Page 77 - In The Name Of Allah, The All-Merciful And Most Merciful

Harun Yahya (Adnan Oktar)

pens according to His will: “No misfortune occurs ex-
cept by Allah’s permission. Whoever believes in Allah –

He will guide his [or her] heart. Allah has knowledge of all
things” (Surat at-Taghabun, 11). Unbelievers, who have no un-
derstanding of destiny, endure great anxiety, stress, and dis-
content – totally unlike believers, who are content as a mercy
from Allah, secure in the knowledge that they are surrounded
by His endless mercy, and that everything happens for a rea-
son.

Believers may encounter anxiety and hardship, such as the
loss of their possessions or physical strength, illness, injury, or
death. But they accept these as tests, as wonderful manifesta-
tions of His name All Merciful and Most Merciful. They realize
that their moral character in such situations has great value in
His sight. This pleasure, which belongs only to believers, en-
ables them to face any difficulty without the accompanying feel-
ings of sorrow, stress, pain, panic, or fear that are common
among unbelievers. Allah will turn the apparent evil into good

for them, bring them through the test, and reward them both in
this world and the next for their patience and endurance: “Allah
will not give the unbelievers any way against the believers”
(Surat an-Nisa, 141). Those who trust and rely on Allah no
longer experience any fear or sadness:

Those who say “Our Lord is Allah” and then go straight
will feel no fear and will know no sorrow. (Surat al-Ahqaf,
13)
Not so! All who submit themselves completely to Allah and

are good-doers will find their reward with their Lord. They
will feel no fear and will know no sorrow. (Surat al-Baqara,
112)
