We wonder sometimes how all these visibly corrupt and horrible people are surrounded with so much wealth, joy, and comfort. In this passage about some of the worst and most corrupt leaders of all time, the Quran points to all these wonderful things Firawn has -- power, influence, wealth, and now even a baby boy. Children are objectively blessings to those around them. Even the family of Firawn were sober enough to recognize the joy a child would ...See more
