The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from The Koran: journey was a month, and its evening journey was a month; and we
made to flow for him a fountain of molten brass; and of the ginns some
to work before him by the permission of his Lord; and whoso swerves
amongst them from our bidding we will give him to taste the torment
and the blaze; and they made for him what he pleased of chambers,
and images, and dishes like troughs, and firm pots;- work, O ye family
of David! thankfully;- few is it of my servants who are thankful.
And when we decreed for him death, naught guided them to his death
save a reptile of the earth that ate his staff; and when he fell
down it was made manifest to the ginns that, had they but known the
unseen, they need not have tarried in the shameful torment.
