beneficial knowledge, righteous deeds,

a comfortable conveyance, and good praise.

along with its associated blessings, such as security from the Greatest Terror,

ease in the reckoning,

it entails the facilitation of its means in this world,
1:37
by avoiding forbidden matters and sins,
1:40
and abandoning doubtful matters and the unlawful."
