In this connection I should like, in conclusion, to advise those who hope for divisions amongst the peoples' representatives at European and at national level, to slow down the hictoric process of unification of the peoples of the European Community, not to cherish so many illusions.

This stance suggests that Merkel appreciates the essence of the argument that François Heisbourg, the chairman of the council of the International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS), advanced in a recent essay a federal arrangement does not fall apart because of problems at the periphery but because of failure at the heart of the system.

So is one who established his foundation upon the fear of Allah and upon His pleasure better, or the one who laid his foundation upon the brink of a falling precipice, so it fell along with him into the fire of hell?

Why, is he better who founded his building upon the fear of God and His good pleasure, or he who founded his building upon the brink of a crumbling bank that has tumbled with him into the fire of Gehenna?

Is he, then, who hath founded his building upon piety towards Allah and His good will better, or he who hath founded his building on the brink of a crumbling bank, so that it crumbleth with him into the Hell fire!

Is he who founds his structure upon piety and acceptance from God better, or he who founds his structure on the brink of a cliff that is about to tumble, so it tumbles with him into the Fire of Hell?

Is he, then, who has erected his structure on the fear of Allah and His good pleasure better, or he who erects his structure on the brink of a crumbling bank, so that it crumbles down with him into the Hell Fire?

Is he who founded his building upon duty to Allah and His good pleasure better or he who founded his building on the brink of a crumbling, overhanging precipice so that it toppled with him into the fire of hell?

Is he who founds his building on Godwariness and the pursuit of Allah s pleasure better off or he who founds his building on the brink of a collapsing bank which collapses with him into the fire of hell?

Is he who founds his building on the fear of Allah and His pleasure, better or he who founds his building on the brink of a crumbling edge so that it will tumble with him into the Fire of Gehenna?

Then is one who laid the foundation of his building on righteousness with fear from Allah and seeking His approval better or one who laid the foundation of his building on the edge of a bank about to collapse, so it collapsed with him into the fire of Hell?

Which is better, the mosque that is founded for pious purposes and for achieving God's pleasure or that which is based on the brink of a crumbling bank and which may crumble into hell at any moment?

Who is better, he who founds his building on the fear of God and His good pleasure, or he who builds on the brink of a crumbling precipice, so that his house is ready to fall with him into the Fire of Hell?

Which then is best? he that layeth his foundation on piety to Allah and His good pleasure? or he that layeth his foundation on an undermined sand cliff ready to crumble to pieces? and it doth crumble to pieces with him, into the fire of Hell.

Is it then he, who laid the foundation of his building on piety to Allah and His Good Pleasure, better, or he who laid the foundation of his building on an undetermined brink of a precipice ready to crumble down, so that it crumbled to pieces with him into the Fire of Hell. And Allah guides not the people who are the Zalimun (cruel, violent, proud, polytheist and wrong doer).

Is he, therefore, better who lays his foundation on fear of Allah and (His) good pleasure, or he who lays his foundation on the edge of a cracking hollowed bank, so it broke down with him into the fire of hell and Allah does not guide the unjust people.
