3:200. O you who believe! Be patient, exhort patience, maintain good relations with one another and fear Allah, in order that you succeed.¹⁸⁶

186. This is a veritable divine mantra for success. But, alas, there are very few Muslims in today's world with a strong enough Faith to make use of this mantra! The Muslims would not be in the doldrums, they find themselves in, otherwise.

Divine Mantra for Salvation

In the Name of Allah, the Gracious, the Merciful

Excerpts from Chapter 2 of QUR’AANIC STUDIES – A Modern Tafsir, discussing divine advice given to Adam while being banished from Paradise to this earth:

38. We said, “Down you go all from this place! Then whenever Guidance comes to you from Me, all those who follow My Guidance shall have no fear, nor shall they grieve.”

39. “And those who suppress the Truth, and belie Our Verses/signs, those will be dwellers of the Fire, therein to remain, forever! ³⁷”

---

37. And this - the divine message contained in these two Verses 38 and 39 - is what is vitally important and necessary for us now to know and always remember. This is the divine mantra for the ultimate salvation of any individual among mankind. The individual ought to remember that it is only the purely divine - and not any other - guidance that will get him/her the salvation. The individual also ought to remember that if he/she suppresses or in any way whatsoever belies the truth behind any piece of the divine guidance, he/she would certainly be doomed!

Grant us the wisdom to take heed of Your Advice, Allah!
