اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَبَرَكَاتُهُ
اَعُوْذُبِااللّٰہِ مِنَ الشَّیْطٰنِ الرَّجِيْم
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
*_Today’s Thought for the day is from Surah Al-Hijr Ayat 63 & 64_*
*قَالُوۡا بَلۡ جِئۡنٰكَ بِمَا كَانُوۡا فِيۡهِ يَمۡتَرُوۡنَ.(63)*
*وَاَتَيۡنٰكَ بِالۡحَـقِّ وَاِنَّا لَصٰدِقُوۡنَ.(64)*
*_They said: We have come to you with that [the punishment] concerning which they had doubts.(63)_*
*_We have brought to you that which is inevitably due [the punishment], and indeed we are telling the truth.(64)_*
وہ بولے کہ نہیں بلکہ ہم آپ کے پاس وہ چیز لے کر آئے ہیں جس میں لوگ شک کرتے تھے.(63)
اور ہم آپ کے پاس یقینی بات لے کر آئے ہیں اور ہم سچ کہتے ہیں.(64)
The Angels inform Prophet Lut(AS) their purpose of visit.‼️ Prophet Lut(AS) always warned his people to follow and embrace the religion he had preached and acknowledge his apostleship. He kept warning them that if they continue to persist in disobedience, they will receive the wrath and punishments from Allah Azzawajal. This warning of their Prophet was taken by them for joke and they treated it with mockery. They didn’t believe in the oneness and power of Allah Azzawajal. They even challenged Lut(AS) to immediately bring down the promised punishment.
*_Act of the Day is:_* to understand that Divine punishment is always based on truth and justice.‼️ When a nation rejects their messenger despite knowing the truth of his message, the punishment of Allah Azzawajal (in principal) targets the entire nation. The whole nation was involved in the sin and failed the test. Except for Prophet Lut(AS) there was no one to condemn the wrong and advise them on good.
*_May Allah Subhanahu wa taa’la grant us the ability to remain firm upon Deen and save us from deviations and sins. Aa’meen Ya’Rabbul Aa’lameen._*
