And when Allah took
the charter of those
who are given
Al-Kitab / The Book
that you would make it
clear for mankind
and you will not
keep it secret
then they threw it
behind their backs
and purchase with it
a little value so what

Q4.
82.And We have revealed from Al-Quran / The Reading which is healing and mercyfor the believers, and it does not increases the oppressors except in loss.
And when I am sick, He (Allah) heals me.
80.

AT-TAUBA 9 U
But when He gave them from His bounty they became stingy with it and turn away and they are those who avoid.
80.You seek forgiveness for them or you do not seek forgiveness for them. If you seek forgiveness for them seventy times Allah will never forgive them. That is because they rejectedAllah and His messenger.And Allah will not guidethe people who are liberals.
