Lessons Learnt from the Story of Moses and Pharaoh

From this story, I learnt that Allah’s fate and predestination is unquestionably going to take place. As Pharaoh slaughtered thousands of children lest a promised one should come to life and defeat him as was predicted by his soothsayers.

What Made Her Cry?

Leaving them what may suffice them for three days only, Hatim set out for his journey with neither provisions nor money on him and he followed the caravan by walking behind it.

Burned Bread

Do not exaggerate; do not overact; if you find a stone on your way, pick it up and throw it behind your back and continue your march; this should be a common culture and a learnt personal skill…” To all, please forgive us and overlook our mistakes when we commit some
