Profitable Trading

B

elievers, shall I point out to you a profitable course that will save you from a painful doom? Believe in God and His Messenger and strive for His cause with your wealth and your lives. That would be best for you, if you only knew it. He will forgive you your sins and admit you to Gardens, underneath which running streams flow; He will lodge you in pleasant mansions in the Gardens of Eden. That is the supreme triumph. And He will bestow upon you other blessings which you desire: help from God and a speedy victory. Give the good news to the faithful. Believers, be God’s helpers. When Jesus, the son of Mary, said to his disciples: “Who will help me on the way to God?” They replied: “We are God’s helpers.” Then some of the Israelites believed in him while others did not. We helped the believers against their enemies and they triumphed over them. (61:10-14)
