                          THERE IS SURELY EASEWITH EVERY DIFFICULTY

                  As these secrets reveal, one who sincerely turns towards
              God's religion has chosen right from the beginning, a path of
              ease that will bring success and benefit both in this world
              and in the hereafter. To disbelievers, on the other hand, just
              the opposite applies. Disbelievers already have a life filled
              with sorrow, sadness and loss both in this world and in the
              hereafter. At the moment they decided on disbelief, they lose
              both the world and the hereafter. This is related in verses as
              follows:

                  But as for him who is stingy and  thinks he is self-
                  sufficient, and denies the good, We will pave his
                  way to difficulty. (Surat al-Layl: 8-10)
                  God is the Possessor and Creator of everything. It is
              surely above and over any power or support for a person to
              earn God's friendship, aid and support. The one who takes
              God as his friend and submits fully to Him will live, both in
              the world and in the hereafter, in bounty and blessings, and
              no hurt will come to him from any source. This is an
              immutable fact. Since this is the case, every man of wisdom
              and conscience should comprehend these secrets revealed in
              the Qur'an and choose the wise and correct path. That
              disbelievers cannot understand these clear facts is another
              secret by itself. No matter how intelligent or well-educated
              they are, they do not use their reason so they are unable to
              understand and see these facts.
