Commentary
Whoever believes in the Afterlife and makes its success and prosperity his chief purpose and goal, Allāh makes his heart an abode of contentment, peace and satisfaction. He will not find himself bogged down in so many problems of the world nor get jittery. Moreover, whatever is allotted for him from the world, he will get it anyhow.
