Dependent Upon His Quality

Peace, one and all…

‘And if God touches you with some hurt or loss, then there is none who can remove it save Him; and if He intends for you some good…’ (Quran 10:107)

In commenting on this verse Imam Ja`far al-Sadiq (as) said:

‘God has made the hurt or loss dependent upon your quality but the intention for good for you dependent upon His quality – in order that your hope be greater than your fear’
