Perished Nations

Pearl of Wisdom

from the Imams (AS), 'Strive earnestly and work hard, and even if you do not manage to perform good deeds, at least do not sin, for verily the building of one who continuously builds without destroying [at the same time] will rise tall, even if it be plain and unadorned, whilst the building of one who builds but also destroys will almost never rise up.'

Bihar al-Anwar

Ibid. v. 70, p. 286, no. 8

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.
