Harun Yahya                        75

           own making, if he is proud of his successes, if, thinking he is
           adequate, he never asks himself the question: “Can I be more
           conscientious?”, and if he behaves arrogantly and conceited-
           ly. Therefore, every individual should seriously avoid such
           misconduct and should realize that he is in need and impotent
           against Allah and that Allah may take everything away from
           him if He so wills. Allah has told us what the ultimate fate of
           such people will be:
               When it is said to him, “Fear Allah,” he is seized by pride
               which drives him to wrongdoing. Hell will be enough for
               him! What an evil resting-place! (Surat al-Baqara: 206)

               86. What should a humble person be like
               according to the morals of the Qur’an?

               A humble person, as opposed to a boastful person,
           knows that everything he owns is given to him by Allah either
           as a blessing or as a trial. He is aware that as a human being,
           he is impotent and needy and that he does not have the
           power to do anything unless Allah so wills. Therefore, he
           always turns to Allah and thanks Him for every blessing. Allah
           has praised the humble attitude of the believers:
               The servants of the All-Merciful are those who walk
               modestly on the earth... (Surat al-Furqan: 63)


               87. Will I be responsible for my intentions?
               Every individual is responsible for his intentions. Allah
           makes this clear when He says:
               “…He will take you to task for the intention in your
               hearts have made…” (Surat al-Baqara: 225).
