Page 33 - Obey Allah عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ and Avoid the Forbidden

On page 33, Allah reminds the Children of Israel of the numerous clear signs and revelations they were given. Changing Allah's favour, such as renouncing Islam for disbelief, brings severe punishment from Allah. The life of this world may appear attractive to disbelievers, and they mock those who believe. However, those who obey Allah and avoid forbidden actions will be elevated above the disbelievers on the Day of Resurrection, as Allah bestows His blessings without limit.

All of mankind was once a single community, and Allah sent prophets with guidance and warnings, along with scriptures, to judge disputes. Despite receiving clear proofs, people with scriptures differed due to mutual hatred. Allah, by His leave, guided the believers to the truth. Those who think they will enter paradise without facing trials are reminded of the struggles faced by previous communities, including poverty and ailments. The believers, even the Messenger and his followers, wondered when the help of Allah would come. The answer is reassurance that Allah's help is near.

When believers inquire about what to spend, they are instructed to spend on parents, relatives, orphans, the poor, and travelers. Whatever good deeds they do, Allah is fully aware of them.
