hamdu Lillahi Rabbil Alameen wa salatu salam ala Sayyidina
Muhammad wa ala alihi wa sahbihi wa Rocca wa seldom at the Sleeman
Kathira on Elomi, Diem and mabank. The continuation of these lessons
of Abner ARPA Illa al Eskandari skateable Hichem, the book of
wisdoms. The next aphorism
we're going to cover is number 235 on page 207. If not authority,
Allah says, in general either either add him, Kala takuna Serkin
in LA him
or other in US area come in CO Lishi, hatherleigh, shahada and
who shape
quite a really simple but very important idea, he only made
affliction come at the hands of people so that you not repurposing
them.
He only allowed difficulties and afflictions to come to you from
other people, sometimes the closest people to us,
just so that you don't get too comfortable with them.
You don't repose in them, but rather in Allah subhanho wa Taala
all the time.
He wanted to drive you out of everything so that nothing would
divert you from him.
He wanted to drive you out of everything so that nothing would
divert you from him.
So before we start looking at this in a bit more depth, what's going
on here is that look, difficulties are part and parcel of this world,
this world is full of change in difficulty. And if you look
around, whether that be in the crops, whether that be in the
land, or whatever, sometimes, good things happen. Sometimes bad
things happen. Sometimes crops, there's a good season. Other times
there's a bad season. So just like with everything else, whether that
be natural growth of plants and trees and products, trees,
sometimes mashallah you have these wonderful trees, they provide a
lot of fruit and everything in shade. But then other times, you
actually have trees that are struck and afflicted by disease.
There's the elm tree in the UK, which is,
which has a problem right now, among other trees as well. So
likewise, with everything else in this world, you have a car, he
goes very well, suddenly breaks sometimes has a bit of an issue.
So the humans are just like the same thing. You just can never
have a perfection in this world. It's not designed for it. There's
just no way to have perfection in this world. So difficulties come.
Now it's about how we react to that difficulty. That really
matters. Because that is upon which the satisfaction,
contentment
depends on in this life for a lot of people.
You know, when people are depressed or when people are
not comfortable with something, when they're sad about something,
when they have a grief about something, when they find the a
lot of stress. What is that? Where is that stress coming from? It's
because there's instability. Something different has happened,
something not what they wanted. Why else would you get it? If
everything's perfect? There's very few people who get stressed by
that. But generally, the stress comes because of difficulty and
change, alteration, unexpected happenings, somewhere surprises.
But should any of that be a surprise? Well, I guess some
things can be a surprise. But when the way to manage this, as any
therapist will tell you, is about
managing through expectation, through understanding what it's
all about why things happen.
And Islamically, we have got
a beautiful understanding our whole faith is based on the rain
on the unseen. And this is all unseen, this is exactly part of
life. This is part of faith. Alladhina Umino. And I believe how
faith is based on the unseen.
And this is all part of the unseen in a sense, because Allah is the
One who plan planning all of this and we don't know. So the first
thing is to just get an understanding that this all
happens from Allah. It's the nature of the world. It's
inevitable, it's gonna happen. But we're going to ask Allah for as
less as possible of that, so that we have more outfits. I don't
think you can escape it entirely calamities. Number two, what he's
telling us now here is a wisdom of why things happen. So Heinola
when you know that there's a teacher of yours. For example, I
pick on the students who I know are very good.
But they've got a little flaw a little issue, so I pick on them
If I go to a masjid to pray a lot and I listened to the Imam and
he's got lots of Tajweed mistakes
I don't have time to because how can you correct so much in a quick
meeting you go to another town another Masjid if it's your local
Imam it's something else but if it's somewhere else you go and
mashallah, you know, he's making so many mistakes
in that Allah who are in a garage, Iran now what are you going to say
to him? You just pray for him?
Because difficult to go into and brother correct your tweet. So we
hope that they will, however, I go to some messages and the Imam
mashallah has good reading. This is making a silly mistake
somewhere on Oversight and something there, I think that
there's worth telling them something. So I, if I get a
chance, I'll tell you, brother, I really enjoy shave, I really
enjoyed your reading. You know, there's just this one or two
things, if you correct that it'd be like leaning flawless, like
white students. That's why we tell our children off. If our children
could just understand, can you imagine we get it? But did we get
it when we were children being told off?
