Tadabbur (Reflection)

Theme of the Ayat

The Hope of Al-A'raf: Praying for protection from the fate of the wicked.

The Insight

Those on the Heights will pray to God not to place them with the people of the Fire. **Seek proximity to the righteous.** The status of the intermediate soul is based on fear and hope. Always strive to be counted among the believers.
