In this episode, Ustadh Nouman Ali Khan explores the profound parable in Surah Al-Hajj [22:73-74], where Allah challenges the false gods worshipped by the Mushrikeen. This parable highlights the utter weakness of idols, emphasizing that they cannot even create a fly, nor can they retrieve anything if a fly takes from them. Ustadh Nouman explains how this imagery not only exposes the helplessness of idol worship but also serves as a lesson on misplaced reliance in today's world.People continue to seek power, validation, and security in wealth, status and influence, yet these pursuits ultimately leave them weak. He contrasts this with the strength found in seeking Allah alone. Through this parable, we learn that true power belongs only to Allah and recognizing this reality can transform how we approach faith, struggle and resilience in our lives.Join the discussion on the Bayyinah TV app, a dedicated space where you can engage, reflect and share your own insights alongside others on the same journey: https://www.bayyinahtv.com
