Hope and Fear

The Quran mentions that “hope” (raghben) and “fear” (reheben) should co exist in praying ritual. Keeping these two conflicting feelings in balance will save us from despair, on one hand and from being spoiled and arrogant on the other. These two words, used in conjunction and present two divergent feelings, are mentioned 8 times each, in the Quran. Below is an example;

90- ...These were men who vied in good deeds with one another, and prayed to Us with hope and fear…
21. The Prophets, 90

The word	Number of occurrence
