HUD (HUD)
011.007
YUSUFALI: He it is Who created the heavens and the earth in six Days - and His Throne was over the waters - that He might try you, which of you is best in conduct. But if thou wert to say to them, "Ye shall indeed be raised up after death", the Unbelievers would be sure to say, "This is nothing but obvious sorcery!"
PICKTHAL: And He it is Who created the heavens and the earth in six Days - and His Throne was upon the water - that He might try you, which of you is best in conduct. Yet if thou (O Muhammad) sayest: Lo! ye will be raised again after death! those who disbelieve will surely say: This is naught but mere magic.
SHAKIR: And He it is Who created the heavens and the earth in six periods-- and His dominion (extends) on the water-- that He might manifest to you, which of you is best in action, and if you say, surely you shall be raised up after death, those who disbelieve would certainly say: This is nothing but clear magic.

Life gives everybody their fair share of happiness, trouble, sorrow, joy, a chance to be rich and a choice to be poor. Life rewards action.

You are only as good a person as you show people.
Love unconditionally and you will reap many rewards in life.
Live your day like it is the last on earth and you won't waste time.
Love yourself first so that you can love others.

HERE IS A POEM THAT I HAD WRITTEN ABOUT LIFE. IT IS CALLED
LOOKING AT LIFE IN THE RIGHT PERSPECTIVE.
LOOKING AT LIFE IN THE RIGHT PERSPECTIVE
IS HELPING ALL OF US TO UNDERSTAND THE FACTS
SO THAT WE WILL BEGIN TO REALIZE
JUST HOW MUCH WE HAVE BECOME
TOTALLY SUBJECTIVE.
LOOKING AT LIFE WITHOUT HAVING MANY DOUBTS
ALWAYS HELPS US TO UNDERSTAND EXACTLY
WHAT LIFE IS TRULY ABOUT.
LOOKING AT LIFE THROUGH CLEAR & OPENED EYES
IS ALLOWING US TO UNDERSTAND
THAT LIFE IS ALSO FILLED WITH
TREMENDOUS LOVE & BEAUTY
NOT ONLY HATERED & LIES.
I HOPE THAT THIS TELLS YOU SOMETHING ABOUT LIFE.
GOD BLESS!

Life is short, do what makes yourself happy. Even if others think it's selfish.

Life is short, live it while you can, but don't hurt anyone in the process.
