            So it is senseless for a person to write scripts in his own
            imagination and to become caught up in endless appre-
            hensions. Everything will happen as Allah wills it.
               In the Qur’an, Allah tells human beings never to let
            themselves be overwhelmed by despair.
               . . . Do not despair of solace from Allah. No one
               despairs of solace from Allah except for the unbeliev-
               ers. (Surah Yusuf: 87)
               In another verse, He reminds us that those who offer
            prayers to Him will receive answers:
               If My servants ask you about Me, I am near. I answer
               the call of those who call upon Me. They should, there-
               fore, respond to Me and believe in Me so that, hopeful-
               ly, they will be rightly guided. (Surat al-Baqara: 186)
               If He wills, Allah will surely answer a prayer uttered in
            hope, and without any doubt or apprehension.
               There is no reason to be pessimistic about the future or
            to look negatively at things that have happened. One must
            only believe in Allah with a pure heart, trust Him, and sub-
            mit to Him in the knowledge that whatever happens will be
            for their own good. The unbelievers, who refuse to do so,
            will receive the “reward” of a pessimistic and despairing
            spirit. And as a recompense for their persistently denying
            Allah, in the world to come, they will live with no hope of
            salvation. In the Qur’an, Allah describes the state of those
            who deny Him:

               The evildoers will remain timelessly, forever, in the
               punishment of Hell. It will not be eased for them. They
               will be crushed there by despair. We have not wronged

                                  Harun Yahya
