 200. Y*a* ayyuh*a* alla*th*eena *a*manoo i*s*biroo wa*sa*biroo war*a*bi*t*oo
waittaqoo All*a*ha laAAallakum tufli*h*oona
------------------------------
200. O you who believe! Be patient, exhort patience, maintain good relations
with one another and fear Allah, in order that you succeed.186

 186. This is a veritable divine mantra for success. But, alas, there are
very few Muslims in today's world with a strong enough Faith to make use of
this mantra! The Muslims wouldn't be in the doldrums, they find themselves
in, otherwise.
