Addressing the fourth sitting of 9-day lecture series on the Holy Quran (Duroos e Irfan-ul-Quran) being held under the banner of Minhaj-ul-Quran Women League, Wahga Town Lahore, Tahira Firdous, Muslim scholar, said that the humanity was making strenuous efforts for its success in this world and the world hereafter but the Holy Quran had resolved this riddle centuries ago. Allah Almighty said to those who were looking for the right path in the Holy Quran that they should follow the path of those people upon whom Allah showered his blessings. Those who earned His Ire and got de-tracked from the right path should not be followed. Treading the path of the blessed people like holy companions, saints and the Friends of Allah could only guarantee the success in both worlds.

She said that the company of the blessed people would also be of huge benefit in the life hereafter and it would be through their intercession that the sinners would stand forgiven and admitted to paradise. She emphasized the need of joining the company of the righteous and pious people in order to defeat the evil machinations of the Satan.
