آيات AYAT.ONE
Surah Al-A'raf 7:82
وَمَا كَانَ جَوَابَ قَوۡمِهٖۤ اِلَّاۤ اَنۡ قَالُـوۡۤا اَخۡرِجُوۡهُمۡ مِّنۡ قَرۡيَتِكُمۡ​ ۚ اِنَّهُمۡ اُنَاسٌ يَّتَطَهَّرُوۡنَ‏ ۝
Wama kana jawabaqawmihi illa an qaloo akhrijoohum min qaryatikuminnahum onasun yatatahharoon
But the answer of his people was only that they said, "Evict them from your city! Indeed, they are men who keep themselves pure."

Tadabbur (Reflection)

Theme of the Ayat
