How to be successful as God's trustee in managing our affairs as desired by God is given in the Qur'an. Divine Way assures life that is Good and Pure: "Whoever works righteousness, man or woman, and has Faith, verily, to him will We give a new Life (in this world), a life that is good and pure. and We will bestow on such their reward (in the Hereafter) according to the best of their actions" (Qur'an 16:97). How does Divine Way assure life that is good and pure? "The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, 'I was sent only to perfect good character'" (Malik, Muwatta 47.1.8). How does God and His messenger achieved this task of human development? Divine objectives for human development could be highlighted as: The Guidance is- 1). to guide people in 'what is true humanity'; so that they can practice real humanity; - 2). to guide people to unite them into a single Human family; with common human values; and - 3). to develop people by their tests and trials to make their lives beneficial to them. To those who follow the guidance in their lives and communities, God will - 4). Bless those striving for the good of humanity; - 5). Forgive and bless good living to them; and - 6). Reward them for their good deeds.
