The knowledge is the knowledge

December 31, 2017 by Siblings Of Ilm No Comments

Excerpt From Book, Qur’ān

Master of the Day of Judgement

December 31, 2017 by Siblings Of Ilm No Comments

The Day of Judgement is the day appointed by Allāh to recompense good or evil deeds.

Similarly, the mere fact that a man happens to be ill, poor or weak does not indicate that he is the object of Allāh’s wrath.
