FRIDAY NOTES (15/11/2024) FROM THE QURAN - SURAH 69 (AL HAQQAH)

Non Muslims can skip this. Thank you.

Today here are a set of verses (38 to 52) from Surah Al Haqqah (Surah no. 69).

I found two translations online. 
The second one is by Abdullah Yusuf Ali. 
Dont know who is the translator for the other set. 

Chapter 69 : Incontestable (Al-Haaqqah)  38 - 52.

Here are the same translations, but only 38 to 50. I lost 51 and 52.

٣٨  فَلَا أُقْسِمُ بِمَا تُبْصِرُونَ
38  Indeed, I swear by what you see.

٣٩  وَمَا لَا تُبْصِرُونَ
39  And by what you do not see.

٤٠  إِنَّهُ لَقَوْلُ رَسُولٍ كَرِيمٍ
40  It is the speech of a noble messenger.

٤١  وَمَا هُوَ بِقَوْلِ شَاعِرٍ ۚ قَلِيلًا مَا تُؤْمِنُونَ
41  And it is not the speech of a poet—little do you believe.

٤٢  وَلَا بِقَوْلِ كَاهِنٍ ۚ قَلِيلًا مَا تَذَكَّرُونَ
42  Nor is it the speech of a soothsayer—little do you take heed.

٤٣  تَنْزِيلٌ مِنْ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ
43  It is a revelation from the Lord of the Worlds.

٤٤  وَلَوْ تَقَوَّلَ عَلَيْنَا بَعْضَ الْأَقَاوِيلِ
44  Had he falsely attributed some statements to Us.

٤٥  لَأَخَذْنَا مِنْهُ بِالْيَمِينِ
45  We would have seized him by the right arm.

٤٦  ثُمَّ لَقَطَعْنَا مِنْهُ الْوَتِينَ
46  Then slashed his lifeline.

٤٧  فَمَا مِنْكُمْ مِنْ أَحَدٍ عَنْهُ حَاجِزِينَ
47  And none of you could have restrained Us from him.

٤٨  وَإِنَّهُ لَتَذْكِرَةٌ لِلْمُتَّقِينَ
48  Surely, it is a message for the righteous.

٤٩  وَإِنَّا لَنَعْلَمُ أَنَّ مِنْكُمْ مُكَذِّبِينَ
49  And We know that some of you will reject it.

٥٠  وَإِنَّهُ لَحَسْرَةٌ عَلَى الْكَافِرِينَ
50  And it is surely a source of grief for the unbelievers.

 

Here is the translation of 69:38 - 52 by Abdullah Yusuf Ali:

69:38     So I do call to witness what ye see,
69:39     And what ye see not,
69:40     That this is verily the word of an honoured apostle;
69:41     It is not the word of a poet: little it is ye believe!
69:42     Nor is it the word of a soothsayer: little admonition it is ye receive.
69:43     (This is) a Message sent down from the Lord of the Worlds.
69:44     And if the apostle were to invent any sayings in Our name,
69:45     We should certainly seize him by his right hand,
69:46     And We should certainly then cut off the artery of his heart:
69:47     Nor could any of you withhold him (from Our wrath).
69:48     But verily this is a Message for the God-fearing.
69:49     And We certainly know that there are amongst you those that reject (it).
69:50     But truly (Revelation) is a cause of sorrow for the Unbelievers.
69:51     But verily it is Truth of assured certainty.
69:52     So glorify the name of thy Lord Most High.

 

My Comments : This is perhaps the greatest oath in the Quran.

68:38  Indeed, I swear by what you see. 
68:39  And by what you do not see. 
69:40  It is the speech of a noble messenger

The Messenger is obliged to deliver the message precisely.

69:44     And if the apostle were to invent any sayings in Our name,
69:45     We should certainly seize him by his right hand,
69:46     And We should certainly then cut off the artery of his heart:
69:47     Nor could any of you withhold him (from Our wrath).

HAMAS, HEZBOLLAH, IRAN IN DEEP SHIT

This is Senator Marco Rubio who has just been appointed the new United States Secretary of State (Foreign Minister). This is the most high profile job in the United States government after the President himself.

Marco Antonio Rubio is an American politician and lawyer serving as the senior United States senator from Florida, a seat he has held since 2011. A member of the Republican Party, he served as Speaker of the Florida House of Representatives from 2006 to 2008.

PAKISTAN AND BANGLADESH IN DEEP SHIT. WATCH THIS.

This is a short video. This is Lieutenant Colonel Tulasi Gabbard, 43 years old who has just been appointed as the United State's Director of National Intelligence (DNI) by President Donald Trump. It is a Cabinet level position.

What is the Director of National Intelligence?

Here is the answer : The director of national intelligence (DNI) is a senior cabinet-level United States government official, required by the Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act of 2004 to serve as executive head of the United States Intelligence Community (IC) and to direct and oversee the National Intelligence Program (NIP). All IC agencies report directly to the DNI.

The DNI also serves, upon invitation, as the principal advisor to the president of the United States, the National Security Council, and the Homeland Security Council on all intelligence matters. The DNI, supported by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), produces the President's Daily Brief (PDB), a classified document including intelligence from all IC agencies, handed each morning to the president of the United States.  Now the CIA chief reports to the DNI.

There are only three points to remember.

