Surah Ghafir....ayat 21 to ayat 23

friends, dato and tansri,

go  and travel
see the world
see pharaoh, ad, thamud, saddam hussien and trump
....and come back stronger in faith and purpose.

Have they not travelled in the land to see the nature of the consequence for those who disbelieved before them? They were mightier than these in power and (in the) traces (which they left behind them) in the earth. Yet Allah seized them for their sins, and they had no protector from Allah. (21) That was because their messengers kept bringing them clear proofs (of Allah's Sovereignty) but they disbelieved; so Allah seized them. Lo! He is Strong, severe in punishment. (22) And verily We sent Moses with Our revelations and a clear warrant (23)
