Chapter ۱۹: Do not be Among the Despondent

Qur’an says: “Anyone who reverences God, He will create an exit for him and He will provide for him whence he never expected”.

Hawzah News Agency-The Qur’an is the principle source of every Muslim’s faith and practice, but its basic theme is the relationship between God and His creatures and provides guidelines for a just society, proper human conduct and equitable economic principles. For next 100 days we are presenting some short articles on ethical issues that have been written based on the verses of Qur’an.

 Are you ever going through a tough time? Are you sitting on the sidelines of life? God is saying, “Arise and get back in the game.” If a friend betrayed you, do not go through life lonely. Go out and find some new friends. The right people are in your future. If you lost your job, do not sit around complaining. Go out and find another job. When one door closes, God will always open another door. As God says to Abraham, “do not be among the despondent”. (Qur’an; 15:55) If you are facing a health issue, fighting that sickness, do not give up on life and start planning your funeral. Arise from that discouragement.

 When God sees you do your part, He will do His part. He will give you a new life. Qur’an says: “Anyone who reverences God, He will create an exit for him and He will provide for him whence he never expected”. (Qur’an; 65:2-3) That means He will restore your health, give you new opportunities, new relationships. He will give you a new perspective. You will see that even though it is painful, it is not the end. Even though it was unfair, it is not over. There is still life after the sickness, life after the divorce, life after the bad break. A full life is still in front of you. Now, arise and let God’s glory shine all over you and “do not despair of the mercy of God”. (Qur’an; 39:53)

 So choose to rise and put your trust in God. Choose to get back in the game. And know that as almighty God says: “Anyone who puts his trust in God, then He suffices him. God's commands will be done”. (Qur’an; 65:3)
