culty. Because they do not put
their trust in Allah, they become anxious, filled with
regret and sadness to such an extent that their health
is often damaged. However, a human being does not
know what is good or bad for himself; only Allah knows
this. This is revealed in a verse of the Qur’an:
… It may be that you hate something when it is good for
you and it may be that you love something when it is bad
for you. Allah knows and you do not know. (Surat al-
Baqara: 216)

What appears to be difficult or worrisome in this world can
actually turn into a good thing that will lead one to the Garden.
Believers who are aware of this have the ability to keep themselves
untouched by things that appear to be difficult or worrisome. The
person who subjects himself to Allah and accepts everything He
has created is content and at ease. He thinks of everything that
happens to him as something good that has come from Allah. In
the Garden, by Allah’s mercy, he will live far from sadness, wor-
ry and other such things. The Prophet told us about the maidens
of the Garden who say:

We are those who live forever so we do not perish, and we
are those who live in ease so we do not live in want and dis-
tress, and we are those who are pleased and contented so
we are not dissatisfied. Happy are those who are for us and
for whom we are. (At-Tirmidhi)
