        idea of justice, a superiority they do not deserve. But their efforts are
        in vain; they will never attain it. As in the case of satan himself, these
        individuals will also receive the repayment of Allah's justice.
             Every human being is responsible for his own actions. Judging
        others and comparing one's self to them is useless from the point of
        view of one's position in the next world. In the Qur'an, Allah swore
        an oath: "No! I swear by the self-reproaching self." (Surat al-
        Qiyama: 2) It must be remembered that being able to criticize one's
        lower self and see what is wrong with it is a good characteristic of a
        Muslim. Only in this way can a person attain a good moral character
        and receive Allah's mercy.

        sension among believers, and the Qur'an tells us that such people
        should beware of their wickedness. Such people are called hannas
        (devils) in the Qur'an; their characters give secret apprehensions to

        hearts and stir up dissent:
             Say: "I seek refuge with the Lord of humanity, the King of
             humanity, the Allah of humanity, from the evil of the insid-
             ious whisperer who whispers in people's breasts and
             comes from the jinn and from humanity." (Surat an-Nas: 1-
             6)
             These people are absolutely certain that they have been treated
