Dan demi sesungguhnya, jika Kami hantarkan angin (menyerang tanaman) lalu mereka melihat tanaman itu menjadi kuning kering, nescaya mereka sesudah itu, terus kembali kufur (tidak mengenangkan nikmat-nikmat Allah serta berputus asa).
(Disclaimer : this is just a personal reflection) The lesson I learned from this verse is that we often remain grateful to Allah (SWT) only as long as conditions are in our favor and everything is going the way we want. But as soon as something goes wrong, we become ungrateful. Not only that, but we also forget all those times Allah (SWT) accepted our duas and blessed us with so much.
I pause and look at the world around me. I see the gentle wind swaying the trees, carrying clouds that will soon quench the thirsty earth. Life feels easy, blessings obvious. In these moments, my heart feels light, grateful, almost certain that all is as it should be. But then, I remember the verse: “And if We were to send a wind, and they saw their crops turn yellow, they would fall into disbelief.”
