On the RoadtoJannah message board I typically post a Hadith of the Day and the Ayat of the Day. I see that there is already a Hadith of the Day thread here so inshAllah I intend to contribute to that. However, when doing a few searches on this board I could not find an Ayat of the Day thread, so I decided to make one. If there is one already please merge this and point me in the right direction inshAllah. Also if everyone could contribute that would be wonderful. Discussion, Ayats, anything inshAllah.
JazakhAllah Khair.

Do they not then consider what is before them and what is behind them of the heaven and the earth? If We please We will make them disappear in the land or bring down upon them a portion from the heaven; most surely there is a sign in this for every servant turning (to Allah).
Say: \"Shall we indeed call on others besides Allah,- things that can do us neither good nor harm,
- and turn on our heels after receiving guidance from Allah? - like one whom the satans have made into a fool,
wandering bewildered through the earth,
his friends calling, come to us\', (vainly) guiding him to the path.\" Say: \"Allah\'s guidance is the (only) guidance,
