Superiority Complex Leads to Evil CONTENTS

DON’T BE DISTRACTED BY WEALTH AND CHILDREN When one receives a divine reminder, one should immediately adopt it willingly, allowing neither wealth nor children to be an obstacle in this path. C hapter 63 of the Quran states: “O believers! Do not let your wealth or your children distract you from remembrance of God. Those who do so will be the losers.” (63:9) Conscience is God’s reminder. Everyone has a conscience which is like the voice of God. This conscience reminds one on all occasions what is truth and what is untruth, what is in accordance with the will of God and what is not. This divine reminder is a warning to a person on all occasions. Yet he still falls into error. Why is this so? The reason is that his excessive love of wealth and children, causes a person to ignore God’s reminder. In spite of knowing the will of God, he follows a path which is at variance with it.
