vanity
Established For (The The Purpose of Guiding The Humanity)
(A House Destined To Rise Souls Above Mans Hubristic Insanity)
Linked Up With (Gods First House Of Worship And Laudable Urbanity)20
The Place Where Abraham Stood To Pray Is In it.
And To This Day Everyone Is Assured Sanctuary WithIn it.
And You Stated (To Your Final Messenger And His Closest Kin)
That You Wanted To Keep From Them All Impurities (And Sin).
So That The Members Of That Household Remained Immaculate
Without And Within.
Then You Decreed That The Remuneration
We Owe Muhammad (For Being The Incarnation
Of Gods Mercy And Guidance To All Of The Nations)
Was As You Said In Your Book, Say I Ask Of You No Pay
Except Love For My Closest Kin, (The Very Ones They Did Betray).
Oh Allah Bless Muhammads Soul And Rain Down Peace On His Household.
And In The Book It Is Written That You, Lord, Did Say,
What Ever Reward I Asked You To Pay
Is For Your Souls Good Now, And On The Deyns Day.
And It Is Also Written That You Lord Did Say,
Those Whose Will Is Bent Towards His Lords Straight Way,
Are The Only Exceptions From Whom I Ask Pay.

20

Bekkah, the most ancient name of Mecca. Some say it is name of the other worldly precinct housing
the other worldly Kabba.

(In Other Words, Those Whom God Sues To Fork Over The Prophet His Pay...
That Pay Being Love For His Kin Who Embody The Favored Straight Way...
Are Compelled To Love Them Just So The Ever Present Lover Will Pay
The Lovers Of Gods Lovers A Spiritually Sweet God Sent Bouquet...
Which Is Everlasting Love For The Truth And Truth Lovers (Who Hear And Obey)
So (Without One Shadow Of A Doubt)
Prophets House And Those Who Believe In Their God Ordained Clout
Became (The Standout Most Devout) Rout
To You And Your Pleasure, Oh Allah, Which Is Religiously What Faiths All About.
Then Alas, When The End of His Days Came To Pass
Prophet Appointed A Deputy To Continue The Muhammadan Task...
(That Deputy Was) Ali Son Of Abu Talib... Your Knowing Glowing Flow
Be Upon Them And Their Household (From All Sides, Above, And Below).
Ali Is The Guide (To Know And Flow Towards The Ultimate Goal).
Just As Prophet Is The Warner God Sent To Humanitys Soul,
Ali Son Of Abu Talib Has A Similar Role.
(Allah Sent) Ali As A Guide To Every Nation, And Tribe.
So Prophet Told The People What Allah Did Prescribe,
As The People Stood There Before Him
Alert And Rapt As If They Adored Him.
Then With Alis Hand Raised High,
Prophet Raised His Voice To The Sky
And Said:
All Those Who Takes Me As Their Superior
(Know That) Their Rank Next To Ali, Is Equally Inferior.
Oh Allah, Befriend Whomever Befriends Him
And Oppose Whomever Opposes Him.
And Support Whomever Supports Him
And Desert Whomever Deserts Him.
And (Another Time) Prophet Said,
All Those I Am A Prophet To,
Know That Ali Is The Amir 21 Of All Of You

21

Amir = A military rank... Commander or Prince

And He Also Said,

I And Ali Are From One And The Same Tree,
And All Else Are From Different Trees Than Ali And Me.
And God Assigned To Ali That Rank That Aaron Had To Musa,
Then Prophet Reminded Ali That His Rank Was Like Aarons Was To Musa
Except That It Is Gods Will... That Will That Holds Archangels In Awe...
That There Will Be No More Prophets Sent... Its Gods Will And Gods Law.
And He Wed His Daughter, The Mistress Of Universal Femininity
To Ali (The Epitome, After Prophet, Of Universal Masculinity).
Ali Was Permitted The Same Freedom As The Prophet Within The Masjid
(Due To His Obvious Paternal Consanguinity)22
And His Affinity For Gods Ever Present Divinity.
While All Other Doors With Private Access To That Very Same Vicinity
Were Sealed By Order of The Owner Of Inconceivable Infinity.
And Prophet Entrusted Ali With His Knowledge,
And The Blessing To Know That He Knew, 23
Then Prophet Defined Himself As Truths College24
And That Ali Was The Entrance To All It Held True.
So Whoever Would Enter The City Of Knowledge
Must Pass Through The Gate (On Masumeen25 Avenue).
Then He Said,
You Are My Brother, And Youre My Trustee,
And Youre He Wholl Inherit (My Mantle) From Me
You Are From Me... From My Flesh, Blood, And Core,26

22

Consanguinity = Ancestral Relagionship

23

Prophet Muhammad Entrusted Ali, The Spirit Leader (Imam) Of The Pious God Conscious People, With
His Knowledge And Wisdom. He Who Knows And Knows That He Knows Is Wise, Follow Him. A saying
alleged to have been uttered by Gung Futzoo (Confucius).
24

Prophet Said I Am The City Of Knowledge And Ali Is Its Bab (Gate, Door, Portal).

