  10. .. [5:109] In the day when Allah gathereth together the messengers, and saith: What was your response (from mankind) ? they say: We have no knowledge. Lo! Thou, only Thou art the Knower of Things Hidden,

    [5:110]
    When Allah saith: O Jesus, son of Mary! Remember My favour unto thee and unto thy mother; how I strengthened thee with the holy Spirit, so that thou spakest unto mankind in the cradle as in maturity; and how I taught thee the Scripture and Wisdom and the Torah and the Gospel; and how thou didst shape of clay as it were the likeness of a bird by My permission, and didst blow upon it and it was a bird by My permission, and thou didst heal him who was born blind and the leper by My permission; and how thou didst raise the dead by My permission; and how I restrained the Children of Israel from (harming) thee when thou camest unto them with clear proofs, and those of them who disbelieved exclaimed: This is naught else than mere magic;

    [5:111]
    And when I inspired the disciples, (saying): Believe in Me and in My messenger, they said: We believe. Bear witness that we have surrendered (unto Thee) "we are muslims".

    [5:112]
    When the disciples said: O Jesus, son of Mary! Is thy Lord able to send down for us a table spread with food from heaven ? He said: Observe your duty to Allah, if ye are true believers.

    [5:113]
    (They said:) We wish to eat thereof, that we may satisfy our hearts and know that thou hast spoken truth to us, and that thereof we may be witnesses.

    [5:114]
    Jesus, son of Mary, said: O Allah, Lord of us! Send down for us a table spread with food from heaven, that it may be a feast for us, for the first of us and for the last of us, and a sign from Thee. Give us sustenance, for Thou art the Best of Sustainers.

    [5:115]
    Allah said: Lo! I send it down for you. And whoso disbelieveth of you afterward, him surely will I punish with a punishment wherewith I have not punished any of (My) creatures.

    [5:116]
    And when Allah saith: O Jesus, son of Mary! Didst thou say unto mankind: Take me and my mother for two gods beside Allah ? he saith: Be glorified! It was not mine to utter that to which I had no right. If I used to say it, then Thou knewest it. Thou knowest what is in my mind, and I know not what is in Thy Mind. Lo! Thou, only Thou, art the Knower of Things Hidden ?

    [5:117]
    I spake unto them only that which Thou commandedst me, (saying): Worship Allah, my Lord and your Lord. I was a witness of them while I dwelt among them, and when Thou tookest me Thou wast the Watcher over them. Thou art Witness over all things.

    [5:118]
    If Thou punish them, lo! they are Thy slaves, and if Thou forgive them (lo! they are Thy slaves). Lo! Thou, only Thou, art the Mighty, the Wise.

    [5:119]
    Allah saith: This is a day in which their truthfulness profiteth the truthful, for theirs are Gardens underneath which rivers flow, wherein they are secure for ever, Allah taking pleasure in them and they in Him. That is the great triumph.

    [5:120]
    Unto Allah belongeth the Sovereignty of the heavens and the earth and whatsoever is therein, and He is Able to do all things.

  13. I am really liking Forbes. No yelling the same info relentlessly, just showing evidence aka objective clinical findings. It's refreshing, I avoid MSM like the plague.. tossed out my box (TV) 16.6 yrs ago. Can't stand it.. and all those puppets reading the same info/script on every channel. No more liars in my living room now!

  15. You never know how good you have it. Until you watch what others are going through. You never know when you might need help. That help may come from others you don't even like. Please, try to find a reason to get along, and love your neighbor.

  16. Lets see how quickly the Biden/Harris regime give these American citizens taxpayers — relief similar to illegal immigrants. Where are the debit cards loaded with thousands of dollars? Where are the free hotel rooms? Where are the free airplane flights? Just like the Maui fires, American citizens will be treated like dogs by their liberal government.

  19. Every time something happens that someone doesn't like, they always say,"There should be a law against that!". Well, Hurricanes kill people, and I don't like that, so there should be a law against Hurricanes. If you pass a law against something, then it won't happen anymore. In prison, there is a law against inmates killing each other. That's why people in prison don't kill each other.

  22. MOTHER NATURE AT HER WORST……YOU BUILD IN A FLOOD ZONE AND YOU GET FLOODED OUT. I GUESS ALL THE LIBERALS IN ASHEVILLE WILL BLAME THIS TERRIBLE CATASTROPHE ON CLIMATE CHANGE…..IT IS MOTHER NATURE NOT WE THE PEOPLE.

  32. This is proof Harris isn't agile enough for the Presidency. In the face of this catastrophic Hurricane, she just continues to campaigns and beg for money. What are Biden/Harris doing to lead the federal emergency agencies? Trump preposition help acting proactively getting help to hurricane aftermath areas immediately. Most of the population hit by hurricane Helene in Appalachia don't have any access to water, power or cell service. Why aren't you covering the emergency service's needs?

  33. This is so bad there is no cell service in most affected areas. It will take months to get them electricity. They need water and food. What are Biden and Harris doing? Why isn't Biden leading this, and if he's not able, why isn't Harris taking up the slack NOW. We need to hear from them and how they are directing recovery efforts. Trump would be on this like white on rice.

  35. Wow, we have visited Lake Lure and Chimney Rock dozens of times. We have toured Biltmore many times. Over the last 30+ years. I have never ever seen the Swannanoa and French Broad rivers so flooded. Prayers for all those folks. It will a long time t recover from the damage.

  37. Dear Heavenly Father please be with families in the Asheville region. Send Your holy angels to their rescue. Help families to re-unite and send people to rescue them Lord. I pray that you may be with the aftermath and that people may have access to clean water and food. Send more help to the regions affected. Help people to come to you dear Lord, in Jesus name we pray Amen.

  38. This is so sad! I just moved from California to nc… visited Asheville last year for the first time in October ( for my 1 year anniversary) wanted to go there again this year 🥺 I'm so heartbroken seeing this!

  39. Feels like the purposeful flood of Nashville in 2010 that drove out the longtime residents and brought in the refugees from both coasts…… so i guess you guys are gonna get an immanent domain rebuild……… pay attention to your senators and local news anchors investments……. that will tell the story!!!!!!

  40. I live outside of Gatlinburg, TN in the Smoky Mountain.. We were between bands. My area low lands got not so bad flooding. I have people in the

    Asheville area. I am told that Asheville west to the Tennessee border is basically destroyed. Roads not only flooded but washed away. Bridges

    destroyed. An East bound section of I 40 collapsed into the river. Asheville is without electric power and cell service. Slowly being restored with

    temp cell towers and Power Crews from as far north as Canada. All non responder traffic inbound/outbound is restricted. There are towns under

    water. This is a Generational Disaster unknown to the Smokys. No one expected Helene to take a track North West out of South Georgia and drop

    part of the Gulf Of Mexico inland. Not to mention the Wind Bands. People are suffering. Maybe the government could spare 2 or 3 billion from

    propping up Ukraine. Nahhhhh… What Was I Thinking?? The normal US Citizen is the last thing on the US Gov's collective mind!!!!!!!!!
