(Surah Al-Qasas 28:22-28), Allah (swt), the Mighty and Glorious, will protect them from every harmful beast, every aggressive thief, and every venomous creature until they return to their family and home. Additionally, seventy-seven angels will accompany them, seeking forgiveness for them until they return and set it (the stick) down."
