Our honesty and upright conduct are not mere matters of policy or convenience; all our life in this world must be lived as in the presence of God. The finest example of Faith we have in the Prophet's life; full of faith, let us render willing obedience to God's Will. Our responsibility, though great, is not a burden greater than we can bear; let us pray for God's assistance, and He will help.


Living in the Presence [2:284-286]

To God belongs all that is in the heavens and earth. Whether you publish what is in your hearts or hide it, God shall make reckoning with you for it. He will forgive whom He will, and chastise whom He will; God is powerful over everything.

The Messenger believes in what was sent down to him from his Lord, and the believers; each one believes in God and His angels, and in His Books and His Messengers; we make no division between any of His Messengers. They say, 'We hear, and obey. Our Lord, grant us Thy forgiveness; unto Thee is the homecoming.'

God charges no soul save to its capacity; standing to its account what it has earned, and against its account what it has earned.

Our Lord, take us not to task if we forget, or make mistake. Our Lord, charge us not with a load such as Thou didst lay upon those before us. Our Lord, do Thou not burden us beyond what we have the strength to bear. And pardon us, and forgive us, and have mercy on us; Thou art our Protector. And help us against the people of the unbelievers.
