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.
Everyone goes through seasons when feel like they are in a pit. That pit can be a frustration or disappointment or a feeling of discouragement, despair or hopelessness. And maybe you cannot see a way out, but you have got to know that God is still with you, and He will make a way where there seems to be no way. Qur’an says: “And with Him are the keys to the unseen, none know them except Him. …, Say," Who delivers you from the darkness of land and sea? … Say," It is God who delivers you from them and from every agony and all distresses”. (Qur’an; 6:59 – 64)
Remember, God will never waste anything you go through in life. If you will keep the right attitude, He will turn that situation around for your good. Qur’an says: “A person who regards piety in The Path of God, God will make Things easy for him”. (Qur’an; 65:4) It does not matter how you got there, whether it was by your own poor choices or maybe someone else treated you unfairly, God wants to use that situation to do a work in you. He will take that evil and turn it around for your good. You may be uncomfortable at times, but you have got to know that you are growing, and God is building your character.
Now, make the decision to shake off any negative, self-defeating mindsets. Choose to cooperate with God. Trust that He is preparing you for promotion. Know that “to God belong the treasures of the heavens and the earth” (Qur’an; 63:7) and as you keep an attitude of faith, expectancy and thanksgiving, He will lift you up and set you on the solid path of victory He has in store for you.
