ease for you; He does not
desire difficulty for you…"
(Surat al-Baqara, 185) and:
"We have made the Qur’an
easy to remember. But is there any rememberer there?" (Surat al-
Qamar, 17). Therefore, the believers must know that choosing the easier
path is a requirement of the Qur’an. In addition, they must not let
Allah’s promise, "We will ease you to the Easy Way" (Surat al-A`la, 8),
slip their mind. As Allah says:
Strive for Allah with the striving due to Him. He has selected
you and not placed any constraint upon you in the religion—the
religion of your forefather Ibrahim. He named you Muslims be-
fore and also in this, so that the Messenger could be a witness
over you and so you could be witnesses over all mankind. So es-
tablish prayer, pay the alms, and hold fast to Allah. He is your
Protector—the Best Protector, the Best Helper. (Surat al-Hajj, 78)
