Qur'an 20090116

In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

77. Have you not turned your vision to those who were told to hold back their hands, but establish regular prayers, and spend in regular charity? When the order for fighting was issued to them, behold! A section of them feared men as- or even more than- they should have feared Allah. They said, "Our Lord! Why have You ordered us to fight? Would You not grant us respite to our term nearby?" Say, "Short is the enjoyment of this world. The Hereafter is the best for those who do right. Never will you be dealt with unjustly in the very least!"

78. Wherever you are, death will find you out, even if you are in towers built up strong and high! If some good befalls them, they say, "This is from Allah," but if evil, they say, "This is from you." Say, "All things are from Allah." But what has come to these people, that they fail to understand a single fact?

The Women 4:77-78

All things are from Allah.
