19. 1 Hold firmly to whatever Allah ﷻ reveals, act upon whatever He commands, refrain from whatever He forbids, and do not show any negligence in anything. And endure with patience whatever hardships come in obeying and following the revelation, whatever harm comes from the opponents, and whatever difficulties have to be faced in the path of preaching and inviting—face all of them with steadfastness and perseverance.
19. 2 Because His knowledge is perfect, His power and might are vast, and His mercy is all-encompassing—so who can be a better judge than Him?
