MEANS OF STEADFASTNESS IN ISLAM. 3.Studying the stories of the Prophets and following their examples. -the evidence for this is the ayah : Quran 11 :120 And all that We relate to you ( O Muhammad ) of the news of the Messengers is in order that We may make strong and firm your heart thereby. And in this ( chapter of the Quran ) has come to you the Truth, as well as an admonition and a reminder for the believers. Such ayat were not revealed at the end of the Messenger of Allah ( s.a.w ) for the purpose of mere entertainment and amusement. They were revealed for an important purpose, which was to strengthen the heart of the Prophet ( s.a.w ) and likewise, the hearts of the believers. -think about the meaning of the ayat: Quran 21:68 - 70 They said: Burn him and help your alihah (gods), if you will be doing. We (Allah) said: O Fire! Be you coolness and safety for Ibrahim! And they wanted to harm him, but We made them the worst. Ibn Abbas (ra) said, The last thing Ibrahim said when he was thrown in fire was, Allah is Sufficient for me and He is the best exposer of affairs. Allah ( swt ) tells us about Musa (ra) : Quran 26 : 61-62 And when the two hosts saw each other, the Companions of Musa said, We are sure to be overtaken. Musa said, Nay, verily with me is my Lord. He will guide me. Quran 20:71 Quran 20 : 72