• 18 US intelligence agencies report to the DNI.
• The CIA will report to the DNI.
• First thing every morning the President will read (or be directly briefed)  by the DNI. Meaning she has direct access to the President EVERY DAY.
  

Lieutenant Colonel Tulasi Gabbard (Army National Guard)  is  a decorated (she was awarded medals) war veteran. She served in the US Army in Iraq and Kuwait. She was also the youngest member of the United States Congress from Hawaii (in her early 20s). She is a surfer and was also a martial arts instructor (Capoeira).

 

                                                 TULASI GABBARD : ABOVE AND BELOW 

Her mother was white and born in Indiana while her father is of Samoan European ancestry. Her mother converted to Hinduism at an early age. So Tulasi and all her siblings were born into Hinduism. As a Congresswoman she took her oath of office  on her personal copy of the Hindu Bhagavad Gita.

She was a lifelong Democrat but got tired of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris and switched her support to Donald Trump (Republican).

We are just beginning to hear about Tulsi Gabbard.

SHOCKER AT ZHUHAI AIR SHOW.

 

Folks more China news. This is a must see video here. The foremost airshow in the world is now the Zhuhai Airshow in southern China. Zhuhai 2024 ended just two days ago. 

The West does not participate in this airshow. But the Russians and the Chinese are out in full force. And because both China and Russia are by far the two most technologically advanced airpowers in the world, they always have a whole range of new products to display which can fill up the Zhuhai airshow.

The Americans take about 20 years to develop a new airplane. The Chinese are showing a new airplane like twice a year.

Here is another three minute video (at the end here). The Chinese displayed a really futuristic 6th generation fighter - the White Emperor B. The B indicates there was an A, but I cant recall it.

 

 

 

Little is known about this new 6th generation fighter. The plane is obviously a stealth fighter - which is now old technology. The aircraft on display appears more advanced than a mock up. They have already made upgrades to the airframe design.

6th generation fighters would be hypersonic or close to hypersonic. Top speed approaching Mach 4 or more. The plane would also have advanced wingman and drone capability. That huge cockpit indicates a two man crew with the co pilot possibly manning weapons and wingman drones. The plane should have hypersonic missiles as well and possibly laser weapons.   

If the plane is hypersonic it means the F15s and the F35 Stealth fighters will be left in the dust.  This is indeed a game changer.  The design phase looks pretty advanced.I hope we will see it in the air soon.

THE PEOPLE OF GAZA SUFFER

 

 

 

QATAR READY TO BETRAY HAMAS. TO SAVE THEIR OWN NECKS.

Recall this news which I uploaded just a few days ago.

 

Qatar wants Hamas to leave. This is happening after Donald Trump won the elections. But now there is a new development. 

President-elect Donald Trump's transition team have written a letter to US Secretary of State Tony Blinkin and US Attorney General Merrick Garland making specific requests that two Hamas leaders living in Qatar namely Khaled Meshal and Khalil al Hayya be arrested and extradited to the United States of America. 

Here is the letter that has been written to the US Secretary of State and the Attorney General:

What is to be noted is this line :  "Qatari officials have said repeatedly that they would change their policy towards Hamas if the Biden-Harris administration asked it to do so" 

In other words all the Americans have to do is tell Qatar to arrest and extradite Khaled Meshal and Khalil al Hayya and the Qataris would obey the instructions.  Putting it another way Qatar can sell out Hamas at any time.

I have said this many times before - this is typical Middle East -  the Arabs can betray, backstab and sell each other out at the drop of a keffiyeh.Anything to guarantee their own survival first.

Of course Qatar's survival depends on the American security umbrella. Qatar is home to the Al Udeid Airbase, the largest American military base in the Middle East.

Al Udeid Air Base houses the Qatar Emiri Air Force, United States Air Force, Royal Air Force, and other foreign forces. It is host to a forward headquarters of United States Central Command, headquarters of the United States Air Forces Central Command, No. 83 Expeditionary Air Group RAF, and the 379th Air Expeditionary Wing of the USAF.

In 1999, the then Emir of Qatar, Sheikh Hamad, told U.S. officials that he would like to see as many as 10,000 U.S. servicemen permanently stationed at Al Udeid. According to media reports in June 2017, the base hosted over 11,000 U.S. forces and over 100 operational aircraft.  It is the largest U.S. military base in the Middle East.

            American protection. The massive Al Udeid Airbase. All paid for by Qatar.

Qatar pays for the airbase as well.  In 2017 then President Donald Trump did "threaten" to vacate the Al Udeid Base and move somewhere else. This was during the crisis between Qatar and Saudi Arabia, Egypt and the UAE.

 Official US statements about the possibility of relocating the American base at Al-Udeid

On July 12, 2017 the Christian Broadcasting Network (CBN) aired an interview with President Donald Trump in which the Qatar crisis was discussed. In response to a question about the future of the Al-Udeid base, he said, on the one hand, “We are going to have a good relationship with Qatar. We are not going to have problems with the military base.” On the other hand, he said, “If we ever needed another military base, you have other countries that would gladly build it. … If we ever have to leave, we would have ten countries willing to build us another one, believe me, and they will pay for it.”

This is what President Trump said in 2017. Now in 2024 Donald Trump is back as president again. That is why the Qataris are suddenly being very cooperative. 

Their own survival is at stake. Hamas can be sacrificed.
