10.              Our love for Him has no boundary.

Those of faith are overflowing in their love for Allah.[35]

But thou dost wreak thy vengeance on us simply because we believed in the signs of our Lord when they reached us! Our Lord! pour out on us patience and constancy, and Take our souls unto Thee as Muslims (who bow to Thy will)”! [36]

 

She said: “O my Lord! I have indeed wronged my soul: I do (now) submit (in Islam) with Solomon to the Lord of the Worlds.”[37]

 

O ye who believe! if any from among you turn back from his Faith, soon will Allah produce a people whom He will love as they will love Him.[38]

 

11.              We begin to appreciate lives and love the livings, all because of Him.

Allah will bring a people, He shall love them and they shall love Him, lowly before the believers, mighty against the unbelievers, they shall strive hard in Allah’s way and shall not fear the censure of any censurer. [39]

12.              He becomes our life and goal. We live our life in total devotion and dedication to Him.

Say, “Surely my prayer and my sacrifice and my life and my death are (all) for Allah, the Lord of the worlds.” [40]

Say, “Allah (it is Whom) I serve, being sincere to Him in my obedience.” [41]

13.              Due to our total devotion and dedication to Him, He enhances our faith and our knowledge.

He granteth wisdom to whom He pleaseth; and he to whom wisdom is granted receiveth indeed a benefit overflowing.[42]

They said: “Glory to Thee: of knowledge we have none, save that Thou hast taught us: in truth it is Thou who art perfect in knowledge and wisdom.” [43]

Those are the ones whom Allah has guided, and those are the ones endued with understanding. [44]

Say: “Are those equal, those who know and those who do not know? It is those who are endued with understanding that receive admonition.” [45]

15.              We are now able to accept without qualification or exception His Absolute Greatness and Wisdom and are steadfast in this, come what may.

Mankind and all other creations are subjected to Allah and Allah is not subjected to them.[46]

He cannot be questioned concerning what He does and they shall be questioned. [47]

“Wherefore” is the gate of Hell.[48]

Our Lord! Thou hast not created this in vain! Glory be to Thee. [49]

Allah is Full of Knowledge and Wisdom. [50]

16.              We are able to accept His Divine Plan as complete and perfect without much ado and marvel at Its meticulousness in that, not even an atom is amiss. Every existence (including space and time) and anything in connection thereto are covered. This heralds His Supremacy and Exaltedness and there is no word to describe this superb achievement. No sooner we are swoon into His Majestic Splendour.

There does not lie concealed from your Lord the weight of an atom in the earth or in the heaven, nor any thing less than that nor greater, but it is in a clear book.[51]

We have not neglected anything in the Book.[52]

There is none to change the words of Allah. [53]

And He it is Who originates the creation, then reproduces it, and it is easy to Him; and His are the most exalted attributes in the heavens and the earth, and He is the Mighty, the Wise.[54]

17.              We can also now accept that all all the provisions in His Divine Plan are for the best interest of mankind in all and whatsoever situation.

And We created not the heaven and the earth and all that is between them in vain.[55]

We created not the heavens and the earth and all between them but for just ends.[56]

Allah is never unjust in the least degree. [57]

For Allah is never unjust to His servants[58]

Then which of the favours of your Lord will ye deny? [59]

 

Then which of the gifts of thy Lord, (O man), wilt thou dispute about? [60]

18.              Once we have accepted the aforesaid Truth then the only thing left to do is to “throw in the towel” and surrender; this is Islam.

O you who believe! enter into submission one and all.[61]

Surely the men who submit and the women who submit… Allah has prepared for them forgiveness and a mighty reward. [62]

Says, “Are those equal, those who know and those who do not know? [63]

And none understand them but the learned.[64]

19.              We also accept that He has every right to test us before accepting our act of surrender.

 

Do men think that they will be left alone on saying, We believe, and not be tried? And certainly We tried those 18before them, so Allah will certainly know those who are true and He will certainly know the liars. [65]

We try you by evil and good by way of probation. [66]

20.              During the trying time, we are able to hold on to Him as this is the only rope to salvation as everything is from Him and returns to Him.

Who, when a misfortune befalls them, say: Surely we are Allah’s and to Him we shall surely return. Those are they on whom are blessings and mercy from their Lord, and those are the followers of the right course. [67]

Whoever disbelieves in the Satan and believes in Allah he indeed has laid hold on the firmest handle, which shall not break off, and Allah is Hearing, Knowing.[68]

 

21.              After we have surrendered our Life in total devotion to Him, we must now equally surrender our mental composition to Him. We must relook at our thinking process. If we do just that we would eventually realise that we did not create the thoughts but they are there in our mind and we act accordingly. This is so because we are not the Creator, we are His creation. This also applies to our thoughts; they too are creation created by our Lord not by us. They were created (at the time when He commanded, “Be!”) and placed in the Divine Plan bidding for the time of their scheduled appearance. This explained why knowledge of Computers, Airplanes, Electricity and other knowledge which we have in our era are not available in the time of Adam right up to our Prophet Muhammad [pbuh]. All these had been scheduled to appear at the proper time.

Does Man think that he will be left uncontrolled?[69]

No misfortune can happen on earth or in your souls but is recorded in a decree before We bring it into existence: that is truly easy for Allah[70]

Nor is hidden from thy Lord (so much as) the weight of an atom on the earth or in heaven. And not the least and not the greatest of these things but are recorded in a clear Record. [71]