25

Masumeen = Those who are innocent, chaste, and (or) sinless, which is one of the attributes of Ali Ibn
Abu Talib. Oh Allah Bless Muhammads Soul And Rain Down Peace On His Household. For Your Light
Shines Brightest Near Muhammads Vast Soul And Its Meaning Refract Clearly Through His Households
Chaste Role. Surely Allahs Greatness Defies All Attempts At Description, And To Attempt So Can Merit
Just Foul, Foolish Fiction.
26

Prophet Said Your Flesh Is My Flesh And You Blood Is My Blood.

And Your Peace, Is My Peace, And Your War Is My War,

And True Faith Is Mixed With Your Flesh And Your Blood,
Just As True Faith Is Mixed With My Flesh And My Blood.
And Youll Be My Khaleefah27 (When Im Sent To AlKauthar 28)
And Youll Fulfill My Debts, And My Oaths (When I Come To That Reservoir).
And Your Shia Will Ring Round Me (Glowing With Truth)...
On Pulpits Of Light... Heavens Best Brilliant Youth...
And Theyll Be My Neighbors (In Gods Blessings And Ruth).
(Gods Reward For) Your Shia (True Companions Of Sooth 29).
Oh Ali!, Without You, The Believers Could Never Be Known.
For Youre The Guide After Me (To What God Does And Doesent Condone).
Alis The Way The Wayward Must Find Or Be Forever Lost-Prone.
(Hes) Light For The Blind, Gods (Flexible) Rope (Yet Stronger Than Stone).
The Flesh And Blood Of Ali Is Gods Messengers Own.
And In Matters Of Religion, Ali Stands Alone.
Hes The Incarnated... Embodied... Favored Straight Path
(Leading To Gods Grace And Away From His Wrath).
He Is Ever Peerless In Consciousness, Conscience, And Behavior,
Because Hes Closest To Gods Messenger, Creations Great Savior.
Oh Allah Bless Both Of Their Souls, And Rain Down Peace on Their Household.
Furthermore, Alis Fights Were Based On Qurans Right Interpretation.
No Fault Finders Condemnation Could Dampen His Determination
To Strive For Gods Way In Any Confrontation
To Establish Or Defend Rights Practical Application.
He Wreaked Terrible Calamity On The Arabs In Each Man To Man Altercation.
He Lethally Charged Into Their Skilled, Strong Willed30 Horde Without Hesitation.
27

Khaleefah or Caliph = Successor

28

AlKauthar is the heavenly body of water provided for the most blessed to drink from in The Garden of
Paradise. It is also the nickname of Fatimah The Daughter of Prophet Muhammad.
29
30

Sooth is an archaic Old English word of Germanic origin meaning truth.

Ive interpreted the word thuban which translates into like a pack of wolves, as strong willed horde,
as Ali bested their best in single combat and scattered their wolf like pack with his famous ferocious
charges.

So, Hatred Still Filled Their Hearts (After Their Alleged Penitent Capitulation).
Still Smarting From Badr, Khaybar, Hunayn,31 (Each Lost Deadly Altercation),
They Hated Islams Best Champion (While Claiming Fealty To The Nation).
So While (Harboring Hatred And Envy, But Practicing Deceitful Dissimulation),
They Joined Him, Then Turned On Him, For They Resented His Domination.
Ultimately He Had To Fight And Kill The Worse Of That Despicable Congregation,
Traitors Who Turned Their Backs To The Truth, Their Pledge, And The Islamic
Nation.
Then The Opportunists Who Joined Him Against This Insubordination
Broke His Heart With A Mutinous, Insolent, Dim Witted, Confrontation.
And They Killed Him (In Prostration A Despicable, Cowardly Assassination),
Done Ultimately By The Most Wicked Wretched Person Of That Generation,
Who Followed The Most Wicked Wretched Line Of His Forefathers Generation...
(An Execution Without Any Islamic Justification
Performed On The Legendary Most Saintly Hero Of The New Islamic Nation).
Oh Allah Bless Muhammads Soul, And Rain Down Peace On His Household.
(Just As Gods Messenger, Repeatedly Foretold, The Holy Household)
Birthed Guide After Guide, (Rightful Heirs To Prophets God Ordained Role).32
Their National Contemporaries, However, Hated (Their Masumeen33 Mold),
And Cut Relations With Prophets House (While His Most Deadly Foes Rose),
Opportunistically Detaching Themselves From His Familys Vicious Cruel Woes.
(These Enemies Wrongly Deceived The Folks Spiritual Sight)
Except Those Loyal To The Households God Ordained Right
Who Stood With The House Against The Wrong Doers Might.
And Some Joined Them In Waging An Archangel-like Fight.
Some Were (Arrested, Tortured And) Murdered Outright.
Some Were Captured, (And Enslaved... A Worst Than Death Plight ),
And Some Were Exiled (To Keep The Path Their Faith Paved From Their Fooled
Peoples Sight).

31

Badr, Khaybar, And Hunayn Are Battle Sites Where Alis Prowess Saved Was Conspicuously Angelic
Against The Forces Of Truth Hatred, And Statue Worship.
32

There will be no more prophets after Muhammad (S). Their role was to guide, propagate, and explain
via the God Ordained Divine Guidance that was endowed exclusively and specifically to The Premiers of
Prophet Muhammads Household (S).
33

See note 19

10

This Was Their Fate... Allahs Inescapable Decree.

