Allah’s Promises and Assistance to
the Believers
In the Qur’an Allah tells us that most people are far re-
moved from the morality of the Qur’an: “But most people have
no faith” (Surat ar-Ra’d, 1). For this reason, some unmindful
and unaware people think they are on the straight path, even
though they deny Allah’s existence. Feeling that their superior
strength and numbers give them a sense of security, such peo-
ple evaluate events superficially and act as if they were truly
superior to others. But they are unaware of a great truth:
Allah’s promises and support to the believers:
Allah will not give the unbelievers any way against the be-
lievers. (Surat an-Nisa, 141)
As mentioned in the verse above, Allah does everything
to their benefit for believers and supports them. In Surat al-
Inshirah, He reveals the secret that, for a Muslim, every diffi-
culty is created with the corresponding ease to bear it. Allah
creates both the disease and the cure, and with every difficulty
comes ease and a solution. This truth is revealed as follows:
For truly with hardship comes ease; truly, with hardship
comes ease. (Surat al-Inshirah, 5-6)
Only believers know this support and assistance of Allah.
Thus, whatever believers encounter, they act with a sense of
contentment and security. Allah makes this promise to His be-
lievers:
Allah knows best who your enemies are. Allah suffices as a
Protector; Allah suffices as a Helper. (Surat an-Nisa, 45)
