become anxious, fearful or feel desperate, and if he is momentarily
forgetful, he will again remember and turn to Allah. He knows that
Allah created these things for a good and beneficial purpose. And
he will not think this way only when something serious is about to
happen to him, but, as we said before, in everything great or small
that happens to him in daily life.
For example, think of a person who does not make the
progress he wants in an important undertaking; at the last minute,
just when he was about to complete it, he encounters a serious
problem. This person bursts out in anger, becomes anxious and
miserable and has other kinds of negative reaction. However,
someone who believes that there is good in
everything will try to find what Allah is
showing him by this event. He may
think that Allah drew his attention
to this in order for him to take
more precautions in this matter.
He will take every necessary
precaution and he will
thank Allah that he
has probably pre-
vented
even
greater dam-
age by this
action.
