WE BELIEVE that God will never oblige a duty to any one who cannot do it:_

Allah will not charge a soul with a duty that cannot be fulfilled by him.

THE HOLY QURAN _ S2: 286

61 _ THE PHILOSOPHY OF THE PAINFUL ACCIDENTS

WE BELIEVE that the painful accidents that sometimes occur, such as the earthquakes, calamities, and misfortunes, might be that of God's punishment, as it was with the case of the people of LOT:_

When our decree was issued, we turned (THEIR CITIES) upside down, and rained down on them brimstones, hard as baked clay, spread layer on layer.

THE HOLY QURAN _ S11: 82

And about the ungrateful and rebellious people of SABA, GOD says:_

But they turned away (FROM THEIR LORD) and we sent against them the flood from the DAMS.

THE HOLY QURAN _ S34: 16

Some other painful incident are to admonish people and to teach them lessons:_

Mischief has appeared on land and sea by what the hands of MAN have earned, that Allah may give them a taste of some of their deeds, in order that they may return back from evil.

THE HOLY QURAN _ S30: 41

Other pains are what our hands make it and are due to our ignorance and carelessness:_

Whatever good,(O.MAN!) happens to you is from Allah: but whatever evil happens to you; is from yourself.

THE HOLY QURAN _ S4: 79
