Z The Holy Qur'an
QURANIC STORIES: The Story of Job

Job was the epitome of suffering. He was made a messenger by God not only to preach the true faith revolving around the oneness and supremacy of God, but also the demonstrate how a believer should never lose faith despite all the tribulations he might have to go through in its prusuit. He was asked to take in his hand [Bismillah al-rahman al-rahim] 'a bundle of rushes to strike with' and under no circumstances [Bismillah al-rahman al-rahim] 'to go back on the oath' he had taken. He remained steadfast and firm in his commitment to his Creator. He was afflicted with a great deal of pain but he never wavered in his faith in God. Finally, the Lord relieved him and his family of their suffering; they were dying of thirst, when God asked Job to strike the ground and cool water gushed from the earth.
