that surround them; they see the
             world’s real face, which makes them
             “feel depressed.” Of course, only peo-
             ple without faith get caught up in this
             state.
                 Those who believe with certainty in
             the existence of the Hereafter know that
             all possibilities that stretch the bound-

             this world. In verse 35 of Surah Qaf, He re-
