God did not merely choose the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ upon him peace and blessings, He entrusted him with the highest moral and spiritual standard ever placed upon a human being. And he accepted it. Without flinching. Without negotiating. Without asking for leniency.
“So for the true believer the point is always God; success and failure, happiness and sadness are means not cause for depression or giving up, nor self-righteousness and egoism. One either achieves piety or dies trying; either way one is in the grace of God, Most High. That is what life and Religion are about. That is Tawhid in practice.”
–Shaykh Qays Arthur
