it is also Possible

IT IS ALSO POSSIBLE The attribute of forgiveness is reflected in a mother. Just as a mother forgives her child, God Almighty can forgive and reward man. However, this reward is only reserved for those who accord their all to God and become His servants. The son beat his mother with his tiny hands. The mother picked up the son and embraced him. What is the meaning of such conduct? it means that the act of beating was sublimated into an act of love by the mother. she put the wrong action into the ‘good action slot’. she converted a deed worthy of punishment into one worthy of adoration. an incident such as this in every house is one example of how the qualities of the Creator, e.g., forgiveness, are reflected in a mother’s behaviour. it is one of the signs of the almighty, by which he shows how he has distributed his blessings in this world. she did not generate the quality of love in herself; it came from God. so then, if God is the Provider of these qualities, they will be found in perfect form at their source. Man does not know the hidden reality. That is why he is faced with having to bear many losses in this earthly life. his willpower is weak, the superficial feelings overpower him, and he commits grave errors. he has limited resources at his disposal, and he repeatedly succumbs to them, unable to overpower external forces. such adverse circumstances have made man’s life a tragedy in this world.
