                   over all things. (Surat al-Ma’ida, 19)
                   Messengers were a great blessing to the societies to
              which they were sent, for they taught people things they did
              not know and showed them how to live a life of contentment,
              security, peace, and justice. As a consolation, the Qur’an tells
              us that throughout history only a very few people have ever

              approached the messengers out of appreciation of their being
              a great mercy for them: “Those are the Signs of the Book.
              And what has been sent down to you from your Lord is the
              Truth. But most people have no faith” (Surat ar-Ra’d, 1).
              Those who denied Allah could never believe; others believed
              what the messengers said but never implemented their teach-
              ings or lived by the Qur’an’s morality. Such situations never

              deterred the messengers, however, because their sole desire
              was to see their people believe, know the blessing of this life
              and the Hereafter, and live the best and happiest life possible:
              “Then We will rescue Our Messengers and those who be-
              lieve as well. It is incumbent upon Us to rescue the believ-
              ers” (Surah Yunus, 103). The messengers receive no reward if
              the people around then believe and are happy in both worlds.
              But because of their sincere fear and respect for Allah and
              their superior morality, they spend their lives eagerly fulfill-

              ing these two commands as best as they can.
                   They endure great hardships and face many trials, and
              yet remain undaunted by anything. With Allah’s help and
              support, they are paradigms of courage and, by His will, are
              always victorious.

                   Allah has written: “I will be victorious, I and My
