you. Allah is aware of what you do. (Surah Al 'Imran: 153)
Nothing occurs, either in the earth or in yourselves, without
its being in a Book before We make it happen. That is some-
thing easy for Allah. That is so that you will not be grieved
about the things that pass you by or exult about the things
that come to you. Allah does not love any vain or boastful
man. (Surat al-Hadid: 22-23)
For a believer, the difficult situations that happen one after
another during the day are the means for him to remember that he
is in a place of testing to become closer to Allah, to mature and to
embrace the teachings of the Qur'an. He is aware that Allah is
training him in this way and preparing him for the endless bless-
ings of the life to come.
