1 God is renowned in Judah;
in Israel his name is great.
2 His tent is in Salem,
his dwelling place in Zion.
3 There he broke the flashing arrows,
the shields and the swords, the weapons of war.

4 You are radiant with light,
more majestic than mountains rich with game.
5 The valiant lie plundered,
they sleep their last sleep;
not one of the warriors
can lift his hands.
6 At your rebuke, God of Jacob,
both horse and chariot lie still.

Then Hisham said, ‘You-asws can leave to go to your-asws family whenever you-asws so desire to’. So, my-asws father-asws went out heading from Syria towards Al-Hijaz, and Hisham sent a postman and wrote to with him to entirety of his governors of what is between Damascus to Yasrib (Al-Medina), ordering them that they should neither allow anything to my-asws father-asws from their cities, nor selling to him-asws in their markets, nor allow him-asws to mingle among the people of Syria until he-asws arrives to Al-Hijaz. When he-asws ended up to the city of Madyan, and with him-asws were his-asws servants, and one of them came to him-asws to inform him-asws that their provisions had depleted, and they had been prevented from the markets, and that the gate of the city had been locked. My-asws father-asws said: ‘They had done it. Bring me-asws wud’u (water). He-asws was brought water. He-asws performed wud’u, then he-asws leant upon a slave of his-asws, then ascended the mountain until when he-asws came to be at the top, he-asws faced the Qiblah. He-asws prayed two Cycles Salat. Then he-asws stood and overlooked upon the city, then called out at the top of his-asws voice, and said: -
And to Madyan (We Sent) their brother Shu’aib. He said: ‘O people! Worship Allah. There is no god for you other than Him, and do not undervalue the measures and the weights. I view you with goodness and I fear upon you the Punishment of an encompassing Day [11:84] And, O people! Fulfil the measures and the weights with fairness, and do not undervalue the people of their things and do not make mischief in the land as corrupters [11:85] The remaining one of Allah is better for you if you were Momineen, [11:86]!
Then he-asws placed his-asws hand upon his-asws chest, then called out at the top of his-asws voice: ‘By Allah-azwj! I-asws am the remaining one of Allah-azwj!’ He (Abu Abdullah) said: ‘And there was an aged old man among the people of Madyan whose age had reached the (limit of) years, and he was literate with the experience, and he had read the Book, and the people of Madyan knew him being with righteousness. When he heard the call, he said to his people, ‘Take me out!’
…
The sheikh said to them, ‘Will you obey me?’ They said, ‘Yes’. He said, ‘The people of Salih-as, rather one man from them was in charge of slaying the she-camel, and they were all Punished for being upon the agreement with his deed. And this man has stood in the place of Shueyb-as and has called out like the call of Shueyb-as. So, reject the sultan and obey me, and go out to him with the market (stalls), and fulfil his-asws need, or else you will not be safe. By Allah-azwj the destruction would be upon you all!

7 It is you alone who are to be feared.
Who can stand before you when you are angry?
8 From heaven you pronounced judgment,
and the land feared and was quiet—
9 when you, God, rose up to judge,
to save all the afflicted of the land.
10 Surely your wrath against mankind brings you praise,
and the survivors of your wrath are restrained.

O Allah, (please) send blessings upon Muhammad the son of `Ali the splitter of knowledge, the leader to true guidance, the chief of the people of piety, and the superbly selected from among Your servants.

O Lord of the worlds!

11 Make vows to the Lord your God and fulfill them;
let all the neighboring lands
bring gifts to the One to be feared.

he is feared by the kings of the earth.

- Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Muhammad Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from ibn ’dhayna(Thiqah) from Yazid (Burayd) al-‘Ijli who has said that he asked Imam abu Ja’far (a.s) about the meaning of the following verse of the Holy Quran. “We have made you (true Muslims) a moderate nation so that you could be (witness) an example for all people and the Prophet (a witness) an example for you. . .” (2:143) The Imam (a.s) said, “We are the moderate nation and we are the witness for Allah, the Most Holy, the Most High, over the activities of His creatures and possess His authority on earth.” I then asked about the meaning of the following verse of the Holy Quran that says, “Believers, worship your Lord, bow down and prostrate yourselves before Him and do virtuous deeds so that perhaps you will have everlasting happiness. (22:77) Strive steadfastly for the Cause of God. He has chosen you . Believers, worship your Lord, bow down and prostrate yourselves before Him and do virtuous deeds so that perhaps you will have everlasting happiness. (22:77) Strive steadfastly for the Cause of God. He has chosen you but has not imposed on you hardship in your religion, the noble religion of your father, Abraham. God named you Muslims before and in this Book, so that the Messenger will witness (your actions) and you will be the witness over mankind. The noble religion also is a reference to us. Allah has called us as Muslims in the heaven books that were revealed before and in this holy book (the Holy Quran) The Holy Prophet (s.a.) has testified in our favor by conveying the message of Allah, the Most Holy, the Most High. We bear witness to the activities and on the Day of Judgment certify the faith of those who have acknowledged our Divine authority and reject those who have rejected our Divine authority.”
