Bismi Llahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim:

(Qur’ān 10:63-64). ‘Al-Ladhīna 'Āmanū Wa Kānū Yattaqūna (63) Lahumu AlBushra Fī Al-Ĥayāati Ad-Dunyā Wa Fī l-‘Ākhirati’, ‘Those who believed and were fearing Allah (63) For them are good tidings in the worldly life and in the Hereafter.’

Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla says there are good tidings both here and hereafter to those who have Iman and fear Allah ﷻ. Those who have Iman fear Allah ﷻ. Those who don’t have Iman don’t fear Allah ﷻ. When they are not afraid of Allah ﷻ, they can do anything.

Therefore, good people are those who have Iman. Because they are afraid of Allah ﷻ, they want everything to be the way Allah ﷻ wants it. Everything they do is for the pleasure of Allah ﷻ. They don’t cause suffering or oppress people. They have conscience. Otherwise, those who have no Iman have no conscience, no manners, nothing. They have no humanity. They are inclined to harm people at every opportunity. And they do so. They oppress others as much as they can by thinking they get benefit out of it.

Those who believe are not like this. Therefore, Allah ﷻ has given them good tidings both here and hereafter. It is a great favor from Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. When it is otherwise, it is the complete opposite. People who are not afraid of Allah ﷻ, who don’t have Iman and who oppress others have nothing but suffering and punishment here and hereafter.

Therefore, we must pay attention to this. We must rely on Allah ﷻ and believe in Allah ﷻ so that everything goes smoothly both here and hereafter. It is the word of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. He ﷻ is the one who does everything. Everything is in His ﷻ Hand. Believe in Him ﷻ so that you attain good tidings and your work goes smoothly here and hereafter. May Allah ﷻ give us all this true Iman. May we be together with believers.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.
