meaning based on their opinions and pride, but we should simply submit to the Word, which is the most authoritative and accessible to everyone.

Billions of people have visited this life and left, quietly closing the door behind them. They lived, they felt, and they loved, just like we do. Every single one of them disappeared. If every person on this planet understood this and clearly comprehended it, would we have time for nonsense, unloved work, people alien in spirit, hatred, envy, longing, disbelief, boredom, weakness, cynicism, contempt, or revenge? Would we waste precious months of our lives fulfilling the dreams of others? Would we be tormented by the fear of what the crowd will think of us?

Why conflict, struggle, and accuse each other of wrongness or unrighteousness? This is what the Qur'an and the Bible forbid.

On the edge

Sometimes it can be very hard, incredibly hard. I have been in those situations myself. You have to remember that many people have much more difficult circumstances in life. Everything is known in comparison. I have experienced extremes in my life where I wanted to end everything. There were intentions to end my life. Thank God I pulled through.

Time has passed since that difficult period in my life, and my life has changed dramatically. If I had shown patience in a difficult moment, time would have led me to a beautiful present without suffering and torment. I have had a family, my beloved daughter Diana was born. Other priorities emerged and positive emotions that are like nothing else.

And not so long ago it seemed to me that everything had collapsed, everything was lost and there was a moment of despair when I thought about how to cut short this great gift called life. I am ashamed of my stupidity and weakness. And I thank God for all that I have, for the fact that He did not give up on me and did not let me commit this, one of the most serious sins, I ask God's forgiveness for my weaknesses and sins.

If you live with faith, God will not let you fall in life. If you ask for something and it does not come, do not be upset; on the contrary, you should realize that man does not know what is good and what is bad for him. If something does not come, but you ask for it and want it very much, it means that you have another reward. Just keep on living and believing, and everything will be fine.

Once I was asleep and I saw a dream with a snake near my house trying to hide in a large puddle of water. I tried to catch it with a pitchfork for a long time and with great effort, and in the end, I caught it.

After that dream, my life began to turn black. My family began to collapse, my wife left with my child for no reason. It was as if she was possessed by an evil spirit. Otherwise, I can't explain what she did. And all of this happened at a time when I was in high-risk loans and working around the clock. I was doing 100 percent of what I could do for a better life. At that moment, everything was cut off from me again for I was trying to live according to righteous statutes. I did not expect this, especially since I had not committed any serious sins. I turned the switch in my head for a while, and with a great burden on my soul, I threw myself into all kinds of sins. That's my weakness, I gave up in times of trouble, which is something you should never do. It seemed to me that I was no longer worthy of faith and the Lord's attention. As time passed, things began to get better, but sin cannot be erased-it is there.

I can tell you one thing from my experience. Never despair of the Lord's mercy. Always expect the best from Him. Sincerely recognize your mistake, repent from your heart, and start with a clean slate. When you have drifted away from God, when it seems that there is no way back — stop, remember death, remember, and realize the moment of the end in this world: yours and all the people dear to you. This will make you turn to the right path, for which it is never too late, even if you are a great sinner. Better late than never. It is never too late, even in the hour of death, for sincere repentance to God and recognition of your sins to save your soul.

This is where my weakness, my human imperfection, was revealed. If we all feared the Creator like death, like an incurable disease, there would be no trouble and no misfortune on earth, for "Everything is in the hands of Allah." This is the name of the Lord God, according to the Holy Qur'an. And yet God is infinitely more terrible in His wrath. According to the Holy Scriptures, if there is no doubt in our faith, we will have trials absolutely according to our strength or none at all. And if a person is not faithful enough to God, he will certainly be tested beyond his ability. But the one who really wants to reform himself after such a test, having concluded that his faith and righteousness are insufficient, will start a new path, more righteous, more pure. One should never give up the way of being faithful to God. In trouble as well as in joy, one should give thanks to the Lord. This is what worthy people do, even when it seems that all is lost and you are a complete sinner.

There is a theory that the Earth is a prison for souls. After all, life on earth is difficult for people. From this point of view, if life after
