*THE STORY OF QĀRUN AND HOW HIS WEALTH DESTROYED HIM.*
Alhamdulillah, one of the stories of Qur'an in surah qasas was the story of qaarun whom Allah has granted him wealth among the children of Israel.
But he began to boast of his wealth seeing no one has power over it
When people comes to him, he will drink them away and they will say be good as Allah has been to you.
His reply was that it was his knowledge that gave him the wealth not Allah.
He was arrogant but his end was something else.
Once Allah s.w.t did all these blessings for him, he revolt against musa a.s who prayed for Allah to destroy him by drowning him.
As qaarun was drowning, he was calling for help from the people but no one helped him.
When the people see that,
Their words was that musa a.s wanted the wealth of qaarun.
So he musa a.s said o Allah! Let him wealth follow him together.
So his wealth were all drowning too until the power saw that help comes only from Allah.
Allah says,
Al-Qasas 28:81
And We caused the earth to swallow him and his home. And there was for him no company to aid him other than Allah, nor was he of those who [could] defend themselves.
Al-Qasas 28:82
And those who had wished for his position the previous day began to say, "Oh, how Allah extends provision to whom He wills of His servants and restricts it! If not that Allah had conferred favor on us, He would have caused it to swallow us. Oh, how the disbelievers do not succeed!"
May Allah always be our everything. Ameen
