Words of the day

33. O mankind! Keep your duty to your Lord and fear a Day when the parent will not be able to avail the child in anything, nor the child to avail the parent. Allah's promise is the very truth. Let not the life of the world deceive you, nor let the deceiver deceive you, in regard to Allah

34. Allah! With Him is knowledge of the Hour. He sends down the rain, and knows that which is in the wombs. No soul knows what it will earn tomorrow, and no soul knows in what land it will die. Allah is Knower, Aware.

Surah 31: Luqman
