Qualities of the Pious Paperback
Allāh subhanahu wa ta’ala is the primal cause of all things existing. The heavens and the earth; from the angels with their splendour and grandeur of heavenly wings to the creation we see on earth; the winds that drive the clouds to the land that is dead and revives the earth after its death so that we may harvest the crops and fruit; the seas which some are palatable and pleasant to drink whilst others are bitter; the ships that traverse the sea so that man is able to carry his heavy laden goods from one place to another without it being burdensome; in all these things are signs for the existence of a Creator.
Good and evil can never be alike, Allāh subhanahu wa ta’ala mentions the qualities of the pious. A person who strives in the path of Allāh subhanahu wa ta’ala to achieve taqwa can never be in the same category as a person who indulges in sins and has no care or concern for the Ākhirah. Through contemplating and reflecting on Allāh’ssubhanahu wa ta’ala signs, a person should be inspired to return back to their Creator, Who is even more magnificent than His creation.
