111-1. In the world, a testing phase for the people of faith is also that when they act upon religion and faith, those unfamiliar with religion and unaware of faith make them targets of ridicule and blame. There are so many with weak faith who, out of fear of such reproaches, refrain from acting upon many commands of Allah, such as keeping a beard, the issue of hijab, abstaining from Hindu customs in weddings, and so on. Fortunate are those who do not care about any reproach and never deviate from obedience to Allah and His Messenger ﷺ at any occasion; Allah Almighty will grant them the best reward for this on the Day of Judgment and will honor them with success. As is clear from this verse. اللَّھُمَّ ! اَجْعَلْنَامِنْھُمْ.
