CHOOSING “THE MOST” OF GOD’S APPROVAL IN
EVERY RESPECT AND ASPIRING TO VOLUNTEER
FOR SERVING ISLAM, ALTRUISTIC DEEDS, AND
CHALLENGING TASKS IF NEED BE THROUGHOUT
THE DAY
Those believers who stay behind–other than those forced to by
necessity–are not the same as those who strive in the Way of God,
sacrificing their wealth and themselves. God has given those who
strive with their wealth and themselves a higher rank than those

who stay behind. God has promised the Best to both, but God has
preferred those who strive over those who stay behind by an
immense reward. (Surat an-Nisa’, 95)
Do you make the giving of water to the pilgrims and looking after
the Sacred Mosque (Masjid al-Haram) the same as believing in
God and the Last Day and striving in the Way of God? They are
not equal in the Sight of God. God does not guide wrongdoing peo-
ple. Those who believe and migrate and strive in the Way of God
with their wealth and themselves have a higher rank with God. They

are the ones who are victorious. (Surat at-Tawba, 19-20)
… Those of you who gave and fought before the Victory are not
the same as those who gave and fought afterwards. They are higher
in rank. But to each of them God has promised the Best. God is
aware of what you do. (Surat al-Hadid, 10)

ACTING WITH THE KNOWLEDGE THAT GOD WILL
GREATLY REWARD EVERY GOOD DEED
Those who do good will have the best and more! Neither dust nor
debasement will darken their faces. They are the Companions of the
Garden, remaining in it timelessly, for ever. (Surah Yunus, 26)