If our children can just know from the age of five and six, that it's
actually for my good. They're telling me, they're not really
against me. They're not just being tight. They're not just being
overly strict. It's actually they weren't good for me that would
suddenly become easy. When on that child. Can you imagine that?
You're like, oh, yeah, hamdulillah No problem, I'll sort it out.
So But even we become adults, and we just don't understand that with
Allah subhanaw taala it's the same thing. We're always children in
front of Allah, like children in front of Allah.
When it comes to children, you know, when they start realizing
it's a bit, you know, then they're like, 20 years old. You know,
hopefully, they'll realize before that
it's the same kind of thing. He's telling us something which we as
children, like children in front of Allah, it would be like our
children would understand the same thing he's saying. So this is what
he's saying. He's saying, he only made the affliction come to you at
the hands of people so that you would not to get too comfortable
and repose with them. But rather, Allah wants to drive you out of
everything, so that nothing will divert you from him, which means
that Allah wants you to go to him. So when you have difficulties from
people, especially from people that you've trusted, that's the
worst ones, what hurts you the most, some enemy who's Okay, I
understand that, at least psychologically, it might be
hurtful. They physically do something to you, they've done you
a monetary harm, a major economical harm, or something of
that nature is going to be hurtful in that sense. But if you're not,
well, what do I expect from that person, at least that doesn't
hurt. But when it happens from your own people who you trusted,
suddenly that hurt to just increases? Oh, he was part of it
as well. That's what leads me like, I just don't know how to
forgive that I just, I just can't get my head around it, they say.
So Allah is saying, Allah, Allah gives us difficulties through
people, sometimes not all the time, don't expect that all your
close friends are gonna suddenly become unfaithful to you. But it
can happen. And that's up to Allah subhanaw taala. Because he doesn't
want you to be comfortable with anyone except him. And if you are
comfortable with anybody, he must be for his reason for his sake. So
it's not like you can't be comfortable with your parents and
with your spouse and children, whoever you can be. But you have
to realize Allah is the one in charge of everything.
So you do it for the sake of Allah subhanaw taala. That's all he's
saying. He's just saying that he's going to make devotees come from
your very own sometimes, because that's his way of doing it. Now,
people are going to react in multiple ways. Some people are
going to cause a huge family feud. Some people are gonna get so
depressed, that they don't even know what to do next. They just
don't know where to go with this.
And that's the difficulty when you know Allah more, you just become
calmer in life. Because it's like you understand how the world
works.
There's two people one knows the teacher that they do get mock
angry, and they get mock inferior ated and they tell them off. So
there's two students, they both made a mistake but one knows that
been with them for a very long time. And the other one doesn't,
oh, one's gonna get really depressed. They might break down
seeing the app and the other ones like please forgive me. I know the
way to deal with this. Like, you know, I don't worry next time,
it'd be fine. What if not, I thought Allah is saying is that
the rule of a human being when he gets too comfortable with anything
of this world? That's bad for it? Because the comforts this world is
temporary so you can't get too comfortable with it.
We can only be comforted
is the next world because that's permanent. So we can't be
comfortable in this world,
too comfortable with it in the sense that you just feel secure,
to secure, and you start to love everything in it too much to take
it into your heart,
then what happens is that that's just going to make it difficult
for you to get to the next world to even focus on it.
Because if you love this world too much, then why would you focus on
the next world? If you love this world, for the sake of the next
world, then that's fine.
I mean, you must love this world. Because if we weren't given a
chance to be here, what would we be doing? What would we get in the
Hereafter, so you can love it for that reason, hamdulillah Allah has
given me this world so that I can build for the hereafter. That's
one way to understand this world. So it's not like you're saying I
hate this world. Just hate to put it in your heart. Because that's
not where it should be. But you need to get by in this world as
well.
So the animal Rouhani
is what the rule needs, which means the world, the world of the
souls, where eventually we all end up going, which is the hereafter,
that's the real world for ourselves, because that's where
they will remain forever. That's where we came from. We came from
Ireland, or Wha, we're gonna go back to another world, this place,
we just here for a short while, so doesn't want us to get comfortable
here.
So it's part of the Hickmott of Allah, the wisdom of Allah
subhanaw taala. And actually his kindness, because he knows the
future. That's why he knows if I let you indulge right now, you're
not going to know anything. You're not going to be prepared. So can
you see how it becomes kindness?
