other party. In this sense, this Quranic verse gives us a principle
that is applicable everywhere for all times.
Life is full of problems and differences. In such a situation,
every time you have to make an option between two kinds of
behaviour: negative behaviour in response to negative behaviour
or positive behaviour in response to negative behaviour. Abel

ISerbia’s Novak Djokovic defeated Swiss Roger Federer. After his
victory in the four-hour long match, Djokovic said: “He (Federer)
is a magnificent champion, a magnificent role model. Thank you
for letting me win today.”
When someone achieves great success, he always gives its
credit to himself, his parents, friends or someone else. However,
this is a totally wrong attribution. In fact, it is God Almighty who
has created the successful person, and it is He who provided the
necessary infrastructure for the person to play his requisite role.
All assistance and support supplied to him was directly given
to him by the Creator. Other than God no one has any power
at all to bestow these favours upon a person. It is strange that
every person is so unaware of this fact; he fails to give the credit
of all these blessing to his Creator. This is no doubt the greatest
blunder of mankind.
