In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Peace be upon you,

[Quran 14:10] Their messengers said, "Do you have doubts about GOD; the Initiator of the heavens and the earth? He invites you only to forgive your sins, and to give you another chance to redeem yourselves." ...

	The Purpose of Our Life*
[Quran 67:2] The One who created death and life for the purpose of distinguishing those among you who would do better.* He is the Almighty, the Forgiving.
*67:2 See the Introduction and Appendix 7 for details of the purpose behind this world.


God, in His mercy, has given us this life as yet another chance to redeem ourselves. What will we do with this chance? Will we believe and lead a righteous life? Or will we get preoccupied and turn away?

Each day of our life is full of choices and chances to grow our souls a little closer to God. We can choose to pray or fast, or choose to let the opportunity go by. We can choose to implore Him when tested or we can get upset and lose our temper. We can appreciate a blessing before us, or we can take it for granted.

What will we do today?
