"That home of the Hereafter (i.e. Paradise), We shall assign to those
who rebel not against the truth with pride and oppression in the land
nor do mischief by committing crimes. And the good end is for the
pious." (Al-Qasas 28:83)
Fellow Muslims! A scholar among our righteous predecessors wrote a
letter to a brother of his in which he asked him for admonition and
advice on an issue. The scholar wrotehim the following reply:
"To proceed, if Allâh is with you who are you then afraid of? And if
Allâh is against you, who is he unto him you can fix your hope? Bye."
Dear brethren! This short statement is a great admonition, a strong
reminder and a brilliant word. Allâh's care for His slave supersedes
all other cares; and with the care of Allâh, the slave is in no need
of the care of others. The special divine care means protection and
support. Allâh tells us about those who deserve this protection when
He says,
"Truly, Allâh is with those who fear Him (keep their duty unto Him),
and those who are good-doers." (An-Nahl 16:128)
May Allâh include us among the pious and the righteous. May He guide
usto the path of His sincere slaves and keep us away from causes of
His wrath and punishment.
