           relatively insignificant matter, but believers should remember
           that those who do it and do not repent of their actions will be
           given their just return in this world as well as the Hereafter.
           This is one of Allah's laws, from which no one is exempt. Allah
           reveals the end of the people of the Prophet Saleh (as):
               How terrible were My punishment and warning! We sent
               a single Blast against them, and they were just like a
               thatcher’s reeds. (Surat al-Qamar, 30-31)


               Accused of Madness
               Throughout history, unbelievers have used similar meth-
           ods to express their opposition and hate toward the messen-
           gers of Almighty Allah. The accusations made against the
           Prophet Joseph (as), Mary (as), and the Companions of our
           Prophet (saas) regarding their chastity prove that these are
           classic methods. Another frequent method is to accuse the
           messengers of madness. Many prophets, including the
           Prophet Muhammad (saas), were thus accused because of
           their devotion to Allah and His religion, as stated in the fol-
           lowing verses:
               Or is it that they do not recognize their messenger and
               therefore do not acknowledge him? Or do they say: “He
               is a man possessed,” when he has brought the truth to
               them? But most of them hate the truth. If the truth were
               to follow their whims and desires, the heavens and Earth
               and everyone in them would have been brought to ruin.
               No indeed! We have given them their Reminder, but they
               have turned away from it. (Surat al-Mu’minun, 69-71)
