The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from The Koran: take the goods of this lower world and say, 'It will be forgiven
us.' But if the like goods came to them they would take them too!
Was there not taken from them a covenant by the Book, that they should
not say against God aught but the truth? Yet they study therein! But
the abode of the future life is better for those who fear- do ye not
then understand? But those who hold fast by the Book and are steadfast
in prayer- verily, we will not waste the hire of those who do right.
And when we shook the mountain over them, as though it were a
shadow, and they thought it would fall upon them (saying), 'Take ye
what we have given you with firmness, and remember what is therein;
haply ye may fear.'
