<strong>ETERNITY</strong> <strong>HAS</strong> <strong>ALREADY</strong> <strong>BEGUN</strong><br />

Muhammad: 37), Allah reveals how human beings will behave with<br />

meanness when He demands their possessions from them.<br />

But when a person learns the real nature of matter, he will understand<br />

that his soul and his possessions already belong to Allah.<br />

If he knows that there is nothing to give or to resist giving, he will<br />

submit himself and all he possesses to Allah before he dies. For sincere<br />

life. He will be very careful about what Allah has commanded and<br />

what He has forbidden. Everyone in society will be filled with love<br />

and respect for one another, and everyone will compete with one<br />

another in the performance of good and noble deeds. People will<br />

change the values according to which they judge others. Material<br />
