Indeed, the wrongdoers will never succeed.”The Pattern in the Quran: “وَمَنْ أَظْلَمُ” – The Greatest SinsThe Quran repeatedly asks “Who is more unjust than…” when referring to major sins:✔️ Surah Al-Baqarah (2:114) – Stopping people from going to the Masjid and trying to destroy it.✔️ Surah Al-Baqarah (2:140) – Hiding the testimony of Tawheed (Shahadah).✔️ Surah Al-An’am (6:21) – Lying about Allah and denying His signs.💡 Lesson: The greatest injustice is to deny truth knowingly and spread falsehood about Allah.BeQuranic is a reader-supported publication.
