Ayah: 97

قَالَ فَٱذۡهَبۡ فَإِنَّ لَكَ فِي ٱلۡحَيَوٰةِ أَن تَقُولَ لَا مِسَاسَۖ وَإِنَّ لَكَ مَوۡعِدٗا لَّن تُخۡلَفَهُۥۖ وَٱنظُرۡ إِلَىٰٓ إِلَٰهِكَ ٱلَّذِي ظَلۡتَ عَلَيۡهِ عَاكِفٗاۖ لَّنُحَرِّقَنَّهُۥ ثُمَّ لَنَنسِفَنَّهُۥ فِي ٱلۡيَمِّ نَسۡفًا

97. (Moses) said: "Then go. And indeed, for you (your punishment) in this life is to say: "No touching"15, and indeed, there is an appointment for your (final punishment) never you will fail to it. And look at your god to which you remained devoted; we will burn it and scatter it a 'vast' scattering into the sea.

15. In life we need contacts and connections, to meet often with brothers and sisters and to have family gathering, studying the Book of God and the authentic tradition of the Prophet together, and sharing life experiences. Having breakfast, lunch or dinner together. We need not only 'Contact' with our mothers and fathers and family, but we need to have 'connection' with them. Connection is between heart and heart. Sitting together, sharing meals and caring for each other, touching, shaking hands, having eye contact, spending some time together. Let us not maintain just "Contacts" but let us remain "Connected." Caring, sharing and spending time with all our families and friends.
