• the obstinacy of the people of Nuh;
• the arrogance of the people of Aad;
• the rejection of Allah’s signs by the people of Thamud;
• the sodomy of the people of Lut;
• the financial deviance of the people of Shuayb as America is the biggest dealer and promoter of the interest based economy;
• the oppression of Abu Jahl et al;
• the greed, deception, love of the temporal life, and the bogusness of the children of Israel;
• along with the arrogance of the Pharaoh who had the misled notion that just because he is the leader of the most powerful nation on earth and is at the top the greatest army of his time he can somehow defeat the servants of Allah.
