He used to listen to the words of the people and say, "O people, do not say such things. They are disobedient to Allah. You must have heard the situation of the disobedient peoples of Allah, and how the punishment of Allah came upon them The past times of the righteous people of Lot are not far from us. We all know that they have been remembered in some way. Answer these things. Did not these people reject the truth? If you reject the soldiers, you will be punished like the previous nations. If you want Allah's mercy on you, then turn to the Lord of the people, the forgiveness of your sins Ask, indeed, my Lord is Most Merciful and Loving.

The straight path is that when you weigh, fulfill it, don't lose weight, and don't cause mischief on earth while it has been reformed, it is good for you if you are truly a believer, and be secretive in every path of life. Do not sit back, do not frighten those who believe in God, and do not hinder those who follow the path of God.

Hazrat Shoaib (peace be upon him) replied, "Will we be forced to do so? We are on the side of Allah. Our Lord's knowledge dominates everything."
