Transliteration:( Falammaa jaaa'a amrunaa najjainaa Saalihanw wal lazeena aamanoo ma'ahoo birahmatim minnaa wa min khizyi Yawmi'iz inna Rabbaka Huwal Qawiyyul 'Azeez )
"Then when Our Command came, We saved Saleh and those who believed with him by Our mercy [140], and from the humiliation of that day. No doubt, your Lord is the All-Mighty, the All-Powerful."
✅ [140] Companionship in Faith
The term "company" in this verse refers to the companionship in faith rather than the physical companionship in time. Hazrat Saleh (peace be upon him) had already embraced faith before his followers, so his faith preceded that of his companions. Allah’s mercy was extended to those who had believed and followed him, highlighting that faith is the key to salvation and divine protection. These pious people were saved before the punishment struck the disbelievers. This shows that Allah’s mercy protects the believers first, and punishment follows only for those who reject the message.
