126 HAZRAT RA of righteousness, God provides for him whence he cannot conceive of, and becomes his Guardian. The second condition for the study of the Quran is due striving with full devotion to God, whereby God has promised to resolve all difficulties. The method of studying the Quran is that the student should first read it from beginning to end as if it is being revealed to him and every verse is addressed to him. For instance, where mention is made of Adamas and Iblis (Satan), he should check up on himself and enquire from himself whether he is Adam as or Iblis. Where he encounters a difficulty he should note it down. In his second reading, he should include his wife and children. He will find most of the difficulties of his first reading resolved. In his third reading he should include his friends. His fourth reading should be addressed to a wider circle. He should pray constantly for the resolving of his difficulties. 40
