Hawzah News Agency (Quran, Iran) -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 days we are presenting some short articles on ethical issues that have been written based on the verses of Qur’an.

 When you encounter difficulty and tragedy, instead of complaining and getting frustrated you have to trust that God is right there offering His shelter of peace to your troubled hearts. “He is with you wherever you may be. God is Seer of everything you do”. (Qur’an; 57:4) He has a plan to lift you up out of despair and set you in a place of stability. He has a plan to restore, renew and revive your soul.

 You have to remember, the enemy uses circumstances to get off your eyes of God almighty. “God desires to turn toward you clemently but those who follow their lusts want that you would be diverted into a great diversion and fall into gross waywardness”. (Qur’an; 4:27) The enemy tries to steal your peace and keep you focused on this earthly realm. However, when you lift up your eyes to God, when you hold fast to your profession of faith that is how you stay in victory.

 Friends, when the day of trouble comes, know that God is with you and for you. He is not the one who is against you. Keep your eyes on Him. Trust that He has a plan. Trust that He will make your crooked places straight and your rough places smooth. “Put your trust in God. Indeed God loves those who trust in Him”. (Qur’an; 3:159) Put your hope in God and receive His peace and strength. As He says: “in God's remembrance are the hearts relieved”. (Qur’an; 13:28) So “implore your Lord, sincerely devoted to Him and turn to Him penitently”. (R: Qur’an; 39:8)
