Quran 28:76~81

Indeed, Korah (Qaroon)was from the people of Moses, but he behaved arrogantly towards them. We had granted him such treasures that even their keys would burden a group of strong men. ˹Some of˺ his people advised him, “Do not be prideful! Surely Allah does not like the prideful. Rather, seek the ˹reward˺ of the Hereafter by means of what Allah has granted you, without forgetting your share of this world. And be good ˹to others˺ as Allah has been good to you. Do not seek to spread corruption in the land, for Allah certainly does not like the corruptors.” He replied, “I have been granted all this because of some knowledge I have.”
Did he not know that Allah had already destroyed some from the generations before him who were far superior to him in power and greater in accumulating ˹wealth˺? There will be no need for the wicked to be asked about their sins. Then he came out before his people in all his glamour. Those who desired the life of this world wished, “If only we could have something like what Korah has been given. He is truly a man of great fortune!” But those gifted with knowledge said, “Shame on you! Allah’s reward is far better for those who believe and do good. But none will attain this except the steadfast.” Then We caused the earth to swallow him up, along with his home. There was no one to help him against Allah, nor could he even help himself Quran 28:76~81 Surah al_Qasas
Surah al-Qasas [The Story] takes it name from being mentioned in [28:25],
‘Then one of the two women came to him walking with shyness.
She said, “Indeed, my father invites you that he may reward you for having watered for us.”
So when he came to him and related to him the story, he said,
“Fear not. You have escaped from the wrongdoing people.”
This Surah has 88 Ayat.

یہ ایک واقعہ ہے کہ قارون موسیٰؑ کی قوم کا ایک شخص تھا، پھر وہ اپنی قوم کے خلاف سرکش ہو گیا اور ہم نے اس کو اتنے خزانے دے رکھے تھے کہ ان کی کنجیاں طاقت ور آدمیوں کی ایک جماعت مشکل سے اُٹھا سکتی تھی ایک دفعہ جب اس کی قوم کے لوگوں نے اُس سے کہا "پھول نہ جا، اللہ پھولنے والوں کو پسند نہیں کرتا جو مال اللہ نے تجھے دیا ہے اس سے آخرت کا گھر بنانے کی فکر کر اور دُنیا میں سے بھی اپنا حصہ فراموش نہ کر احسان کر جس طرح اللہ نے تیرے ساتھ احسان کیا ہے اور زمین میں فساد برپا کرنے کی کوشش نہ کر، اللہ مفسدوں کو پسند نہیں کرتا" تو اُس نے کہا "یہ سب کچھ تو مجھے اُس علم کی بنا پر دیا گیا ہے جو مجھ کو حاصل ہے“
کیا اس کو علم نہ تھا کہ اللہ اس سے پہلے بہت سے ایسے لوگوں کو ہلاک کر چکا ہے جو اس سے زیادہ قوت اور جمعیت رکھتے تھے؟ مجرموں سے تو ان کے گناہ نہیں پوچھے جاتے ایک روز وہ اپنی قوم کے سامنے اپنے پُورے ٹھاٹھ میں نکلا جو لوگ حیات دنیا کے طالب تھے وہ اسے دیکھ کر کہنے لگے "کاش ہمیں بھی وہی کچھ ملتا جو قارون کو دیا گیا ہے، یہ تو بڑا نصیبے والا ہے" مگر جو لوگ علم رکھنے والے تھے وہ کہنے لگے "افسوس تمہارے حال پر، اللہ کا ثواب بہتر ہے اُس شخص کے لیے جو ایمان لائے اور نیک عمل کرے، اور یہ دولت نہیں ملتی مگر صبر کرنے والوں کو" آخر کار ہم نے اسے اور اس کے گھر کو زمین میں دَھنسا دیا پھر کوئی اس کے حامیوں کا گروہ نہ تھا جو اللہ کے مقابلہ میں اس کی مدد کو آتا اور نہ وہ خود اپنی مدد آپ کر سکا

Quran 22:11~13

And there are some who worship Allah on the verge ˹of faith˺: if they are blessed with something good, they are content with it; but if they are afflicted with a trial, they relapse ˹into disbelief˺, losing this world and the Hereafter. That is ˹truly˺ the clearest loss. They call besides Allah what can neither harm nor benefit them. That is ˹truly˺ the farthest one can stray. They invoke those whose worship leads to harm, not benefit. What an evil patron and what an evil associate! Quran 22:11~13
Named after the obligation of the pilgrimage to Makkah – The Hajj.
The word ‘Hajj’ is only mentioned once in this Surah, وَأَذِّن فِي النَّاسِ بِالْحَجِّ يَأْتُوكَ رِجَالًا وَعَلَىٰ كُلِّ ضَامِرٍ يَأْتِينَ مِن كُلِّ فَجٍّ عَمِيقٍ “And proclaim to the people the Hajj [pilgrimage]; they will come to you on foot and on every lean camel; they will come from every distant pass -” [22:27]
There are 78 Ayat in this Surah.
