وَ اَمۡرُہُمۡ شُوۡرٰی بَیۡنَہُمۡ.(38:42)
And their system is based on their consultation. (42:38)
عن عبد اللّٰہِ بن عُمَرَ رَضَيْ اللّٰہُ عنهما قال أَخَذَ رَسُوْلَ اللّٰہِ صَلَّي اللّٰہُ عَلَیۡہِ وَسَلَّمَ بِمَنْكِبِي فقال كُنْ في الدُّنْيَا كَأَنَّكَ غَرِيبٌ أو عَابِرُ سَبِيلٍ
‘Abdullah ibn ‘Umar (rta) said: “God’s Messenger (sws) held my shoulder and said: ‘Live in this world as a stranger or as a traveler.’”[1]
The Lord is my light and my salvation; who is then a cause of fear to me? the Lord is the strength of my life; who is a danger to me? (Psalms: 27:1)