Like, how is that kindness? Well, it's kindness, when you look at
the future,
and we must be people of the future, not just off today.
Because that's never benefited anybody. Why We Should we people
of tomorrow, because that's where we're gonna go.
Well, why are we going to go there? Well, because that's what
Allah has written. And that's where everybody goes, we can't
help it. We're in that system.
So it's actually Allah's look, and his kindness that he's made. He's
letting that happen. But it's only his kindness when he lets that
happen. And we understand this. Because for those people who
shriek and freak out, and get even more depressed than I mean, the
reason that happens, they don't know Allah. That's really the
simple thing. They just don't know Allah.
Or they're not willing to accept it. Most of the time, it's just
Jehovah. I mean, how many people would know this idea?
This is a deep idea how many people would know this, you can
only know this when you love someone and you know they love
them, then you know that everything that comes from that,
beloved, must be for good cause. That means there's an absence of
love for Allah. That's why we don't know. That's why when things
like that happened, we think Allah has just forsaken us.
So that Allah subhanaw taala has kindness
for his Olia for his Willie for his friends, that Allah subhanho
wa taala. Just disturbs things that they may get too attached to,
so that they don't get attached to them. So He disturbs those things.
So they don't you don't feel like you can rely on that. I'll give
you an example. You're looking to buy a house.
Right? You're looking to buy a house. And you know, you put your
emotion in there. Because I mean, why else would you buy a house,
you're not buying houses every day you and especially in London, when
they're expensive. It's a big investment. So you're really going
to figure out what you want. And then after that, you're going to
get emotionally attached, you're going to look at the neighborhood,
you're going to look at the potentials of that house, you're
going to look at all of that. Now, all of that creates emotion. Now
you really put your heart in there. And then suddenly, you lose
it because somebody else bids you over video and you know how far
you're gonna go. Like, you know, you only have a certain amount of
money. So then you feel really, really, really let down. You get
angry at the other person. But there's no What are you going to
do? You don't even know who the other bidder is, you know, maybe
you want to stand outside the household and find out who he is
and beat him up like La hawla wala Quwata illa biLlah you know, what
are you what are you going to do? Are you going to get angry on the
agent, sometimes Subhanallah the agents are playing games, they
take bribes from from, you know, one buyer or whatever it is, and
they'll just make sure that they talk to the owner in a way that
that person will get it because he's going to make the agent is
going to make Subhanallah bribes 5000 pounds in the process or
10,000 part in the process, depending on the price.
Yeah, I mean, I can see you can get angry with all of that, but
it's not worth it.
It's not worth getting angry. Just going to trouble yourself because
you can't do anything.
So the next time you make sure you're the highest buyer
and then what happens is that the owner decides
not to sell. Now you're gonna get angry on the owner. You let us you
put it on the market you've had it on for three months and then you
pull it out afterwards
who you're gonna get angry on?
Is it worth getting it? What are you gonna get out of it wasting
time? You gotta go and find another house. Eventually like,
man, Allah just give me wherever is good. So the next time you're
looking so the next time what happens is that first house you
lost suddenly comes back to you.
Because the guy who overbid you, he eventually didn't buy it. So
the owner comes back to you, even though he let you down the first
time.
So now you're more cautious. You're not going to put your heart
and emotion in it because you've learned a lesson, hopefully.
So now you're like, Okay, I'm gonna leave it all I'm gonna do
every now leading up to Allah does not mean that, yeah, if it comes
up, you know, I'm not gonna do much about it. No, you have to
make an effort. But psychologically, and emotionally,
you're not attached.
Until you get it, well, even then you shouldn't be attached. You
know what I mean? You need to personalize it, you need to make
it yours. But then you don't want to become attached to the dunya
too much. You can enjoy it, that's fine. But you must know that Allah
is giving it to me. So now what you do is you just take it easy.
To be honest, when you're like that you're in a better bargaining
position.
The best bargain is that those who are willing to walk away so even
from that perspective, you're better off and you're like,
whenever Allah gives it to me, and whichever one Allah gives, because
you're doing istikhara now as well properly,
you can do is the harder but you still to it, you know, the first
time he was doing istikhara was still too emotionally attached.
But now No, because you realized after two losses, that that's what
it is, I can't. So let me now just leave it to Allah and Inshallah,
when I do get the right one, it will be the best one.
