      Glossary of Important Arabic Words and Phrases

      Author's Introduction

      Verily, all praise is for Allaah. We praise Him, we seek His aid and we ask for His forgiveness. We seek refuge in Allaah from the evil of ourselves and our sinful actions. Whosoever Allaah guides, there is none who can misguide him, and whosoever that He misguides, there is none who can guide him.

      I bear witness that none has the right to be worshipped except Allaah alone, without partners, and I bear witness that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger.

      O you who believe! Fear Allaah as He should be feared and do not die except as Muslims.

      [Soorah Aali-'Imraan, 3:102]

      O mankind! Be dutiful to your Rabb who created you from one soul, created from it its mate, and from them both He scattered many men and women. And fear Allaah through whom you demand your mutual rights and do not cut the ties of the womb. Surely, Allaah is an All-Watcher of you.

      [Sooratun-Nisaa', 4:1]

      O you who believe! Fear Allaah and always speak the truth or be straight to the point. He will direct you to do good deeds and He will forgive you your sins. And whosoever obeys Allaah and His Messenger has achieved a great achievement.

      [Sooratul-Ahzaab, 33:70-71]

      The most truthful speech is the speech of Allaah, and the best of guidance is the guidance of Muhammad (sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam). The worst of affairs are newly invented matters, and every newly invented matter is an innovation, and every innovation is misguidance, and every misguidance is in the Fire.
