An-Nisaa (The Women)

133. "If He pleases, He can remove you, O' people! and bring others; and Allah is powerful over that."

Next to the meaning in the previous verse, it continues to imply that it is no problem for Allah (s.w.t.) that He vanishes you and substitutes you some other people who will be more receptive and more decided in the path of His obedience. And Allah (s.w.t.) is powerful to accomplish this action. The holy verse says:

"If He pleases, He can remove you, O' people! and bring others; and Allah is powerful over that."

When this verse was revealed, the Messenger of Allah (S) struck his hand over the back of Salman Farsi and said:

"These people are Iranians (non-Arabs from Persia)."¹
