Allah warns us, that annually Humanity is tested/challenged via Calamities (regardless of whether they’re Natural or Manmade). This includes: Plagues (Disease-Epidemics/Pandemics), Famines, Wars, Crime-Rates, Mass-Shootings, Terrorist-Attacks, Military-Invasions, Weather-Disasters, Economic-Turmoil, Socio-Political Unrest, etc.
(Noble-Qur’ān: Chpt.9, V.126)
Noticing this, it wasn’t until the Covid-Era that this actually hit me so hard. Literally, this is something revealed by Allah (in the 7th-Century, C.E.), telling us what They’ve always done, but we’re Completely-Heedless. And, there’s absolutely 0-Way that Allah hadn’t revealed this to Peoples prior to the Revelation of The Qur’ān.
This alone is a Hujjah/Proof that al-Islām has always been Pure-Guidance & contains the Solutions to any/all Issues which plague (No Pun Intended) Humanity. It’s simply that, as Muslims, we’re Morally-Obligated to look deeper than Surface-Level as per what Allah has sent via at-Tanzīl/Revelation.
