SOME SECRETS OF THE QUR'AN

We do not impose on any one any more than they
can stand. With Us there is a Book, which speaks the
truth. They will not be wronged. (Surat al-
Muminun: 62)

It is easy to live by God's religion
A great majority of people think that religion will make
their lives difficult and impose on them hard obligations. This
is a delusion that Satan whispers to man to lead him astray. As
mentioned earlier, religion is easy. God states that He wills
ease for believing people after difficulties. Besides this, the
fundamentals of religion such as putting trust in God and
having an understanding of fate, removes all burdens,
difficulties and causes of distress or sorrow. For a person who
lives by God's religion, there is no distress, sorrow or despair.
In many verses, God promises to support those who submit
themselves to Him and who help His religion, and to give
them a good life both in this world and in the hereafter. Our
Lord, Who never breaks His word, states as follows:

When those who have fear of God are asked, 'What
has your Lord sent down?' their reply is, 'Good!'
There is good in the world for those who do good,
and the abode of the hereafter is even better. How
wonderful is the abode of those who have fear of
God. (Surat an-Nahl: 30)
God gives the good news to believers that He will render
those who comply with His religion successful:
As for him who gives (in charity) and has fear of
God and confirms the good, We will pave his way to
ease. (Surat al-Layl: 5-7)
