I start off at the end. Allah says,
which
means, and be conscious of Allah, develop the
correct relationship with Allah.
And if you are true believers, you should
lay your trust in Allah. So what's the
beginning of the verse? Allah says, oh, you
who believe,
remember
the favor of Allah upon you.
When there were a people
who were
who had intended to harm you, and they
actually planned it and had started the execution
of the plan.
You know, they
they wanted to stretch their arm of harm
against you. And Allah says, we blocked that
arm. We stopped it. We
we caused
it to cease
exactly there. So Allah says,
we stop their hands from reaching you with
any harm.
Allah says, think of that favor.
Imagine how what type of
comfort that gives me, what type of hope
that gives me, that Allah has my back.
Allah will look after you
behind your back.
Allah will protect you.
Allah will make sure that those who are
planning your downfall will never succeed.
They won't succeed. In fact,
when someone makes a plan
against you,
or when someone curses you,
the justice of Allah
is such
that he doesn't allow an unjustified
curse
to go through.
I'm going to say that again just now,
but let me continue with the second point,
and that
is Allah
will cause
that plan, the evil plan
to reach those who made the plan, who
deserved it.
So when you plot the downfall of someone,
you're actually plotting your own downfall.
Allah says,
You know, the evil plot
will not,
surround or will not grip and catch, you
know,
it will not grip the neck of
anyone besides
he who who deserved it, who did it
in the first place.
You know, the 1 who is the owner
of it, the 1 who started it. So
don't plan the downfall of others
because you're actually planning your own downfall.
