These verse reminds me that we all made an effort for something—whether it's our deen, occupation, education, health, or anything—but sometimes here, in this dunya, we didn't get the results we wanted.

And most of us do not express disagreement or do not motivate for patience & gracefulness when someone says, 'It's not obligatory on me (to support so & so)'.

The linguistic precision of the Qur’anic text has inspired generations of grammarians, philologists, and exegetes to examine its structure from multiple perspectives, including orthography, phonology, morphology, and syntax.

Among the many fascinating aspects of Qur’anic orthography is the variation in the spelling of certain proper names. One such example is the na