And you start seeing the wisdoms afterwards. Same thing with cars,
same thing with anything.
Just have to leave it to Allah, but you have to do your best.
Right? A lot of people mistake they must just sit back and do
nothing. No, you have to do your best. You have to make lots of
dua, you have to do everything that the world demands from you,
except haram stuff like don't give bribes. Right.
And Allah will create a way for you eventually, when it's right,
and the thing will be right in sha Allah.
So that's what he's saying, Allah doesn't want you he wants you to
turn to him. That's it, he wants you to turn to him. And then when
you do turn to Him, you just get more anyway. Because Allah gives
great greater things.
So then he actually says that those people get really close to
Allah, they will actually find difficulty coming from their own
people.
I fear that. It's like you want to be close to Allah, but you don't
want to go through difficulty. So that's why Allah give us closest
to you with alphabets,
with well being.
So anyway, when a person starts realizing this, hopefully sooner
than later, his rule is soul will never depend on this world. He
will use this world and everything, but he'll be much more
detached. So we're in the world, but we're detached.
You know, all of these people who are successful in the, the all
they've done is they've detached themselves, but they in the world,
but they've detached themselves right in the heart. So it's in
their hands, they're working in the world, they're doing things in
a world but their heart is detached the heart is for Allah.
So when a person gets really tight, constrained with all of
these things, and like I can't wait, he'll say you're gonna turn
you're gonna turn to Allah subhanaw taala you're gonna turn
to Allah subhanaw taala when that happens so many times you just
will do this for the rest of your life. It won't be just for that
particular thing, it will be for the rest of your life in
everything that you do, you will be focused on Allah
and then you will become very successful about it.
The problem is that if the knifes otherwise stays too satisfied with
the dunya with its glory, and everything else, then it's just
never gonna be able to prepare for the other world prepare to meet
Allah. And that is just difficult. So you know, when only you read
the story of Alia, you read the story of Rasulullah sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam is the same thing. His whole life was like
that. Allah subhanho wa Taala he causes turbulence in everything,
so that you don't become dependent on that thing.
Allah subhanho wa Taala doesn't want anything to distract you from
him.
Because it is absolutely impossible that you witness others
along with Allah. You should only witness Allah subhanaw taala
should only see him behind everything, nothing else.
Do you see others but they all because of Allah, Allah is the One
who pulls every string.
There's no way that you can love Allah and love others
independently. Yes, you can love others for the sake of Allah.
Allah just refuses that you can love anybody along with him
for the sake of themselves yoni. Now the interesting thing is that
once Allah subhanaw taala does the tarbiyah he purifies a person
connects him to himself, then after that the person can be with
everyone and he won't make a difference, but he'll be with
everybody.
That's why it mentioned in one of the author's other books, that
when Allah subhanaw taala makes you suddenly get to this
realization, then what happens is that you actually free yourself
from the slavery to others.
What that means is that generally what happens is that when somebody
does your good deed, a good turn, you feel like you owe them and
that's the nature of the world that you do owe people and Islam
wants you to reciprocate in the right way as well. But the Prophet
sallallahu sallam said this man esta la cama rufen, whoever does
you a good turn, lends you money, feeds you, assist you guide you
consult gives you a consultant, whatever it may be, then for Kathy
who repay him,
reciprocate, do a good turn back to him. For in them talk the rule
like if you've got no way to do that, no ability to do that with
giving him something, giving them something back then further ruler
who then at least make dua for them.
Because what that does is that will at least take your heart away
from this feeling of obligation. So you need to do something with
them. But then do it, do that and get out of it. So that way you
don't feel there's some people I know you give them a gift, they'll
always give you something back. So it's never like, I've got one on
him. Right? That's the best attitude.
shakable hasn't said to such a degree. Now this might be
difficult for a lot of us to understand, but put in this
perspective. He says
flee from better people, good people, people who do good flee
from them even more than you flee from bad people. Like why man, I
want to be with good people, he doesn't mean run away from them,
basically means that be much more careful there because you don't
want to become slaves to goodness, just
because he says that their goodness and the good will afflict
you in your heart. Whereas the other people that evil will
afflict you on your in your body, if that's what they're doing.
