One aspect of each act is our acceptance of it, as what it is seen to be in this world. The other aspect is what results from this act, in terms of the Hereafter.

It is because life in this world is intended to be a testing-ground that the world of the Hereafter remains beyond our reach.

There was once a man who stubbornly refused to believe that it is God who provides for and nourishes His creatures. His friends did the best to make him understand, but with no success. Finally, he decided to silence them by putting this notion to test. Leaving his home early one morning, he went off to a jungle where he perched himself up in a tree. “It is God who nourishes His servants, He will send me my food here too,” he thought.
