Discussion:
What is the meaning of “Hadab” …….. from every side (corner) all around
There is so much evil and oppression in the world, How much patience does Allah, swt, have with mankind?
Sister Alia recommends Yasir Qadhi’s series on the Signs of the Day of Judgement. A fascinating series that is so relevant to our modern times.
There is a word that is repeated twice with the difference of one letter. The added letter “taa” puts more emphasis on the word which means “can”. Allah’s swt use of grammar and meaning to give such lovely elegance in the reading of the Quran.

"How perfect You are O Allah, and I praise You.
I bear witness that None has the right to be worshipped except You.
I seek Your forgiveness and turn to You in repentance."
سُبْحـانَكَ اللّهُـمَّ وَبِحَمدِك، أَشْهَـدُ أَنْ لا إِلهَ إِلاّ أَنْتَ أَسْتَغْفِرُكَ وَأَتوبُ إِلَـيْك
Subhânaka l-lâhumma wa bi-hamdika. Ash-hadu an lâ ilâha illâ anta, astaghfiruka wa atûbu ilayka..
If any of this information was good and true, know that it comes from Allah subhanahu wa ta’ala.
If there are mistakes we ask for Allah’s Forgiveness and Mercy.
