How to read a book - Muhammed Salih Sheik Al-Munajjid - Bog

All praise is for Allaah, we praise Him, seek His forgiveness, and
seek His refuge from the evils of ourselves and the evils of our
actions. Whoever Allaah guides, then none can misguide them, and
whoever He misguides, then none can guide them. I bear witness
that there is no deity worthy of worship besides Allaah the Exalted,
Alone, without any partners, and that Muhammad is His slave
and Messenger.
As to what follows:
All praise belongs to Allaah the Exalted who created, first of all,
the pen, and Said: 'Write,' causing it to write everything that will
occur until the Day of Resurrection. Likewise, thanks belong to
Him the Exalted who has favored His slaves with the blessing of
the pen and writing, and mentioned it when He Said (what means):
{Nun. By the pen and what they inscribe} [Qur'aan 68:1] So, His
taking an oath shows the greatness of the pen and writing, because
Allaah the Exalted only swears by something great.
