In this clip, Ustadh Nouman Ali Khan reflects on a profound lesson from Surah Al-Hajj (22:73). Allah presents a striking parable: even the smallest creature, a fly, can humiliate those who believe they have power.
The Quran challenges human arrogance by exposing the weakness of both the seeker and the sought. Whether someone pursues wealth, status or recognition, their pursuit itself reveals their vulnerability. Even idol worshippers, who climb great heights to place offerings before their gods, are ultimately weak because they seek from something powerless.
Ustadh Nouman expands on how this lesson applies beyond idol worship to all human pursuits. True power belongs to Allah alone. Understanding the temporary nature of worldly desires allows us to refocus on what truly matters. This reflection calls us to examine what we seek and why.
