A Criterion

Aaoodhoo billahe minashaitan rajeem

Al-Anfal 8:29

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓا إِن تَتَّقُوا ٱللَّهَ يَجْعَل لَّكُمْ فُرْقَانًا وَيُكَفِّرْ عَنكُمْ سَيِّئَاتِكُمْ وَيَغْفِرْ لَكُمْۗ وَٱللَّهُ ذُو ٱلْفَضْلِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ 

O you who have believed, if you fear Allah, He will grant you a criterion and will remove from you your misdeeds and forgive you. And Allah is the possessor of great bounty.

It happens to me that I don't understand what is right or wrong. This ayah reminds me to fear Allah. If I fear Him, He will grant me a criteria. And remove my evil from me and forgive me. But fearing Him in its true right also becomes difficult. At least this ayah reminds me to make an effort to be fearful. And I experienced Allah does provide me a criteria if I make an effort to be fearful. Alhamdolillah

If you fear Allah, He will grant you a criteria

اعوذ بالله من الشيطن الرجيم

Surah 8. Al-Anfal, Verse 29:

يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِن تَتَّقُوا اللَّهَ يَجْعَل لَّكُمْ فُرْقَانًا وَيُكَفِّرْ عَنكُمْ سَيِّئَاتِكُمْ وَيَغْفِرْ لَكُمْ وَاللَّهُ ذُو الْفَضْلِ الْعَظِيمِ

Translation:

O you who believe! If you obey and fear Allah, He will grant you Furqan a criterion [(to judge between right and wrong), or (Makhraj, i.e. making a way for you to get out from every difficulty)], and will expiate for you your sins, and forgive you, and Allah is the Owner of the Great Bounty.
