@ 893 Ingratitude to Allah 16:112-113


16:112 Allah strikes a parable of the village which was safe and peaceful. Its provisions came in abundance from everywhere; but it was thankless for the favors of Allah. Therefore, for what they were doing, Allah let it taste the garment of hunger and fear.
# وَضَرَبَ اللَّهُ مَثَلاً قَرْيَةً كَانَتْ آمِنَةً مُّطْمَئِنَّةً يَأْتِيهَا رِزْقُهَا رَغَداً مِّن كُلِّ مَكَانٍ فَكَفَرَتْ بِأَنْعُمِ اللَّهِ فَأَذَاقَهَا اللَّهُ لِبَاسَ الجُوعِ وَالْخَوْفِ بِمَا كَانُوا يَصْنَعُونَ 112
16:113 A Messenger from their own was sent to them, but they belied him. So while they were harm doers they were seized by the punishment.
# وَلَقَدْ جَاءَهُمْ رَسُولٌ مِّنْهُمْ فَكَذَّبُوهُ فَأَخَذَهُمُ العَذَابُ وَهُمْ ظَالِمُونَ 113
16:114 Eat of the lawful and good things with which Allah has provided you and be thankful for the favors of Allah if it is He you worship.
# فَكُلُوا مِمَّا رَزَقَكُمُ اللَّهُ حَلالاً طَيِّباً وَاشْكُرُوا نِعْمَتَ اللَّهِ إِن كُنتُمْ إِيَّاهُ تَعْبُدُونَ 114
