Submitters Perspective, June 2014

Honesty as a trait of the righteous leads this issue, with guidance on avoiding white lies and speaking truth without cruelty, drawing on sura 109 and 2:177. Further pieces reflect on Arizona forest fires that killed 19 firefighters as a reminder of Hell, gratitude to God for rain, wind, sun and plants, and the Quran's definition of the greatest triumph as Paradise and closeness to God.
