What is the secret behind the way that religion bestows peace, stability and inner health?
The existence of Allah, the Hereafter and true faith in Allah bestow happiness and joy on humanity. This is a secret of Allah. Almighty Allah says, “Only in the remembrance of Allah can the heart find peace.” All people who genuinely and sincerely live by the human nature created by Allah are highly balanced, moderate, pleasant, happy and peaceful, as a blessing from Him. They know only too well that greed, a longing for wealth and the things of this world do not make people happy. If living for this world made people happy, if they found peace in this world, why are there almost no happy people around? Why is drug abuse, the use of anti-depressants and psychiatric therapy so high in some Western countries? Why are people so lonely, restless and stressed? Why do newspapers every day carry pages full of stuff about stress-related diseases? It means that, contrary to what some people say, turning away from Allah and religious moral values does not make people happy. Artificial happiness
