Ants are the longest living insects!

Unlike some bugs who might only live for days or even hours.

The ant is one of the world’s strongest creatures in relation to its size! A single ant can carry 50 times its own bodyweight, and they’ll even work together to move bigger objects as a group!

Reveale d in Makkah.

“The case of those who took others than Allah as their protectors is that of a spider who builds a house; but the frailest of all houses is the spider’s house; if they only knew.”

Al-Ankabut (29:41)

Allah speaks in the Qur’an about the people who look for protection from people/things other than Allah.

Allah explains to us that looking for protection from others is like how the spider builds its web an d thinks his web will protect him but as we all know, spiders webs are very weak an d can be easily broken by anyone.

Allah is explaining to us that we should ask Him for help an d protection because no one but Allah can help an d protect us.

What does the baby spider want to be when it grows up?

A web designer.

Cattle

Surah Al-An'am (The cattle) •

6th surah (chapter) of The Qur’an.

• 165 ayaat (verses).

• Reveale d in Makkah.

• (Cattle) in the Qur’an means, camels, cows an d sheep.

In this surah, Allah speaks about how the idol worshippers would make up lies an d rulings about eating cattle, drinking the milk an d riding/using certain cattles. They would say it was forbidden to eat certain meat from the cattles an d that females were not allowe d to drink from the milk an d only those whom they chose were allowe d to eat from their meat.

All these rules were made up by people an d not at all what Allah had instructe d from us for Allah is the most fair an d just Lord. Allah tells us many times in the Qur’an to eat from what Allah has given us! ie. Cattle. Allah says he will repay them for the lies that they speak!
