(Happiness: Now and Forever*)
Absolutely, God’s allies have nothing to fear, nor will they grieve.
أَلا إِنَّ أَولِياءَ اللَّهِ لا خَوفٌ عَلَيهِم وَلا هُم يَحزَنونَ
alaa innaa awliyaaa’al laahi laa khawfun ‘alaihim wa laa hum yahzanoon
*10:62-64 Most people think that they have to wait until the Day of Resurrection before they receive their rewards for righteousness, or the retribution for wickedness. But the Quran repeatedly assures the believers that they are guaranteed perfect happiness here in this world, now and forever. At the end of their interim here, they go directly to Paradise (see Appendix 17).
