The Day We Never Imagined By: Sanya Hasan We grew up hearing stories that taught us about life, as a child. We heard about the punishments from Allah, people who were vile. Adhaab Allah gave to those who did not listen to Nuh for 950 years. Because of all the shirk, Allah made a huge flood appear. They made fun, but then drowned. For Allah is powerful, all around. Then came the people of Samood, who harmed the She-Camel. Allah granted their wishes, but they still hurt the mammal. So, Allah sent upon them a huge sound wave. That made them drop down and go in their grave. Did you forget about the people who supported LGBTQ? Allah turned the land upside down on them, and yes, this is true. Centuries later, Allah tested us with a virus so small, but can kill millions. It spread across all the people, from Chinese to Americans to Italians. Does this story sound familiar? Time to wake up and don’t be a failure. Prepare and let us ace this test together. Establishing Allah’s deen is wise and clever.
