Reality of Life
Reality of Life
While the people of Samud (as) were living their life. All good, smooth and fun — a person among them called them to Allah. Saleh (as) was good mannered, humble and honest among them. They had put high hopes on Saleh. He would go high in ranks, bring good name to his people and become a source of wealths.
Saleh (as) was good until he lived under the tribe's wings. Until he did not challenge the values and ethics of his father and forefathers. Until — he did not call them to Allah (swt).
But soon, they all turned against him. For, he called them to the path of success and freedom. Soon, they rejected his message. Soon, they asked him to be practical and logical. Soon, they gathered to mute him.
Like all people rejecting the beautiful reality of this world, these people were taken in their sleep — like they never existed.
Surah Hud, 61 - 68
