In this episode, Maulana Syed Abul Ala Maududi explores Surah Al-Hijr, a Makkan chapter that reaffirms the divine protection of the Quran and the ultimate fate of those who reject Allah’s guidance. This Surah emphasizes that Allah’s message will remain unchanged and preserved for all time, unlike the scriptures of the past. It also recounts the stories of previous nations, such as the people of Thamud, who faced destruction due to their arrogance and defiance.

This episode covers:

• The divine promise to protect the Quran (Indeed, it is We who sent down the Quran, and indeed, We will be its guardian. – 15:9)

• The fate of past nations that denied their prophets

• The creation of Adam (AS) and Iblis’ arrogance in refusing to bow

• The story of Prophet Lut (AS) and the destruction of his people

• The reassurance to the Prophet (ﷺ) that truth will ultimately prevail

Surah Al-Hijr serves as a reminder that Allah’s guidance is eternal, the Quran is divinely preserved, and those who reject the truth will meet the same fate as past nations that turned away from their prophets.
