Page 93 - Those Who Exhaust All Their Pleasures In This Life

Adnan Oktar 91

In the Qur’an, Allah reveals the following about those who
maintain their faith:

The forerunners – the first of the Migrants (Muhajirun)
and the Supporters (Ansar) – and those who have fol-
lowed them in doing good: Allah is pleased with them
and they are pleased with Him. He has prepared
Gardens for them with rivers flowing under them,
remaining in them timelessly, for ever and ever. That is
the great victory. (Surat at-Tawba: 100)
A person with faith will do everything he can to be the
kind of person Allah describes in the Qur’an, so as to
please Him. The joy that their sincere efforts create in their
spirit, as well as the sense of contentment and security
that it engenders in the conscience, give them great pleas-
ure. All these are pleasures that believers will enjoy forev-
er in the world to come. Allah announces the glad tidings
of mercy, approval and Paradise for His servants:
Say: “Shall I tell you of something better than that?”
Those who guard against evil will have Gardens with
their Lord, with rivers flowing under them, remaining in
them timelessly, forever, and purified spouses, and the
Pleasure of Allah. Allah sees His servants. (Surah Al
‘Imran: 15)
But ignorant people live unaware that these blessings
even exist. They do not listen to their consciences and
instead, pursue their own desires and passions; as a result,
they are deprived of all these good things now and to
come. And as is the case with other blessings, their depri-
vation will last in the world to come as long as Allah wills it.
