             Throughout this book, it has been explained that some people
         have a depressed, unhappy, withdrawn and tense spiritual state.
         The purpose in writing this book was not only to tell why people are
         unhappy, which insincerities will return to them as torment and
         what dangers await them in this world and the Hereafter, but first
         and foremost to show them how to rescue themselves from troubled
         spiritual states and to achieve sincerity. Everyone should know that
         to live a comfortable, peaceful and happy life in this world and the
         next is extremely easy—and above all rational and correct.
             For this, even if a person has some faith, he needs to sincerely
         intend to become "truly pious." In the Qur'an, Allah describes the
         characteristics of righteous believers. There is only one morality pe-
         culiar to the righteous. Allah has promised that those with the
         morality of the pious believer will find salvation both in this world
         and the Hereafter. To achieve this, it is a necessary priority to re-
         member that every event takes place with Allah's permission and
         under Allah's control. Knowing this very important fact and acting
         at every moment in its knowledge are most important methods by
         which a person can rescue himself from secret sorrows in worldly
         life. One who grasps this fact in the full sense will know that every-
         thing is a blessing for him, no matter what befalls him, and thus
         greets everything with gladness.
             Truly religious people believe in destiny and know that it is out
