           vation. The reason why an idolater fails to realize the truth
           and believes that it does not apply to him or her, despite
           reading this book, is one of Allah's miracles. Naturally, the
           best and hoped for outcome is for such people to attain sal-
           vation. It must not be forgotten that all hearts are in the
           hands of Allah and that by His will He will guide those who
           sincerely draw close to Him, repent, realize the reality of
           their situation, and seek salvation only from Him. Therefore,
           one has to guard against succumbing to idolatry. One way
           to do this is to consider the possibility right from the start
           that Allah exists, what this fact means, and, with this in
           mind, review the beliefs and worldview of one's society, as
           well as one's personal beliefs, worldview, and opinion of
           Islam. There is no shame in recognizing and correcting
           one's faults; on the contrary, this is a sign of sincerity and a
           proof of one's fear for and respect of Allah.
              As we have seen thus far, rejecting the Qur'an and the
           Sunna of our Prophet (May Allah bless him and grant him
           peace) and adhering to superstitious and misguided rites,
           practices, and beliefs, lead one to strife and idolatry rather
           than to the true path. For that reason, the only solution is to
           tightly embrace the way of our Prophet (May Allah bless him
           and grant him peace), the way of the Qur'an.
