Of course, God alone possesses the wisdom to know what pain or suffering an individual requires in order that they may turn to Him. He alone has the authority to bestow hardship or sorrow. Although this is a way by which many attain unto faith, it is not a way by which the believer in Christ can lead others to Him. The Christian is not at liberty to cause the least pain or suffering to his fellow man, even if such pain and suffering is inflicted upon him. The Christian's part is rather to show mercy to his fellow man, not to be the cause of grief (74:6)
