2. Test from Allah
Surah An-Nahl :112
• And Allah presents an example: a city which was safe and
secure, its provision coming to it in abundance from every
location, but it denied the favors of Allah . So Allah made it
taste the envelopment of hunger and fear for what they
had been doing.
Has the time not come?

3. Cause of Calamities
Surah Al-Anfal :53
• That is because Allah would not change a favor which He
had bestowed upon a people until they change what is
within themselves. And indeed, Allah is Hearing and
Knowing.
Has the time not come?

4. Hadith to Reflect
Ibn Umar reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be
upon him, said, “O emigrants, there are five things with which you will
be tested and I seek refuge in Allah that you will live to see them.
Promiscuity never becomes widespread among people but that they
will be afflicted by plagues and diseases that were unknown to their
forefathers. They do not cheat in weights and measures but that they
will be stricken with famine, calamity, and the oppression of rulers.
They do not withhold charity from their wealth but that rain will be
withheld from the sky, and were it not for the animals there would be
no rain at all. They do not break their covenant with Allah and his
messenger but that Allah will enable their enemies to overpower
them and take what is in their hands. Their leaders must rule
according to the Book of Allah and seek every good from what Allah
has revealed, lest Allah will cause them to fight each other.” Ibn Majah
Has the time not come?

5. Plague to Everyone
Allah's Messenger(SAW) said, "If Allah sends
punishment upon a nation then it befalls upon
the whole population indiscriminately and then
they will be resurrected (and judged) according
to their deeds.
Has the time not come?
Interesting Hadith: Abu Salamah reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “There is
no infection (without the decree of Allah). Do not mix the sick with the healthy.” Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim 4124
Al-Nawawi said, “As for the statement ‘do not mix the sick with the healthy,’ it guides to avoidance of what results in
harm, as per the consistent action of Allah and his decree.”

6. Why Test?
Surah As-Sajdah :21
• And we will surely let them taste the nearer punishment
short of the greater punishment that perhaps they will
repent."
Has the time not come?
Surah Al-Ankabut :2
• Do the people think that they will be left to say, "We
believe" and they will not be tried?

7. Chance to become
Rightly Guided
Surah Al-Baqarah :155-157
• And We will surely test you with something of fear and hunger
and a loss of wealth and lives and fruits, but give good tidings to
the patient,
• Who, when disaster strikes them, say, "Indeed we belong to
Allah, and indeed to Him we will return."
• Those are the ones upon whom are blessings from their Lord and
mercy. And it is those who are the [rightly] guided.
Has the time not come?

8. Chance to become
Righteousness
Surah Rum :41
• Corruption has appeared throughout the land and sea by
[reason of] what the hands of people have earned so He
may let them taste part of [the consequence of] what they
have done that perhaps they will return [to righteousness].
Has the time not come?

9. Where Do you Stand?
Surah Rum 33-36
• And when adversity touches the people, they call upon their Lord, turning in
repentance to Him. Then when He lets them taste mercy from Him, at once a
party of them associate others with their Lord,
• So that they will deny what We have granted them. Then enjoy yourselves, for
you are going to know.
• Or have We sent down to them an authority, and it speaks of what they were
associating with Him?
• And when We let the people taste mercy, they rejoice therein, but if evil afflicts
them for what their hands have put forth, immediately they despair.
Has the time not come?

10. A Story of Highway
Robber
Surah Hadid 16-17
• (Is it not the Time /Has the time not come) for those who have believed that
their hearts should become humbly submissive at the remembrance of Allah and
what has come down of the truth? And let them not be like those who were
given the Scripture before, and a long period passed over them, so their hearts
hardened; and many of them are defiantly disobedient.
• Know that Allah gives life to the earth after its lifelessness. We have made clear to
you the signs; perhaps you will understand.
Has the time not come?

11. IT is the Time
Has not the time come to change ?
Has the time not come?
Surah Luqman: 33
O mankind, fear your Lord and fear a Day when no father will
avail his son, nor will a son avail his father at all. Indeed, the
promise of Allah is truth, so let not the worldly life delude you
and be not deceived about Allah by the Deceiver.

12. Prophet(saw) Dua in
Taif
Has the time not come?
To You, my Lord,
I complain of my weakness,
lack of support and the humiliation I am
made to receive.
Most Compassionate and Merciful!
You are the Lord of the weak,
and you are my Lord.
To whom do You leave me?
To a distant person who receives me
with hostility?
Or to an enemy You have given power
over me?
As long as you are not displeased with
me,
I do not care what I face.
I would, however,
be much happier with Your mercy.
I seek refuge in the light of Your face by which
all darkness is dispelled and both this life and the life to come
are put in their right course against incurring your wrath
or being the subject of your anger.
To You I submit,
until I earn Your pleasure.
Everything is powerless without your support.
