ISL222 TEXTUAL STUDIES OF THE HADITH<br />
Allah is just and does not recommend injustice. None <strong>of</strong> us knows <strong>the</strong><br />
way to truth. It is only Allah that guides. So, we should leave ourselves<br />
to be so guided. Anytime we are in need <strong>of</strong> help, whe<strong>the</strong>r material or<br />
o<strong>the</strong>rwise, we must not face any human being except Allah. Allah is <strong>the</strong><br />
master provider. He alone can provide for our needs. Allah decrees that<br />
we should be upright in our dealings. We can not be doing good to<br />
benefit Allah or evil in order to harm Him. It is only us who can not do<br />
without Allah. He himself is perfectly indispensable. Allah’s kingdom is<br />
full <strong>of</strong> bounties which can not be added to by our dedication or our<br />
indifference to Him. In <strong>the</strong> day <strong>of</strong> judgement, Allah will value our deeds<br />
and reward us accordingly.<br />
Anybody who does good deed and <strong>the</strong>reby deserves paradise should<br />
thank Allah for guiding him or her to uprightness. However, anybody<br />
who is to enter hell fire as a result <strong>of</strong> evils he or she perpetrates in while<br />
on earth should not blame anyone but him or herself.<br />
