Therefore, Allah Almighty has maintained the secrecy of belief (ghayb) in this world and hidden His omnipotence and magnificence under the so-called utilization of means that are interrelated and interdependent. Those interrelated and interdependent means make the Earth, Moon, Sun, and stars travel in their orbits preceded by Divine Will, it is the source and origin of every formation in the world. Those who look at the balance, order, harmony, and discipline in universe with minds that are free from prejudices realize that this rule of means, which unwary people call the laws of nature, is actually like an automatic machine that is under Allah’s command; and that the only relevant law is the law of harmony, balance, and attraction in all the universes which Allah Almighty has preordained. ] ] ] The law of harmony, balance, and attraction set up of Allah Almighty is called the course of Allah. No power can change the course of Allah. The Earth we have to live on moves around both its axis and the Sun at a speed which is in accordance with the law of harmony, balance, and attraction maintained by Allah Almighty. 8 ] Angel and Man The Earth moves along its axis at a rate of 1,666 km/h. per day and around the Sun at 365 days, 5 hours, and 48 minutes. The weight of the Earth is 6,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 kg. Allah Almighty makes this unimaginably massive object (i.e. the world) travel around its prearranged orbit as He wishes. Likewise, He makes the Sun, that is 332,000 times heavier than the Earth, revolve around the center of the Milky Way about once every 200-225 million years at a speed of 250 km/sec. The Sun with its orbiting objects travels through the Milky Way. Since the Earth, a planet of the solar system, joins this long journey along with its mountains, seas, atmosphere, and all creatures, our place always changes in space. Where were we yesterday? Where are we today? Where will we be tomorrow? ] ] ] Dear Brothers! If the wealthiest

Bougault CASSELL AND COMPANY, LTD. London, New York, Toronto and Melbourne 1910 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED B52.H1 TO MY WIFE WITHOUT WHOSE UNFAILING HELP THIS BOOK COULD NOT HAVE BEHN WRITTEN pQPQQoq PREFACE This book is an attempt to supply a need I was keenly conscious of during a long visit to North Africa last winter. Falling at once under the fas- cinating spell of the Arab people, whose life and religion excited in me the greatest interest and curiosity, I, with many other visitors to Biskra, sought almost in vain for answers to the many questions which daily presented themselves. And if books fail, what resource is there ? The ordinary tourist, who is making a short visit, finds the Arab himself, when questioned, blank. Indeed, I doubt if there are any people under the sun who can, while preserving a charming courtesy, oppose to the curious such an impenetrable reticence as the Arab is capable of. I have tried to write the book I should have been glad to find already in existence at the beginning of my stay. My only claims to attempt it are the unusual length of my visit; my extreme good fortune in winning a measure of friendly con- fidence, by which I got past— if ever so short a distance—the barrier the Arab sets up ; and the fact that since my return home I have been able to follow up these advantages by a study of such works as throw light on some of the mysterious problems one could not otherwise have solved.
