Page 37 - Before You Regret
P. 37
Harun Yahya (Adnan Oktar) 35
There is another point that adds to the regret of people
who, at the moment of death, comprehend that Allah's
promises are all true. Believers, to whom unbelievers did
not trust and take seriously in the world and even of
whom they made fun, suffer none of the grief unbelievers
go through on that day. They are eternally rewarded with
the best of rewards because they spent all their lives sin-
cerely to attain the consent of Allah. Unlike unbelievers,
their souls are drawn out "gently" without any pain.
(Surat an-Naziat: 2) As Allah describes in the verse, the
angels greet the believers and give the good news of the
Garden.
... those the angels take in a virtuous state. They say,
"Peace be upon you! Enter the Garden for what you
did." (Surat an-Nahl: 32)
This is another mental torment for the unbelievers.
They were also offered the very same opportunities given
to the believers in this world. Yet, they willingly traded
the eternal blessings of the Garden for the short-lived
worldly benefits. Although they were reminded that the
world is merely a place of testing for man and the real
abode is the hereafter, they feigned ignorance about it.
Therefore they didn't engage in good deeds to attain par-
adise. Yet, living by the morals of the Qur'an and being a
sincere believer is possible for everyone only by one's
committed intention. Pondering upon all these adds to
the regret of unbelievers.