And it's worse what you get struck by in the heart if it's the wrong
thing, especially if it's a bad if it's a bad person. And if it's bad
company, then that's really really bad.
Because then it's going to take you to evil. It's not it's a level
beyond this.
And he's saying that enemy which actually connects you to Allah
forces you to turn to Allah subhanaw taala is superior than a
than a friend that will sever you from Allah subhanaw taala
that's what you know, when you have good friends Masha Allah and
they do good for you, thank Allah,
you just have to recognize coming from Allah not from them. Allah is
making them do that. We do need to reciprocate. But at the end of the
day, it's Allah who is doing that. So that way that doesn't become
harmful anymore. So he's not trying to say that don't take any
good favors from anyone that you got to work on, like Ibrahim is
now something
but at least realize that it's coming from Allah subhanho wa
taala, Allah has sent that person sugar to Allah, it's just part of
your sugar process.
It's actually they say that,
when a person really gets serious about connecting to Allah
subhanho, wa taala, initially they're going to have, they're
possibly going to have a lot of difficulties, potentially, they're
gonna have to grapple with a number of issues when they first
get very serious about this, because Allah is purifying them,
he needs to upset them first. You know, when you first start
training, it's much more difficult until you get used to it, then you
know exactly what you're doing. But initially is much more
difficult to start running, you know, to start lifting or whatever
it is that a person is doing. That's that's kind of a similar
idea here.
And we understand this from verse in the Quran in surah baqarah
verse 214, Allah says, was zero hedaya cooler Rasulullah Latina
Aman Omar who Mata Nasir Allah, Allah in the nostril Allah He
Corrib they were shaken.
They were set upon the turbulence until the messenger and those who
believe with him said when is the assistance of Allah gonna come?
This is all part of that. Allah in the Nasir Allah He Corrib that the
victory from Allah the assistance from Allah is very, very close. So
the difficulties Jen
really bring about goodness afterwards. Difficulties are
generally followed by an opening, because night is followed by day.
Winters are followed by spring and summer. Generally what happens is
a period
now you don't want to get into summer, miserable. You want to
enjoy it when it comes. So that's why
some people when they just I just can't believe it when some people
have difficulties, they just start complaining about Allah.
The only answer I have for that is really you need to understand who
Allah is, you have not, then you say, Oh, I might my faith is
shaken. My faith is shaking, or my faith is becoming weak. Well, it's
wants to force you to get to know Allah better. That's our that's
what this world is all about. To get to know Allah subhanho wa
Taala Some have said that, you know, when an enemy does something
to you, that's actually Naziha it's like a whip from Allah. It's
like an advice that Allah has used this enemy to give us. shakable
Hassan says that once I was troubled by somebody, he insulted
me or something like that, and I felt really bad about it.
Like it was really a big affront to me, I felt really bad about it.
I have slept. And in my dream, I see somebody telling me that look,
if you want to be Siddiq, if you want to get to the McCollum of CDT
which we discussed, that's the highest McCollum before you can be
you know before a prophecy you can't become prophet but the
closest you can get to the last highest level which is a kind of
an endless level is sit down at your
absolute truthfulness with Allah if you want to get to that you're
gonna you could have a lot of enemies. You have to just learn to
ignore it all for the sake of Allah subhanaw taala so what we
understand now is that when you look at the lives and you read the
biographies of the great people, you find that a lot of them had
difficulty right. So that means is that is the sunnah to Allah He
fell out. That is Allah sunnah that is Allah's way in this world,
for an entity that is soon Atilla heeta Videla. As Allah says in
surah, 240, you're never going to find the way of Allah to change
the method that Allah using this world is constantly going to be
the same. That's why learning history, reading history is
extremely useful because that's what Allah does. It's just gone
through cycles.
Very useful. Those who don't know history, they're very depressed
today. With the situation that's happening.
Merci Luxa. We actually lost Mr. Luxa. For 90 something years. I
just give a give a lecture about this. And in Oxford yesterday, we
lost AXA itself for 90 something years, 9091 years. We still have
it. It's you know, there's problems there. But we still have
it at least there. We actually lost it. Till Salahuddin Rahim
Allah came and took it back.
So we've had worse than what we're having today. Today's not the
worst, that we're going through that so I'm very optimistic that
things will be better. There's a lot of signs of goodness in the
world of things being better than 50 years ago.
