English book, p. 31
By Maulana Wahiduddin Khan
IMAN: Belief in God Then comes his daily life–his behaviour and dealings with others are moulded according to the virtues upheld by Islam. In short, both internally and externally he becomes an obedient person. A human being is created by God, so the right attitude for the believer is to live in submission to God in this world. In Islam, the right way of life is to live in conformity with the will of the Lord. The other kind of life is one which is lived independently of God’s awareness and marked by arrogance. IMAN Belief in God Belief in God For a believer, faith becomes a source of limitless trust in God. Faith transforms his whole personality. His entire life becomes oriented towards the Hereafter. T he reality or essence of faith is discovery of God. When a person becomes aware of God’s existence and apprehends divine realities, that is true faith. Such a discovery is no simple matter. God is the Creator and Lord of all things, He is the One who awards punishment and no one can escape His grasp.
