    Allah tells us that after the people of Nuh Alaihissalaam, He created another nation. It was said that this was `Ad, because they were the successors of the people of Nuh Alaihissalaam or it was said that they were Thamud.

    Allah sent to them a Messenger from among themselves, and he called them to worship Allah Alone with no partner or associate, but they belied him, opposed him and refused to follow him because he was a human being like them, and they refused to follow a human Messenger. They did not believe in the meeting with Allah on the Day of Resurrection and they denied the idea of physical resurrection.

    They said:

    (Does he promise you that when you have died and have become dust and bones, you shall come out alive (resurrected) Far, very far is that which you are promised!) meaning, very unlikely.

    (He is only a man who has invented a lie against Allah,and we are not going to believe in him.

    He said: “O my Lord! Help me because they deny me.” meaning, the Messenger prayed against his people and asked his Lord to help him against them. His Lord answered his prayer:

    (Allah) said: “In a little while, they are sure to be regretful.”) meaning, `for their opposition towards you and their stubborn rejection of the Message you brought to them.’

    (So, The Sayhah overtook them in truth,) meaning, they deserved that from Allah because of their disbelief and wrongdoing. The apparent meaning is that the Sayhah was combined with the furious cold wind,

    (Destroying everything by the command of its Lord! So they became such that nothing could be seen except their dwellings!) ﴿46:25﴾

    (and We made them as rubbish of dead plants.) means, they are dead and destroyed, like the scum and rubbish left by a flood, i.e., something insignificant and useless that is of no benefit to anyone.

    (So, away with the people who are wrongdoers.)

    Listen to the recitation of this dua

    Allah says in the Holy Quran:-

    (190. Verily, in the creation of the heavens and the Earth, and in the alternation of night and day, there are indeed signs for men of understanding.) (191. Those who remember Allah standing, sitting, and lying down on their sides, and think deeply about the creation of the heavens and the earth, (saying): “Our Lord! You have not created this without purpose for You never break (Your) Promise.”) (190-194)

    Here Allah mntions the proofs of Tawhid for people of understanding, their characteristics, speech, and supplications.

    Allah said,

    (Verily, in the creation of the heavens and the Earth,) ﴿3:190﴾, referring to the sky in its height and spaciousness, the earth in its expanse and density, the tremendous features they have of rotating planets, seas, mountains, deserts, trees, plants, fruits, animals, metals and various beneficial colors, scents, tastes and elements.

    (And in the alternation of night and day), as one follows and takes from the length of the other. For instance, at times one of them becomes longer than the other, shorter than the other at times and equal to the other at other times, and the same is repeated again and again, and all this occurs by the decision of the Almighty, Most Wise.

    This is why Allah said,

    (there are indeed signs for men of understanding), referring to the intelligent and sound minds that contemplate about the true reality of things, unlike the deaf and mute who do not have sound comprehension.

    Allah then describes and praises His believing servants,

    (Those who remember Allah standing, sitting, and lying down on their sides, and think deeply about the creation of the heavens and the earth), supplicating;

    (“Our Lord! You have not created this without purpose,”)

    You did not create all this in jest and play. Rather, You created it in truth, so that You recompense those who do evil in kind, and reward those who do righteous deeds with what is better.

    The faithful believers praise Allah and deny that He does anything in jest and without purpose, saying,

    (“glory to You,”), for You would never create anything without purpose,

    (“Give us salvation from the torment of the Fire.”), meaning, “O You Who created the creation in truth and justice, Who is far from any shortcomings, or doing things without purpose or with jest, save us from the torment of the Fire with Your power and strength. Direct us to perform the deeds that make You pleased with us. Guide us to righteous work from which You admit us into the delightful Paradise, and save us from Your painful torment.”

  • Dua to stay protected from the punishment of Grave,Dajjaal, sins,debts and hard times (Dua after the final Tashahhud and before ending the prayer)

    dua38
    ”O Allah, I seek refuge in You from the PUNISHMENT of the GRAVE, and I seek refuge in You from the trial of the False Messiah, and I seek refuge in You from the trials of life and death. O Allah, I seek refuge in You from SIN and from DEBT.”

    اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ عَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ، وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ فِتْنَةِ الْمَسِيحِ الدَّجَّالِ، وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ فِتْنَةِ الْمَحْيَا وَالْمَمَاتِ. اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ الْمَأْثَمِ وَالْمَغْرَمِ

    Allaahumma ‘innee ‘a’oothu bika min ‘athaabil-qabri, wa ‘a’oothu bika min fitnatil-maseehid-dajjaali, wa ‘a’oothu bika min fitnatil-mahyaa walmamaati. Allaahumma ‘innee ‘a’oothu bika minal-ma’thami walmaghrami.

    Al-Bukhari 1/202, Muslim 1/412.
