when a misfortune comes to them, they say, "We are Allah's and we shall certainly return to Him,''156
156These words are to be uttered merely with the tongue, but we would believe sincerely from the core of our hearts that "We belong to Allah and to none else." Thus, if anything is sacrificed in the way of Allah, if is spent rightly because it has gone to His service to Whom it really belonged."
