ONLY IN THE REMEMBRANCE OF GOD DO HEARTS FIND SATISFACTION

the remembrance of God. Only in the remembrance
of God can the heart find peace. (Surat ar-Ra'd: 28)

This is a very important secret that God reveals to
mankind in the Qur'an. Unaware of this fact, many people
spend their lives under the delusion that worldly gifts would
bring satisfaction. As if they would never die and meet the
day of reckoning, they greedily strive to possess the values
pertaining to this world.
Yet this is a great delusion. Nothing possessed in this
world can bring true peace and happiness. Only believers
who are sincerely devoted to God and who are cognisant of
God's mercy, compassion and protection over them can
attain the peaceful state of the heart. God grants this relief on
the heart of the person who sees the evidences of God's
creation and remembers Him at all times. Therefore it is vain
to seek for ease or peace and happiness by any other means.
