Allah's Bounty

Satan threatens you with poverty and commands you to commit indecency, while Allah promises you forgiveness and abundance.

2:268The devil promiseth you destitution and enjoineth on you lewdness. But Allah promiseth you forgiveness from Himself with bounty. Allah is All-Embracing, All-knowing.

If Allah afflicts you with hardship, none can remove it except Him. And if He wills good for you, none can prevent His favour. He grants it to whomever He wills among His servants.

10:107If Allah afflicteth thee with some hurt, there is none who can remove it save Him; and if He desireth good for thee, there is none who can repel His bounty. He striketh with it whom He will of his bondmen. He is the Forgiving, the Merciful.

Say, ‘All bounty is in Allah’s hand, He grants it to whomever He wills.'
