“And keep thy soul content with those who call
on their Lord morning and evening, seeking His
Face; and let not thine eyes pass beyond them,
seeking the pomp and glitter of this Life; no
obey any whose heart We have permitted to
neglect the remembrance of Us, one who follows
his own desires, whose case has gone beyond all
bounds.” (Surat Al-Kahf, verse 28)

Survival Kit 2:
Knowing the Truth of this World
“Set forth to them the similitude of the life of
this world: It is like the rain which we send down
from the skies: the earth's vegetation absorbs it,
but soon it becomes dry stubble, which the winds
do scatter: it is (only) Allah who prevails over all
things” (Surat Al-Kahf, verse 45)

Survival Kit 3:
Humbleness
“Moses said: "Thou wilt find me, if Allah so will,
(truly) patient: nor shall I disobey thee in
aught."” (Surat Al-Kahf, verse 69)

Survival Kit 4:
Sincerity
“Say: "I am but a man like yourselves, (but) the
inspiration has come to me, that your Allah is
one Allah. whoever expects to meet his Lord, let
him work righteousness, and, in the worship of
his Lord, admit no one as partner.” (Surat Al-
Kahf, verse 110)

Survival Kit 5:
Calling to Allah
“And recite (and teach) what has been revealed
to thee of the Book of thy Lord: none can
change His Words, and none wilt thou find as a
refuge other than Him.” (Surat Al-Kahf, verse 27)

Survival Kit 6:
Remembering the HereAfter
“ One Day We shall remove the mountains, and thou wilt see the earth
as a level stretch, and We shall gather them, all together, nor shall We
leave out any one of them.
And they will be marshalled before thy Lord in ranks, (with the
announcement), "Now have ye come to Us (bare) as We created you first:
aye, ye thought We shall not fulfil the appointment made to you to meet
(Us)!":
And the Book (of Deeds) will be placed (before you); and thou wilt see
the sinful in great terror because of what is (recorded) therein; they will
say, "Ah! woe to us! what a Book is this! It leaves out nothing small or
great, but takes account thereof !" They will find all that they did, placed
before them: And not one will thy Lord treat with injustice.”
(Surat Al-Kahf, verses 47-49)
