3. Allah menyatakan bahawa kebanyakan mereka tidak beriman, sekali lagi ditunjukkan kepada kita supaya tidak pukul rata. Yang beriman hanya sedikit sahaja iaitu yang menerima syariat dari Al-Quran. Kebanyakan mereka menyambil syariat dari kitab yang tidak jelas dan telah terpesong. Siapa sahaja yang menolak kebenaran setelah tahu mengenai sesuatu kebenaran sebenarnya berperangai Yahudi. Ayat ini juga memujuk nabi Muhammad agar tidak bersedih dalam berdakwah.

The image depicts a nighttime urban street scene. The street is illuminated by streetlights, casting a warm glow on the asphalt. The road is marked with white dashed lines and arrows, indicating lanes and directions. On the left side, there is a sidewalk with a textured surface, and on the right, a metal railing is visible, possibly indicating a pedestrian crossing or a barrier. In the background, a tall building with illuminated windows stands out against the dark sky, suggesting a city environment. The street is relatively empty, with a few vehicles visible in the distance, their headlights and taillights creating streaks of light. Trees line the street, adding greenery to the urban setting. The overall atmosphere is calm and quiet, typical of a city at night.

in reply to Kristoffer Lislegaard • • •a friend I’m helping with social media expressed an interest in starting a Substack the other week. I don’t wanna impose my ideas on them, but like it just seems like a waste of time to me!
Their ideas and art are so amazing, I want them to be in control of it. But they aren’t as tech-nerdy as me, and I don’t know what else to suggest that would be easy for them to use…

I think it’s the promise of monetisation that lures people in, though.
