بَلِ اتَّبَعَ الَّذِیۡنَ ظَلَمُوۡۤا اَهۡوَآءَهُمۡ بِغَیۡرِ عِلۡمٍ ۚ فَمَنۡ یَّهۡدِیۡ مَنۡ اَضَلَّ اللّٰهُ ؕ وَ مَا لَهُمۡ مِّنۡ نّٰصِرِیۡنَ
"বরং যালিমরা জ্ঞান ছাড়াই তাদের খেয়াল খুশীর অনুসরণ করে।
সুতরাং যাকে আল্লাহ পথভ্রষ্ট করেন কে তাকে হিদায়াত করবে?
আর তাদের জন্য কোন সাহায্যকারী নেই।"
[৩০ সূরাঃ আর-রুম | Ar-Rum | سورة الروم - আয়াতঃ ২৯]
So direct your face toward the religion, inclining to truth. [Adhere to] the fitrah of Allah upon which He has created [all] people. No change should there be in the creation of Allah. That is the correct religion, but most of the people do not know
[30 Surah: Ar-Rum | Ar-Rum Surah Al-Rum - Verse: 29]
That is, they are not aware of the fact that they are deprived of knowledge and immersed in corruption. And because of this ignorance and misguidance, they are not able to use their intelligence and follow their own instincts and invalid opinions.
কারণ, আল্লাহর পক্ষ থেকে হিদায়াত তাদেরই ভাগ্যে জোটে যারা হিদায়াত অনুসন্ধানী ও তার আকাঙ্ক্ষী হয়। পক্ষান্তরে যারা তার সত্য অনুসন্ধিৎসা থেকে বঞ্চিত হয়, তাকে ভ্রষ্টতার মাঝে ছেড়ে দেওয়া হয় ।
অর্থাৎ, সেই সকল পথভ্রষ্ট ব্যক্তিদের কোন এমন সাহায্যকারী হবে না, যে তাদেরকে হিদায়াত দেবে অথবা তাদেরকে আযাব থেকে রক্ষা করবে।

- "And when My servants ask you, [O Muhammad (sallallahu hu alaihi wa sallam)], concerning Me - indeed I am near. I respond to the invocation of the supplicant when he calls upon Me." - Qur'an 2:186
This verse emphasizes that Allah is always ready to respond to our prayers and supplications. When we turn to Him with sincerity and humility, He listens and answers our calls for help.

Overall, these quotes remind us of the importance of turning to Allah in times of need and the many benefits that come from seeking His guidance and support. Whether through prayer, remembrance, or patience, we can find comfort and strength in our relationship with Allah.
