Allah directs it towards those who do not want to listen, do not want to believe, and do not want to follow what the Qur'an says. Imagine, Allah has already given us clear guidance through the Qur'an. Yet, there are peopl...
Every verse in the Quran carries an important message for us. Not a single verse is insignificant, as Allah does not do or say anything in vain. Today, let's look at one verse, Al-Kahf 18:35.

Life is filled with moments when people come to us seeking help—sometimes for advice, guidance, or even just a small favor. Often, we may feel reluctant, tired, or dismissive, thinking the matter is too trivial to deserve our attention.
