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.
