Ayahs 49 – 59

Remember My favor We saved you from the people of Pharaoh And when we parted the sea for you And drowned the people of Pharaoh And when we made and appointment with Mosa (as) for 40 nights Then we pardoned you And when we gave Moses the book Then we revived you after your death And we shaded you with clouds And we sent down upon you manna and quails And when We said, "Enter this city and eat from it wherever you will in abundance We will forgive your sins for you, and We will increase the good doers

And [recall] when We saved your forefathers from the people of Pharaoh, who afflicted you with the worst torment, slaughtering your [newborn] sons and keeping your females alive. And in that was a great trial from your Lord.

The Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said: “No tiredness, exhaustion, worry, grief, distress or harm befalls a believer in this world, not even a thorn that pricks him, but Allah expiates some of his sins thereby.” (Reported by al-Bukhari and Muslim) Expiation of Sins  Higher Rank

Similarly, the trial upon the Muslim Ummah today is from Allah Why? So that those who are sleeping can wake up, understand their reality and do those acts for which they were sent upon this earth.

And [recall] when Moses said to his people, "O my people, indeed you have wronged yourselves by your taking of the calf [for worship]. So repent to your Creator and kill yourselves.

And [recall] when you said, "O Moses, we will never believe you until we see Allah outright"; so the thunderbolt took you while you were looking on. Then We revived you after your death that perhaps you would be grateful.

And We shaded you with clouds and sent down to you manna and quails, [saying], "Eat from the good things with which We have provided you." And they wronged Us not - but they were [only] wronging themselves.

And [recall] when We said, "Enter this city and eat from it wherever you will in [ease and] abundance, and enter the gate bowing humbly and say, 'Relieve us of our burdens.' We will [then] forgive your sins for you, and We will increase the doers of good [in goodness and reward]."

Ihsan PerfectionExcellence

When Rasool Allah (s.a.w) was asked about Ihsan, He said “It is to worship Allah as though you are seeing Him, and while you see Him not yet truly He sees you” [Muslim]
