    The path is long but I hope we meet,
    After the grave and the Day, in paradise in bliss upon a reclined seat.

    A traveler traveling - travelled from shirk to tawheed,
    If I'm remembered for anything - let it be the Mercy I seek.

    Your Bro. Abu Hurayra, al-Habeshi

    Should I seek a source of law other than God, when it is He Who has sent down unto you the Book (Qur'an) fully explained? And those whom We have given them the Book know that it has been sent down from the Lord with truth, so be not of those in doubt.

    Learn silence as you have learned speech.
    Speech will guide you, and silence will protect you.

    A lot of scintific terms, especially in chemistry, derive from arabic. Alkali metals comes from arabic for ashes I think, (because alkali metals can be found in ashes).
