Side 139 - Thou shalt also consider in thine heart, that, as a man chasteneth his son, so the LORD thy God chasteneth thee. Therefore thou shalt keep the commandments of the LORD thy God, to walk in his ways, and to fear him. For the LORD thy God bringeth thee into a good land, a land of brooks of water, of fountains and depths that spring out of valleys and hills...
Side 6 - Oh people ! Now I am Ruler over you, albeit not the best amongst you. If I do well, support me ; if ill, then set me right. Follow the True, wherein is faithfulness ; eschew the False, wherein is treachery. The weaker amongst you shall be as the stronger with me, until that I shall have redressed his wrong ; and the stronger shall be as the weaker, until, if the Lord will, I shall have taken from him that which he hath wrested. Leave not off to fight in the ways of the AH n. Lord ; whosoever leaveth...

And the monks with shaven heads, if they submit, leave them unmolested. Now march forward in the name of the Lord, and may He protect you from sword and pestilence...
Side 122 - The question with him ever was, What did Mahomet command ? or, What AH 13. now would he have done ? From this he never swerved a hair's-breadth. And so it was that he crushed apostasy, and laid secure the foundations of Islam. His reign was short, but, after Mahomet himself, there is no one to whom the Faith is more beholden.
Side 187 - that between Mesopotamia and " countries beyond, the hills shall be a barrier, so that the " Persians shall not be able to get at us, nor we at them. " The plain of Irac sufficeth for our wants. I would rather " the safety of my people than thousands of spoil and
Side 445 - ... and virtue weakened of the family tie; the vigor of the dominant classes is sapped; the body politic becomes weak and languid excepting for intrigue; and the throne itself liable to fall a prey to doubtful or contested successors." "Hardly less injurious," says he, "is the power of divorce, which can be exercised without the assignment of any reason whatever, at the mere word and will of the husband. It not only hangs over each individual household like the sword of Damocles, but affects the...
Side 44 - Thou art returned home," he said to his son, Abdallah, " safe and sound, and Zeid is dead. Wherefore wast not thou slain before him ? I wish not to see thy face.
Side 327 - Othman had retired alone into an inner chamber of the women's apartments ; and there awaiting his fate, read from the Coran spread open on his knees.
