Chapter 77: Be virtuous and beneficial

As Qur’an says: Be virtuous and do good to people. Indeed God loves the virtuous and good doers.

Hawzah News Agency (Qom, Iran) – The Qur’an is the very word of God; a complete record of the exact words revealed by Almighty God through the Archangel Gabriel to His Last Messenger. This holy book is not just a torch of guidance for afterlife, and if you look at it close enough, you would find important massages for living in this life as well.

Here we are going to present some informative Articles about how you can relate on the verses of Qur’an in real life which potentially would lead to solving your personal and social problems and having a very spiritual and beautiful life by accepting God’s commands:

 I wonder what our world would be like if each of us would find somebody to be good to every day. What would our city be like? What would our offices be like? What would our schools be like if we made it a priority to brighten somebody else’s day?

 Qur’an says, “Be virtuous and do good to people. Indeed God loves the virtuous and good doers.” (Qur’an; 2:195) That means you need to be on the lookout. You need to be proactive. You need to have the mindset of, “who can I bless today? For whom can I do a favor?” You cannot just sit back and wait for the need to come to you. You have to go after it. Imam Hussain  (peace be upon him) said, “If People wish you and need you it is the God’s blessings, so do not get tired of it.”

 Sometimes it is easy for you to get so caught up in your own little world that you are focused only on yourselves. “I have got my plans. Do not get me off my schedule. I would love to help you out with some work around your house, but I am sorry, this is football season. I just do not have the time.” However, you were not created to live selfishly. You were created to make a difference in the lives of others. You have not lived today until you have done something for someone that cannot pay you back. Then you will be blessed as Jesus (peace be upon him) said, “God has made me blessed, wherever I may be.” (Qur’an; 19:31) Imam Sadiq (peace be upon him) said about this speech, that it means “God made me beneficial.”
