Surah 87. Al-Ala, Ayah 8

I.e., towards an ease of the mind and peace of the spirit.

 The Islamic way of life which brings about ease in this life and salvation in the next.

The Path of Islam is simple and easy. It depends on no abstruse mysteries or self-mortifications, but on straight and manly conduct in accordance with the laws of man's nature as implanted in him by Allah (xxx. 30). On the other hand, spiritual perfection may be most difficult, for it involves complete surrender on our part to Allah in all our affairs, thoughts, and desires: but after that surrender Allah's Grace will make our path easy.
