207. Abū
Mūsa رضي الله عنه reported: Messenger of Allāh ﷺ
said, “Verily, Allāh gives respite to the oppressor. But when He seizes him, He
does not let him escape.” The he (ﷺ) recited, “Such is the
Seizure of your Rubb when He seizes the (population of) towns while they are
doing wrong. Verily, His seizure is painful (and) severe.” (11:102)
