Law of Success
\r\n Al-Zumar (The Crowds) - Chapter 39: Verse 74 (partial)

\r\n

"… and excellent is the reward of [righteous] workers.\"

\r\n

This world is real. Baseless opinions, superstitions and dreams have no real value in this world. The consequences of our actions are not only visible in the Hereafter but also in this world. God’s law of consequence and reward is one and the same, because, the God of this world and the Hereafter is the One and Only. Therefore, the law that govern the fruits of our labours and that determines our success do not change whether we are in this world or the Hereafter.

\r\nThe Sunan of Allah (Divine Law) that governs our success is eternal and never changing as is evident in numerous verses of the Quran similar to the one above. According to that law, no success has ever been promised to those who are lazy, slackers, idle, neglectful and passive. Their dreams and hopes are never realized.  The Divine Law of consequence and reward does not distinguish between those who believe and those who reject God. Everyone will face the consequences and rewards of his or her actions and deeds. Similarly, those who do nothing cannot expect any reward or success, regardless of the faith tradition they claim to belong to. It is for this reason that believers are always attentive and work tirelessly towards success both in this world and in the Hereafter. Passive and idle efforts clash with the Divine Law of consequence and reward which can only result in total destruction in both worlds.\r\n
