1-THE MOST SELFISH ONE LETTER WORD: “I” – AVOID IT!

2-THE MOST SATISFYING TWO-LETTER WORD: “WE” – USE IT!
Say (O Muhammad SAW): “Shall we invoke others besides Allâh (false deities), that can do us neither good nor harm, and shall we turn on our heels after Allâh has guided us (to true Monotheism)? – like one whom the Shayâtin (devils) have made to go astray, confused (wandering) through the earth, his companions calling him to guidance (saying): ‘Come to us.’ ” Say: “Verily, Allâh’s Guidance is the only guidance, and we have been commanded to submit (ourselves) to the Lord of the ‘Alamîn (mankind, jinns and all that exists); And to perform As-Salât (Iqâmat-as-Salât)”, and to be obedient to Allâh and fear Him, and it is He to Whom you shall be gathered. [Surah Al-Anaam 6:71-72]
3-THE MOST POISONOUS THREE-LETTER WORD: “EGO” – KILL IT!
He said: “This has been given to me only because of knowledge I possess.” Did he not know that Allâh had destroyed before him generations, men who were stronger than him in might and greater in the amount (of riches) they had collected. But the Mujrimûn (criminals, disbelievers, polytheists, sinners, etc.) will not be questioned of their sins (because Allâh knows them well, so they will be punished without account). [Surah Al-Qasas 28:78]
4-THE MOST ESSENTIAL TEN-LETTER WORD: “CONFIDENCE” (TRUST IN ALLAH’S GUIDANCE) – TRUST IT!
Verily, those who believe [in the Oneness of Allâh along with the six articles of Faith, i.e. to believe in Allâh, His Angels, His Books, His Messengers, Day of Resurrection, and Al-Qadar (Divine Preordainments) – Islâmic Monotheism], and do deeds of righteousness, their Lord will guide them through their Faith; under them will flow rivers in the Gardens of delight (Paradise). [Surah Yunus 10:9]
Say: “Nothing shall ever happen to us except what Allâh has ordained for us. He is our Maulâ (Lord, Helper and Protector).” And in Allâh let the believers put their trust. [Surah Al-Tawbah 9:51]
5-THE MOST POWERFUL NINE-LETTER WORD : “KNOWLEDGE” (ABOUT ISLAM) – ACQUIRE IT!
By the Qur’ân, full of wisdom (i.e. full of laws, evidences, and proofs).. [Surah Yasin 36:2]
6-THE FASTEST SPREADING SIX-LETTER WORD: “RUMOUR” – IGNORE IT!
O you who believe! Avoid much suspicions, indeed some suspicions are sins. And spy not, neither backbite one another. Would one of you like to eat the flesh of his dead brother? You would hate it (so hate backbiting) . And fear Allâh. Verily, Allâh is the One Who accepts repentance, Most Merciful. [Surah Al-Hujurat 49:12]
7-THE HARDEST WORKING SEVEN-LETTER WORD: “SUCCESS” – ACHIEVE IT!
Men whom neither trade nor sale diverts them from the Remembrance of Allâh (with heart and tongue), nor from performing AsSalât (Iqâmat-as-Salât), nor from giving the Zakât. They fear a Day when hearts and eyes will be overturned (from the horror of the torment of the Day of Resurrection). That Allâh may reward them according to the best of their deeds, and add even more for them out of His Grace. And Allâh provides without measure to whom He wills. [Surah Al-Nur 24:37-38]
If you sincerely follow these things, you got the ‘secret’ of living a better life! In short, an happy and better life can be InShaAllah attained only when you follow the Quran and Sunnah properly. The above listed things are very few, there are many things you can get when you understand the Quran. So, enjoy reading!
