BIOGRAPHY OF THE LIFE OF HIS EMINENCE AYATOLLAH KHAMENEI, LEADER OF THE ISLAMIC REPUBLIC OF IRAN |
live with God
Looking at life as an exam field is completely different from looking at it without considering the exam. Same difference applies to the concept of servitude. When it is said that examination is the basis of Allah’s divine decree (predetermination), it means the hardship he gives us is for the examination, the comfort is too for the examination. Not only is the examination the basis of Allah’s divine decree, your duty is too based on the exam. Religion is also nothing but a scheme for examination. I swear to God if you don’t comprehend the concept of examination or your dominant approach to life isn’t the examination, even the religious teachings (maaref) will mislead you, we will have a distorted image of religious teachings
