The Three Groups of Sura Al-Waqi'a
- The elite, Muslims who are foremost in the belief
The believers will be in gardens of bliss according to verse Ayah (verse) 39 a lot of the old times. Ayah (verse) 40 and a lot of latter times. Ayah (verse) 38 speaks of those from the right side. Quraish, the tribe that Islam's last Prophet belonged to, he was last of a series of Prophets sent by Allah for the benefit of mankind. The tribal center was Mecca and its task was to watch over the Kaaba. Quraish tribe are descendants of Ibrahim (Islamic prophet) through his son Ismail (prophet). The Quraishs are good-hearted Muslims.
- The righteous - Muslims believers who do good deeds
Righteous, Muslims, believers who do good deeds. According to verse Ayah (verse) 14, it could mean that there will be less number of faithful Muslims in latter times and last time when lies prevail over the truth.
- The unbelievers - Deniers of the truth, criminals
An exemplification is that some unchaste young women in some countries have twice as many sex partners as they did ten years ago. This could mean that there are few believers from the later times and thus few that will come to the gardens of Paradise in latter times.

Famous quotes containing the word groups:
“Instead of seeing society as a collection of clearly defined “interest groups,” society must be reconceptualized as a complex network of groups of interacting individuals whose membership and communication patterns are seldom confined to one such group alone.”
—Diana Crane (b. 1933)
