Wonders Through Time - the astonishing historical marvels of the world

Throughout the ages, humankind has built astonishing monuments — walls that stretch across mountains, cities carved into stone, temples aligned with the stars, and palaces that whisper of love and loss. Yet behind every wonder lies a deeper truth: all power, beauty, and wisdom belong only to Allah, the Creator of all things. In Wonders Through Time, Ahmad Abubakar Mustafa takes readers on a journey across centuries — from the Great Wall of China to the Taj Mahal — unveiling how each civilization’s efforts, though grand and awe-inspiring, were still signs of human limitation before the greatness of Allah. These chapters invite reflection rather than pride, showing how empires rose and fell, but the power of the Almighty remains eternal. Every stone laid, every structure designed, every kingdom built — all exist by the permission of Allah, and all will return to dust when He decrees. This book transforms worldly wonders into spiritual lessons — calling readers to see beyond human achievement and recognize the signs of Allah (Ayātullah) in the rise and fall of nations. It reminds us that true greatness is not in what humans build, but in how they submit to their Lord.
