Weekly Verse

Almighty Allah reminds us in the Qur’an:

قُلْ هَلْ يَسْتَوِي الَّذِينَ يَعْلَمُونَ وَالَّذِينَ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ ۗ إِنَّمَا يَتَذَكَّرُ أُولُو الْأَلْبَابِ
 “Say, “Are those who know equal to those who do not know?” Only they will remember [who are] people of understanding. (Az Zumar 39:9)
