The Inevitable Hour!

What is the Inevitable Hour?

And what will make you realize what the Inevitable Hour is?

˹Both˺ Thamûd and ’Ȃd denied the Striking Disaster.¹

As for Thamûd, they were destroyed by an overwhelming blast.

And as for ’Ȃd, they were destroyed by a furious, bitter wind

which Allah unleashed on them non-stop for seven nights and eight days, so that you would have seen its people lying dead like trunks of uprooted palm trees.

Do you see any of them left alive?
