Harun Yahya
(Adnan Oktar)
in the Qur’an, they are recognised by the mark of prostration on their
faces, and of course the mark of prostration is light in the face:
… You see them bowing and prostrating, seeking Allah’s good
favour and His pleasure. Their mark is on their faces, the traces of
prostration. That is their likeness in the Torah. And their likeness
in the Injil is that of a seed which puts up a shoot and makes it
strong so that it thickens and grows up straight upon its stalk, fill-
ing the sowers with delight… (Surat al-Fath: 29)
By Allah’s grace, their facial expressions are beautiful and under-
standing. Their conversations are pleasing to Allah and their words are
always edifying. Allah says in the Qur’an that their words always pro-
duce good results:
Do you not see how Allah makes a metaphor of a good word: a
good tree whose roots are firm and whose branches are in heaven?
It bears fruit regularly by its Lord’s permission. Allah makes
metaphors for people so that hopefully they will pay heed. (Surah
Ibrahim: 24-25)
They are obedient, gentle, accommodating, open, sincere and
warm. For this reason, they live good lives filled with love and friend-
ship. Allah allows them to experience these blessings in this world, and
in the world to come, He will give them endless blessings.
In many hadith, our Prophet speaks of the noble qualities of those
who enter the Garden, for example:
What are the things that most ensure they enter the Garden? Fear of
Allah and noble qualities of character… (Ahmad Diya ad-Din al-
Kamushkhanawi, Ramuz al-Ahadith, vol. 1, p.12/8)
Our Prophet often reminds us in his hadith that we must “be just,”
“merciful,” “patient,” “generous,” “pure,” “chaste,” “honourable” and
“truthful.”
