recall when you were on the nearer bank and they were on the further bank and the caravan was below you. had you planned for this meeting you would have disagreed on the timing but god was to carry out a predetermined matter so that those who perish would perish by clear evidence and those who survive would survive by clear evidence. god is hearing and knowing.
إذ أنتم بالعدوة الدنيا وهم بالعدوة القصوى والركب أسفل منكم ولو تواعدتم لاختلفتم في الميعاد ولكن ليقضي الله أمرا كان مفعولا ليهلك من هلك عن بينة ويحيى من حي عن بينة وإن الله لسميع عليم
