prayer and give the alms, and obey God and His Messenger. They
are the people on whom God will have mercy. God is Almighty, All-
Wise. (Surat at-Tawba, 71)

(Believers are) those who, when they are wronged, defend them-
selves. (Surat ash-Shura, 39)
A Messenger has come to you from among yourselves. Your suf-
fering is distressing to him; he is deeply concerned for you; he is
gentle and merciful to the believers. (Surat at-Tawba,128)
The believers are brothers, so make peace between your brothers

and have fear of God so that hopefully you will gain mercy. (Surat
al-Hujurat, 10)
The believers should not take disbelievers as friends rather than
believers. Anyone who does that has nothing to do with God at
all–unless it is because you are afraid of them. God advises you to
be afraid of Him. God is the final destination. (Surah Al ‘Imran, 28)

NOT FEELING SORRY FOR THE THINGS WE HAVE
LOST OR BECOMING SPOILED BY THE BLESSINGS
BESTOWED UPON US
Nothing occurs, either in the earth or in yourselves, without its

being in a Book before We make it happen. That is something easy
for God. That is so that you will not be grieved about the things
that pass you by or exult about the things that come to you. God
does not love any vain or boastful man. (Surat al-Hadid, 22-23)
Remember when you were scrambling up the slope, refusing to turn
back for anyone, and the Messenger was calling to you from the rear.
God rewarded you with one distress in return for another so you
would not feel grief for what escaped you or what assailed you.
God is aware of what you do. (Surah Al ‘Imran, 153)
