Millions of graces are being bestowed and granted on the humanity from the time of his creation by the Lord Almighty. From the stage of simple cart wheel to the present Nano technology and space age, man has been creative and Lord has bestowed on him innumerable and umpteen Graces and benefits. Man has to be ever eternal grateful and thankful for all the benefits he is reaping in multiple fields. More and more comforts and joys are in store for him. At the same time mankind faces turmoils, sufferings, troubles and pain. For which mankind has to show forbearance and patience. Many millions suffer while millions enjoy all the pleasures and joys. The living of man on this planet appears to be a paradox, a game of chance and chess, dice and of snake and ladder. A feeling of injustice creeps in the mind and man feels desolate, dejected and unhappy. It is during this period of agony, man is commanded by Lord Almighty to exert in patience and be steadfast in his worship to Him with out grouse, grievance and complain for ever and ever. To be submissive and totally surrender than to complain of his woes pain and suffering. Almighty Lord has laid a duty on well to do and fortunate people to show mercy and always be in service of the unfortunates and sufferers. Life for both well to do people and for those who are in suffering and are in pain is a test and examination. The agnostics, atheist and unbelievers find many reasons to complain of injustices but those who are surrendered to the Lord’s will show their patience and work for ever lasting goodness. Their primary concern is faith (iman).Ihsan (gratitude and thankfulness) and Yakeen(certitude). It is the strong reliance (tawakul) on the Lord which is the engine for the ship to sail through the turbulent sea of life; coupled by strong faith (Iman) and Yakeen (certitude) and a feeling that God provides the subsistence at all times and always and totally relies on the Lord with gratitude with out any complains, woes or grievance by total submission to Lord with gratitude (Ihsan) always and for ever. This is the way to achieve “as-sakina’, peace and tranquility to the soul.
