Which of the Blessings of your Lord can you Deny?
By Sheikh Muhammad Ali Al-Hanooti

The
news we received tells the story of gales and floods that landed in
UK and a part of France. 150,000 houses were out of electricity.
Thousands of cars were flooded and damaged. A lot of people lost
their lives and property. That happens in areas of the most
technological and sophisticated, civilized areas. The Might of
Allah is just giving a signal to man, who becomes boastful with
atheism and secularism. Man, who doesn’t remember Allah at all.
What would have this country or those countries do to protect
themselves against those unexpected calamities that are destined by
the unseen? I read in the Qur’an in Surat Al-Haqqah when the
ancient nations of Thamud and ‘Ad turned their backs on Allah.
Thamud was destroyed by flood. ‘Ad was obliterated by gales.
Oh Allah! Your bounties are uncountable. Your blessings can never
be responded to by all the means of praise and gratification. The
greatest of all is that You helped us to be Muslims and blessed us
with guidance and faith.
