AL MOMENTO ESAURITO

The Pros and Cons of God's Destiny by Prof. Said Louahabi (2012, Trade Paperback)

The Pros and Cons of God's Destiny was written by a native Moroccan who grew up hearing these beautiful tales of ancient Berber tribes. The story in this book is very simple and concise for children, but with a profound religious philosophy of its inhabitants for adults. By nature, Man is very greedy. On the other hand, he or she is afraid of losing all the belongings that God has granted him. Most middle-class families are worried about whether they will be poorer or richer in the future. Ahmed is the spokesman of the lower middle- class families; he came up with a "crazy idea" of trapping God in order to find out about his future. Ahmed made a long journey which taught him that God judges people according to His Own Judgment, and not always according to what sounds logical to human beings. Whoever is grateful, Allah will give him more blessings, but whoever is arrogant and shows ingratitude, His punishment is serious indeed. Between the two extremes of Judgments, Allah is Merciful to those who are really willing to repent forever. The Pros and Cons of God's Destiny is a didactic story because it teaches children, as well as adults, that there are only two kinds of people: The grateful and the ungrateful to Allah, but sometimes there is such a small borderline between Hell and Paradise that no one knows who is really Blessed and who is Not ... Nobody knows how to end up there...
