The Exception
إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَعَمِلُواْ ٱلصَّـٰلِحَٰتِ وَذَكَرُواْ ٱللَّهَ كَثِيرࣰا وَٱنتَصَرُواْ مِنۢ بَعۡدِ مَا ظُلِمُواْۗ وَسَيَعۡلَمُ ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوٓاْ أَيَّ مُنقَلَبࣲ يَنقَلِبُونَ ٢٢٧
Save those who believe and do good works, and remember Allah much, and vindicate themselves after they have been wronged. Those who do wrong will come to know by what a (great) reverse they will be overturned.
Translation: Marmaduke Pickthall
Meaning
Except those who believe, do righteous deeds, remember Allah often and defend themselves after being wronged.
Insight
According to Elmalılı, most of their poetry is remembrance of Allah through His oneness and praise, and reflection on His power in His works.
Reflect
Use your pen and words to remember Allah.
