To combat this, oxygen bottles and special clothing are needed to survive at such heights, as well as...

You would have supposed them to be awake, whereas in fact they were asleep. We moved them to the right and to the left, and, at the entrance, their dog stretched out its paws.

(Quran chapter 18 verse 18) This passage discusses the importance of movement in sleep, an...

Allah states in the Qur’an that the number of believers unearth would be always very few and that only this minority of believers would attain Paradise.

The sole friend and protector of man is his Creator, Allah. Those who are not God-fearing, however, refuse to accept this fact.

This is the fact of which the Prophet Muhammad (saas) reminded his people. For instance, when someth...