There's some things which are messed up more, but there's a lot
of good stuff. I mean, just take the example of Turkey how messed
up that was 50 years ago. Totally secular. Now look at where it is.
And a number of other places. Same kind of thing. Uzbekistan, look at
where that was 50 years ago, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, all of
these areas. I have hope I've got a lot of hope.
May Allah subhanaw taala make that a reality?
If you look at the prophets, Allah Allah isms life the best example
that we have, we can't be any better than the prophets of Allah,
some like that's impossible. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi salam
look at what he first received at the hands of the Quraysh in
Makkah, of the proclaim the truth, and the Benoit.
After that, he stayed there for 13 years, his muck in life is 13
years of difficulty. I don't know if you ever have a day of comfort
day of calmness in there. There was difficulty after difficulty
after 13 years of it. Then after that the Prophet sallallahu meant
to Madina Munawwara thought that would be people thought that would
be easier. It was easier in a sense, but there was still
difficulty war after war. Now, there were no wars in Makkah. But
now there were battles people coming to attack.
Not just that it wasn't just war and
fighting. There was the enmity that was shown by the other tribes
there. The Yahoo tribes for example.
Betrayal,
other investigations, the monarchy team, the hypocrites, that's
probably worse than than a war than a battle you know, the
constant turbulence, no stability, until finally, Allah subhanho wa
Taala He Allah He went to Allah subhanho wa Taala
likewise after that was his Sahaba same kind of thing
for a while, until eventually Allah subhanaw taala gave them
great glory. But then we still had issues throughout.
We had
Abu Bakr Siddiq or the Allah one they say that he was actually
killed also by poison, when he eventually died, said that there
was a poison that had influenced him. Omar Farooq Rhodiola one
Ameerul Momineen he died by being assassinated by being stabbed
in the federal prayer
with the man or the Allah one was definitely martyred in his home
while performing while praying while reading the Quran.
Ali Radi Allahu anhu, he had four years of extreme difficulty I
Subhan, Allah Subhana Allah all the others had some glorious green
within that time, but guardians was helped to stabilize the
situation. Earlier, the unknown inherited a turbulent situation,
and it just became more turbulent. And finally, he was also killed.
Eventually, his son has an Hussein, they both died, Hussein
was killed as well.
Today, we would have said he was gunned down, like literally, you
know, the way he was, he was martyred.
They played about with his head in SHRM. So he wasn't even dignified
after his death in that sense. Until finally he is killed in Sham
in Syria.
And then eventually, his head is buried in Egypt, in Cairo.
That whole area is called Hussein now because it's a big Masjid
there, that's where he's buried. Now, that's where his head is at
least. Then if you look at a number of other stories, which you
don't have time for inshallah and next one, some of those who are
known to be only Allah like Junaid, Al Baghdadi and number of
others and what happened with them inshallah will recount some of
those stories in the next session. But it wasn't easy. It wasn't it
wasn't easy for everyone. It was difficult Mr. Mohammed even know
humbled. Imam Malik. Number of them, it wasn't easy for them.
Imam Abu Hanifa Rahim Allah finally passed away in, in the
jail in prison.
So there's numerous stories like that.
That was the only thing if there was no hereafter this would be so
miserable. If there was nothing to look for that for all of this,
we're gonna get a reward for hat Showkat and you Shakra
even a thorn you're going to be rewarded for taking the pain of
that that's Islam, even a thorn.
You just going and you get a little you know, scrape. That's a
thorn of today, right? A scrape from a wall. Right? Because you
don't go in plants as much today. Even that you get rewarded for it
in that Allah when Allah Allah, Allah quoting you get reward for
that.
Now imagine if we didn't have that philosophy, that belief and there
was no hereafter imagine how many miserable people there will be in
the world. There's a lot of miserable people in the world. But
at least the Muslims among them Subhan Allah, you know, the, those
in Palestine, those in other poor people, poor places like Rohingya
and that you see the faith, like the difficulty that they're going
through and they still stand up proud, because they really realize
this.
Right? Do we want it that we get difficulty then we realize it.
So then our life may become difficult before it becomes
better.
So imagine anybody who doesn't have that belief system, they're
going to be extremely miserable.
That's why believers are supposed to be
those people who have better lives. Because we know that this
is the temporary life and there's a life to come which is supposed
to be the main life
