I would really appreciate it i youcan do me a avour. I consider itmy duty to inorm you about, or atleast pass on, the basic teachingso the religion o Islam. I I dont, Iear that I will be held accountablebeore God on the Day oJudgement, and that you will blame

me beore Him or not passing onthe message to you.

However, Im worried that i I wasto talk to you openly about myaith, it may create some kind oawkwardness between us, and Idont want to do anything that mayharm our neighbourly relationship.

Dear Neighbour, That is why I have sent you this,and I am hoping you will take alittle time to read and think abouta ew select verses translatedrom the Quran, which I believeto be the last revelation romGod to humanity. I you do eelcomortable discussing them in the

uture, do not hesitate to contactme. I not, then at least youve doneme a avour by helping me ull myobligation to you and our Creator.

Yours Sincerely,

Your Neighbour

Bear in mind that the present lie is just a game, adiversion, an attraction, a cause o boasting among you, orivalry in wealth and children. It is like plants that spring upater the rain: their growth at rst delights the sowers, butthen you see them wither away, turn yellow, and becomestubble.... the lie o this world is only an illusory pleasure.
