DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Arbaà, 3rd day of Swafar (Wednesday 2nd October, 2019). REAL SUCCESS ON EARTH. BismilLah.
Peace of mind, contentment, happiness and freedom from worries and anxiety etc… these are what everyone wants, and these are the ways in which people can have a good life and find complete happiness and joy. There are religious means of achieving this which is natural and practical means, but no one can combine all of them except the believers; although other people may achieve some of them, they will miss out on others.
In some cases, those who achieve many of them will live a joyful life and a good life; in other cases, those who fail to achieve all of them will live a life of misery and hardship. And there are others which are in between, according to the means they are able to attain.
The main means is through Faith and righteous deeds: This is the greatest and most fundamental of means. ALLAH says:
“Whoever works righteousness whether male or female — while he (or she) is a true believer (of Islamic Monotheism) verily, to them ALLAH will give a good life (in this world with respect, contentment and lawful provision), and ALLAH shall pay them certainly a reward in proportion to the best of what they used to do (i.e. Paradise in the Hereafter).”[al-Nahl 16:97].
ALLAH tells us and promises us that whoever combines faith with righteous deeds will have a good life and a good reward in this world and in the Hereafter. The reason for this is clear: those who believe in ALLAH with sincere faith that motivates them to do righteous deeds that change hearts and attitudes and guides them to the straight path in this world and the Hereafter follow principles and guidelines by means of which they deal with everything that happens to them, be it the causes of happiness and excitement or the causes of anxiety, worry and grief.
May ALLAH keep guiding us all and aid us to a successful life on earth and afterwards. Aameen.
