People Remember Allāh in Distress

  1. Aya 43 47 63. Who else you call in distress

Risala – Messengers and Message (Quran)

  1. Aya 91 Allāh links risala with tauheed. They did not value Allāh when they said Allāh did not send any human being with books. One can not deny prophets and their message.

Beauty and Power of Worshipping Allah

  1. Aya 14 Should I take other than Allāh a protector while he created everything and feeds us but is not fed.
