On Resurrection And The Hereafter-The Gate of Generosity and Mercy

SECOND TRUTH

The Gate of Generosity and Mercy,

the Manifestation of the Names of Generous and Merciful

If one looks at the disposition of affairs in this world, one sees that all animate beings —from the weakest to the most powerful— are given some fitting form of sustenance.
