understanding this verse
« on: January 12, 2017, 02:57:42 AM »
Wherever you may be, death will overtake you - even though you be in towers raised high. "Yet, when a good thing happens to them, some [people] say, "This is from God," whereas when evil befalls them, they say, "This is from thee [O fellowman]!” Say: "All is from God." 4:78 Assalam alikum I was just wondering I know the meaning but is allah saying that they are in lofty towers or if you were in lofty towers because I thought the mecca people and madinah people only live in small buildings like mud huts that they didn't have great buildings jazzakkallah

This is a message from allah swt stating even if you were in a lofty tower or on plain ground death will over take you. Also even though the meccans did not have towers. Other nations like the byzantine or persians did. This is message for all mankind not just meccans.
