David's Wisdom

David said, β€œHe has wronged you by demanding your ewe in addition to his own. Many partners oppress one another, except those who believe and do good, but they are few.” David realized We were testing him, so he sought forgiveness, fell in prostration, and repented.

38:24(David) said: He hath wronged thee in demanding thine ewe in addition to his ewes, and lo! many partners oppress one another, save such as believe and do good works, and they are few. And David guessed that We had tried him, and he sought forgiveness of his Lord, and he bowed himself and fell down prostrate and repented.
