Al-Falaq
Al-Falaq or The Daybreak (, ''al-falaq'') is the 113th and penultimate chapter (''sūrah'') of the Qur'an. Alongside the 114th surah ( Al-Nas), it helps form the Al-Mu'awwidhatayn. Al-Falaq is a brief five ayat (verse) surah, asking God for protection from evil: : ۝ Say, "I seek refuge in the Lord of daybreak,Sahih International translation :۝ From the evil of His creation :۝ And from the evil of darkness when it settles :۝ And from the evil of the blowers in knots :۝ And from the evil of an envier when he envies." Context This surah and the 114th (and last) surah in the Qur'an, an-Nās, are collectively referred to as '' al-Mu'awwidhatayn'', "the Refuges", as both begin with "I seek refuge"; an-Nās tells to seek Allah for refuge from the evil from within, while al-Falaq tells to seek Allah for refuge from the evil from outside, so reading both of them would protect a person from his own mischief and the mischief of others. Regarding the timing and contextual backgro ...

Death Of Baby Falak
Death is the end of life; the irreversible cessation of all biological functions that sustain a living organism. Death eventually and inevitably occurs in all organisms. The remains of a former organism normally begin to decompose shortly after death. Some organisms, such as ''Turritopsis dohrnii'', are biologically immortal; however, they can still die from means other than aging. Death is generally applied to whole organisms; the equivalent for individual components of an organism, such as cells or tissues, is necrosis. Something that is not considered an organism, such as a virus, can be physically destroyed but is not said ''to die'', as a virus is not considered alive in the first place. As of the early 21st century, 56 million people die per year. The most common reason is aging, followed by cardiovascular disease, which is a disease that affects the heart or blood vessels. As of 2022, an estimated total of almost 110 billion humans have died, or roughly 94% of a ...
