11 Preface يُرسِلِ السَّماءَ عَلَيكُم مِدرارًاYusuf Ali“###?He will send rain1 to you in abundance;They had perhaps been suffering from drought or famine. If they had taken the message in the right way, the rain would have been a blessing to them. They took it in the wrong way, and the rain was a curse to them, for it flooded the country and drowned the wicked generation. In the larger Plan, it was a blessing all the same; for it purged the world, and gave it a new start, morally and spiritually.
