THE SILENT LANGUAGE OF EVIL

            with the morality of the Qur'an. If one resists to live the kind of life
            pleasing to Allah, and thinks he is being treated unjustly in the petty
            matters that conflict with his lower self, he must compensate for
            these aspects of his character. Otherwise, his other endeavors will be
            in vain.
                 Those who refuse to think about this, telling themselves that
            they have shortcomings in certain areas and placing their better as-
            pects to the fore, claim that their good points have never been no-
            ticed and that their negative aspects have always been complained
            of. In doing this, they are insincerely trying to show that they are
            right. However, if a person does have some good aspects, they'll cer-
            tainly get noticed. Even if no one else perceives them, it is enough
            that Allah does.
                 But the fact that a person has good qualities is no reason for his
            shortcomings not to be ignored. Allah will examine everyone in the
            next life regarding the deeds he has done, and everyone will receive
            the appropriate reward for the good and the evil he has done. For
            this reason, if people with faith tell another of his shortcomings, it
            will be beneficial for him. He will certainly benefit from compensat-
            ing for these deficiencies. For this reason, those who espouse an in-

            sincere morality use their secret methods to stop those others who
            summon them to goodness, but in so doing, they are harming only
            themselves.

                 Even while the angels take their souls, they will
                 claim that they have been treated unjustly, saying
                 that they have done no wickedness and have
                 been treated unjustly

                 Those who have become slaves to the idea that they're being
            treated unjustly will never renounce it until the moment they die.
