THOSE WHO DO GOOD MEET GOODNESS

promise in a verse as follows:

Those who do good will have the best and more...
(Surah Yunus: 26)
One needs to contemplate the concept of "infinity" in
order to comprehend the greatness of this reward. Let's
assume that all people who have ever lived on earth so far
and those who will live in the future spend every single
second of their lives counting. This figure will surely become
too large to articulate. Yet, next to "infinity", even this
enormous number would mean nothing. Because "infinite"
means endless, having no limits in time. The abode of those
who display devotion to God in this world will be paradise
in the hereafter. There, they will remain for all eternity, attain
anything their souls desire and will have no limits for this.
This is surely an example that should be reflected on in order
to comprehend the enormity of God's mercy and grace.
