قُلۡ لَّاۤ اَمۡلِکُ لِنَفۡسِیۡ ضَرًّا وَّ لَا نَفۡعًا اِلَّا مَا شَآءَ اللّٰہُ ؕ لِکُلِّ اُمَّۃٍ اَجَلٌ ؕ اِذَا جَآءَ اَجَلُہُمۡ فَلَا یَسۡتَاۡخِرُوۡنَ سَاعَۃً وَّ لَا یَسۡتَقۡدِمُوۡنَ ﴿۴۹﴾
49. Say: ‘I do not own for myself (protection from) any harm, nor any benefit, except what Allah intends. There is an appointed term for every community. When their term arrives, they can not delay it by a moment, nor can they advance it.’*
* This verse refers to a specific time given to every community to reform itself. When that time ends, and the community does not accept the truth and reform itself, and instead, it continues in its rebellion and transgression, it is then bound to perish or suffer from the calamities decreed by the Lord.
قل لا أملك لنفسي ضرا ولا نفعا إلا ما شاء الله لكل أمة أجل إذا جاء أجلهم فلا يستأخرون ساعة ولا يستقدمون
