Perished Nations

Pearl of Wisdom

'On the Day of Resurrection a group of people will rise; they will come to the gate of Paradise and they will knock at the gate of Paradise. Then they will be asked, 'Who are you?' And they will answer, 'We are the poor.' They will then be asked, '[Have you come] before the Reckoning?!' And they will answer, 'You did not give us anything to hold us accountable for!' Allah, Mighty and Exalted will then say, 'They speak the truth. Enter Paradise!'

Imam Ja'far ibn Muhammad al-Sadiq [as]

Ibid. p. 264, no. 19

Perished Nations

Throughout world history, a great many very different civilisations have grown up, ruled for a while, and then faded away when their time came. Despite all their power and wealth, they disappeared off the face of the earth. In this film, we shall be examining past societies that were destroyed because of their rebellion against Allah, such as People of Ad, People of Lut and the end of Pompeii.

In this film you can learn the facts about "The People of Saba" who lived in a strikingly beautiful area with fertile vineyards and gardens and how they were suddenly left under the waters with the Arim Flood. Also you will learn about Pharoah, who refused to listen the Prophet Musa and his brother Harun when they told him of Gods commands and how he was buried under the waters of with his army.
