             When this secret is comprehended, the world becomes like par-
        adise for any believer. All distressful material worries, anxieties,
        and fears vanish. The person grasps that the entire universe has one
        single Sovereign, that He creates the entire physical world as He
        pleases, and that all one has to do is to turn unto Him. He then sub-
        mits himself entirely to Allah "to be devoted to His service." (Surah
        Al ‘Imran, 35)
             To comprehend this secret is the greatest gain in the world.
             With this secret, another very important reality mentioned in
        the Qur'an is unveiled: the fact that "Allah is nearer to man than his
        jugular vein." (Surah Qaf, 16) As everybody knows, the jugular vein
        is inside the body. What could be nearer to a person than his inside?
        This situation can be easily explained by the fact that we cannot get

        no other helper and provider for man than Allah. Nothing is ab-
        solute but Allah; He is the only absolute being in Whom one can
        seek refuge, appeal for help, and count on for reward.
             Wherever we turn, there is the Face of Allah …


             Conclusion
             Unbelievers should be aware of one further truth: While they
        mock the believers or try to harm them, they are in fact submitted to
        the destiny that Allah has predetermined for them. Every mocking
        word they utter, every unpleasant act they commit, every unbeliev-
        ing thought that crosses their minds, and every plan they make is a
        part of this destiny. Although the unbelievers do not know it, they
        are Allah's servants and, by following His instructions, provide an
        important service. While they mock people who live according to
