الحديث 1

rolongation) of their lives, and Granted them the land, so that due to these Blessings they would Remember the Signs of Allah (azwj), and they would recognise and be awed by Him (azwj), and turn to Him (azwj), and bring an end to their arrogance. So before they reached their (allocated) time, and enjoy their meal, Allah (azwj) Mighty and Majestic Grabbed them and cut them down. Some of them from sandstorm, some were overtaken by a scream, and some from being burned by the shadow, and some from the tremors, and some from sinking of the earth. Allah (azwj) was not Unjust to them, but they had been unjust to their own selves. Indeed! For every term there is a writing. So when the writing reaches its term, and it is uncovered for you about what would befall the unjust ones, and what the greatest losers have got to, you will run towards Allah (azwj) Mighty and Majestic from what they had been involved in and to what they are proceeding to. Nay! And I (asws) am among you, O you people, like Haroun (as) was in the people of the Pharaoh (la), and like the Door of Hitta in the Children of Israel, and like the Ark of Noah (as) in the people of Noah (as). I (asws) am the Great News (Al-Nabaa Al-Azeem), and the Great Truthful (Al-Siddique Al-Akbar), And after a little while you will come to know what had been Promised to you. And is this anything else but (was committed) for a morsel of food, and a sip of drink, light sleep. Then the disgrace will be necessitated upon them in the world, and on the Day of Judgement they will be returning to intense Punishment. And Allah (azwj) is not Oblivious (forgetful) of what they have done. So what is the Recompense for the one who turned away from His (azwj) Proof (asws), and denied His (azwj) Argument, and opposed His (azwj) Guides (asws), and turned away from His (azwj) Light and stormed (his way) into the darkness, and exchanged water for the mirage, and Bounties for the Punishment, and the success for the misery, and prosperity for the poverty, and the ease for the hardship. Nay! This is the Recompense of what they had sown and done before. So be certain of the Promise and of its reality, and be assured of what has been Promised on the Day of the coming of the ‘Scream’ (Dooms Day), with the Truth. “[50: 42] The day when they shall hear the cry in truth; that is the day of coming forth. [50: 43] Surely We give life and cause to die, and to Us is the eventuAl-coming [50: 44] The day on which the earth shall cleave asunder under them, they will make haste; that is a gathering together easy to Us”.
