" When this news reached the Prophet,
he sent some people in pursuit of them. (So they were caught and brought
back to the Prophet ). The Prophet gave his orders in their concern.
So their eyes were branded with pieces of iron and their hands and
legs were cut off and they were left away in Harra till they died
in that state of theirs." (See Hadith 234 Vol 1)
"The Apostle of Allah (pbuh) used to supplicate:
"O Allah, I seek refuge in Thee from my house falling on me, I seek
refuge in Thee from falling into an abyss, I seek refuge in Thee from
drowning burning and decrepitude. I seek refuge in Thee from the devil
harming me at the time of my death, I seek refuge in Thee from dying
in Thy path while retreating, and I seek refuge in Thee from dying
of the sting of a poisonous creature."
( Sunan Abu-Dawud, Book 8, Number 1547, Narrated AbulYusr )
By comparison, Christian belief teaches that God's love brings assurance to those who sincerely trust in Him through faith in Jesus' life:
"Herein is our love made
perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because
as he is, so are we in this world. There is no fear in love; but perfect
love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth
is not made perfect in love. We love him, because he first loved us.
If
a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he
that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God
whom he hath not seen? And this commandment have we from him,
That he who loveth God love his brother also." (John 4:17-21)
