1396 Their Faith is the cause as well as the instrument of their Guidance,-the Kindly Light which leads them as well as the
Joy which fills their Soul. (10.9)
11:115 - And be steadfast in patience; for verily Allah will not suffer the reward of the righteous to
perish.
13:29 - "For those who believe and work righteousness is (every) blessedness and a beautiful
place of (final) return." 1844
1844 "Blessedness": Tuba: an internal state of satisfaction, an inward joy which is difficult to describe in words, but which
reflects itself in the life of the good man, through good and ill fortune, through good report and evil. And then, there is
always the final goal to which his eyes are turned, the beautiful Home of rest in the Hereafter, after this life's struggles
are over. That goal is Allah Himself. (13.29)
16:30 - To the righteous (when) it is said "What is it that your Lord has revealed?" they say "All that
is good." To those who do good there is good in this world and the Home of the Hereafter is
even better. And excellent indeed is the Home of the righteous 20532054
2053 The contrast and parallelism is with xvi. 24, where the ungodly in their levity and their deliberate rejection of guidance
find no profit from Allah's Revelation. (16.30)
2054 Unlike the ungodly, the good find good everywhere,-in this world and in the Hereafter; because they understand and
are in accord with the truths around them. (16.30)
16:22 - Your Allah is One Allah: as to those who believe not in the Hereafter their hearts refuse to
know and they are arrogant. 2045
2045 Everything points to Allah, the One True Eternal God. If so, there is a Hereafter, for He has declared it. In so far as
people do not believe this, the fault is in their Will; they do not wish to believe, and the motive behind is arrogance, the
sin which brought about the fall of Iblis: ii. 34. (16.22)
17:9 - Verily this Qur'an doth guide to that which is most right (or stable) and giveth the glad tidings
to the Believers who work deeds of righteousness that they shall have a magnificent reward;
2183
2183 The instability and crookedness of the Jewish soul having been mentioned, the healing balm which should have cured
it is now pointed out. The Message of the Qur-an is for all. Those who have Faith and show that Faith in their conduct
must reap their spiritual reward. But those who reject Faith cannot escape punishment. Apart from what is past, apart
from questions of national or racial history, there is a Hope,-and a Danger- for every soul. (17.9)
17:25 - Your Lord knoweth best what is in your hearts: if ye do deeds of righteousness verily He is
Most Forgiving to those who turn to Him again and again (in true penitence). 2207
2207 It is the heart, and its hidden and secret motives, by which we are judged: for Allah knows them all. (17.25)
18:2 - (He hath made it) Straight (and Clear) in order that He may warn (the godless) of a terrible
Punishment from Him and that He may give Glad Tidings to the Believers who work righteous
deeds that they shall have a goodly Reward. 2327
2327 Qaiyim: straight, that which has no bends and no corners to mystify people, that which speaks clearly and
unambiguously, that which guides to the right path. Cf. ix. 36, where the adjective is used for a straight usage, in
contrast to usages, which tend to mystify and deceive people. The Qur-an is above all things straight, clear, and
perspicuous. Its directions are plain for everyone to understand. Any book that deals with the highest mysteries of
spiritual life must necessarily have portions whose full meaning is clearer to some minds than to others not so well
prepared. But here there is nowhere any mystification, any desire to wrap up things in dark sayings repugnant to
human reason. Allah's purpose is to give clear warning of spiritual dangers and lead up to the highest bliss. (18.2)
19:96 - On those who believe and work deeds of righteousness will (Allah) Most Gracious bestow
Love. 2532
2532 His own love, and the love of man's fellow-creatures, in this world and in the Hereafter. Goodness breeds love and
peace, and sin breeds hatred and contention. (19.96)
20:75 - But such as comes to Him as Believers who have worked righteous deeds--for them are
ranks exalted
21:94 - Whoever works any act of righteousness and has Faith his endeavor will not be rejected:
We shall record it in his favor. 2751
2751 Allah gives credit for every act of righteousness, however small: when combined with sincere Faith in Allah, it
becomes the stepping stone to higher and higher things. It is never lost. (21.94)
