                              God's Promise and Help To Believers

                  their faith and they said, "God is enough for us and the
                  Best of Guardians." So they returned with blessings and
                  bounty from God and no evil touched them. They
                  pursued the pleasure of God. God's favour is indeed
                  immense. (Surah Al 'Imran: 173-174)

                  Let us remind ourselves that disbelievers may from time
              to time seem to have the upper hand. However, it is merely a
              trial from God for believers. As we said earlier, it is part of a
              divine plan to distinguish the true believers from those who
              are weaker in faith. Believers who put their trust in God,
              show patience and see good in all that happens, show forth
              clearly their loyalty and trust in God. That is why, those who
              will earn God's pleasure, both in this world and in the life of
              the Hereafter, and who will ultimately triumph, are the
              believers:
                  As for those who make God their friend, and His
                  Messenger and those who believe: it is the party of God
                  who are victorious! (Surat al-Ma'ida: 56)
