He who is blessed with a pure nature and possesses the seed of goodness, even in the face of thousands of Satanic temptations and inner passions, hastens towards none other than Allah the Exalted, due to the blessing of the inherent faculty of righteousness, goodness, and purity that lies within him; and it is in God alone that such a one finds pleasure, comfort and satisfaction.

plead the case of the widow.
