But the intention is that tests from Allah form the base in the social atmosphere for upbringing and nourishment. Those who wish good fortune take full advantage of such circumstances and acquire special upbringing in this way. But some people take undue advantage from it and their evil and contemptible hidden qualities come into open and take the shape of evil actions. In technical terms they fail in their tests.

That is they are heroes in talks and not in character. By tests and trials they are exposed. They are shown in their true colors.