So That Gods Best Reward Would Be Theirs Everlastingly.
Behold! The Earth Is Allahs. Whoever Wills May Inherit It.
But In The End The God Conscious Are The Ones Who Will Merit It.
And Glorious Is Our Lord! (Who Knows All That Is Willed).
Certainly Our Lords Promises Are Always Fulfilled.
He Breaks Not His Promise, Hes Almighty, The Wise.
So The Apex Of What Human Beings Can Humanly Realize
Dawned On Muhammad And The Chaste Of His Error Free Household.
Oh Allah Bless Muhammads Soul And Rain Down Peace On His Household.
So Weepers Should Cry, And Lamenters Should Wail,
And For Their Like Tears Should Flow Freely Without Fail.
And The Protestors Should Raise A Clamorous Noise
And Mourners Should Mourn Without Pretense Of Poise.
Crying Out...

Unlike The Leftist and Rightist Secular Politicos, I assert that Islamic Revolution is synonymous with a
continual, humble, movement which exhorts The Faithful, The People of The Book, and Mankind in
general to Humble, Glorious God Consciousness, and sincere acts of contrite repentance, predicated by
sincere acts of Faith in Allah, His Final Messenger, and The Walayah Of Ali Ibni Abi Talib.

Oh Son Of Those Who Kept Islams Spiritual Landscape Opulently Green
(While The Usurpers Built Gardens And Palaces To Their Materialist Deyn,
Ruining The Spiritual Scene With Arrogance Progressively, False And Obscene,
Artificially Opulent But Far From Pristine).41
38

It is not possible to seek physical vengeance against the murderers of Imam Husayn and his people
physically. One can fight against the die hards who fight against those who believe and propagate his
right. And one can propagate his right to those who do not know it, and remind those who do. And the
best reminder is leading a Husayn-like life.
39

AlMuththabeen = The Instructors Or Teachers (Shedders Of Light, Illuminators)

40

Taeb = a Jurisprudential unobjectionable act. They were taeb personified.

41

Islam spread globally, and became known for palaces, palatial houses of worship, schools, scientific
discovery, and religious tolerance. Religious tolerance aside, the worldly accomplishments did not inspire
a faith that could withstand both the metaphysical and the physical satanic invasions. What if all those
resources went into more smaller neighborhood masjids, sponsoring continuing adult education,
sponsoring local artists, organizing Fruit-of-Islam-Revolutionary-Guard-type youth cadres trained to keep
the peace, help the needy, and motivate the youth towards spiritual, intellectual, social, economic,
political, and marshal savvy and excellence? Building nepotistic bureaucratic boondoggles and gigantic
mosques that were usually empty for morning prayers just couldnt cut it.

Allah Is The Heavens And The Earths Light. An analogy of His Light (is) like a niche where-in is a
lamp. The lamp is in a glass bottle. The glass bottle is like a star, sparkling, kindling from a blessed tree
(Shajarateen Mubarakah), an olive (tree) not eastern and not western. Its oil is almost gleaming
although a fire has not touched it. LIGHT ON LIGHT (NUROON ALA NUR). Allah is guiding to His Light
whoever is willing (to be guided to it). And Allah imparts words of wisdom (by making plain the morals of
his metaphors) to the people. And Allah Knows Everything. From The Holy Quran (24:35) Entitled
AnNur; The Light
43

The pedigree of Gods Final Messengers Holy Household (S) is symbolized in Quran as a Blessed
Tree... that tree being the tree of Prophethood from the line of Abraham (Ebraheem) and his first born son
Ishmael (Ismaeel). That tree is traditionally said to be an Olive tree. While the tree of Jacob (Yakoob)
through Abraham is said to be a Fig.
44

Allah Permits (His Lamp-like Illuminating Wisdom to reside) in HOUSES THAT ARE DEDICATED (to His
Cause) and His Name is remembered there in; (by) chanting glory to Him in (these houses) IN THE
EARLY MORNING (GUDOOWAH) AND LATE AFTERNOON (ASAAL). From The Holy Quran (24:36)
Entitled AnNur; The Light
45

Men (Rijaloon) Whore Not Possessed By Earning (Tijaarah) Or Politics (Bayah) (Prioritizing Such
Before) Allahs Thikr, And They Establish The Salat And Pay The Zakat (The Religious Poor Tax as well
As Generously Performing Acts Of Charity), Fearing A Day (When Hearts And Sight Will Be Changed By
That Day. Theyre rewarded from Allahs Fadl (Graciousness) Because of what they do good. And Gods
rewards are (forever) increasing. From The Holy Quran Chapter (24:37 & 38) Entitled AnNur; The
Light Also see Mahdi Pooya And Ahmed Alis Tafsir of Surah 24:35-38 http://quran.al-islam.org
46

perspicuous = communication expressed in such a way that its easy to understand.

47

assiduous = being very careful, and persistently attentive (to detail or the standard)
