This reality needs to enter the deep crevices of our hearts, that never for a moment, even by mistake, we regard any Ni'mat as \"MY doing!\", \"MY perfection!\", \"My efforts!\", \"MY capability!\" We are insignificant, unworthy & are dependent on His Fadhl (bounties & gifts), Karam (He gives to the undeserving), Rahm (Mercy & Compassion) & Ihsan (Kindness). Continuous reflection & repetition of certain Aayaat can nurture this Haqeeqat (reality). Allah made His Nabi's (S.A.W) Tarbiyyat on this through the Qur'an & in it is our Tarbiyyah.
