284     The Glad Tidings of the Messiah (pbuh)





                      Those who believe and have migrated and striven in the
                      Way of Allah, and those who have given refuge and help,
                      they are the true believers. They will have forgiveness and
                      generous provision. (Surat al-Anfal, 74)
                      Their Lord responds to them: "I will not let the deeds of
                      any doer among you go to waste, male or female—you are
                      both the same in that respect. Those who migrated and
                      were driven from their homes, and suffered harm in My
                      Way and fought and were killed, I will erase their bad ac-
                      tions from them and admit them into Gardens with rivers
                      flowing under them, as a reward from Allah. The best of
                      all rewards is with Allah." (Surah Al 'Imran, 195)


                      Gospel

                      "I tell you the truth," Jesus replied, "no one who has left home or
                      brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields for me
                      and the Gospel will fail to receive a hundred times as much in this
                      present age (homes, brothers, sisters, mothers, children and fields—
                      and with them, persecutions) and in the age to come, eternal life.
                      (Mark 10:29-30)
                      All this is evidence that God's judgment is right, and as a result
                      you will be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which you
                      are suffering. God is just: He will pay back trouble to those who
                      trouble you and give relief to you who are troubled, and to us as
                      well... (2 Thessalonians 1:5-7)
