Harun Yahya
107
For someone who lives according
to the teachings of the Qur'an, the
blessings of this world such
as
property,
possessions and
position are only means by which
to draw near and give thanks to Allah. For this
reason, it is never his aim to possess the blessings
of this world, which he knows he will only enjoy for
a limited time. For example, one of the most enduring
blessings of which a person can make use in this life is a
house, but it benefits a person for a couple of decades of
his life at most. When his life in this world comes to an end,
he will go away and leave the house he loved, valued and
worked so hard to own throughout his life. There is no doubt that
death marks the definite separation between an individual and his
earthly blessings.
A believer knows that Allah is the real Owner of the blessings
given him and that they come only from Him. He does everything he
can to give thanks to our Lord Who created these blessings and to
show his appreciation and gratitude. In return for His countless bless-
ings, he will always make every effort to give thanks by what he says
