Hawzah News Agency (Qom, Iran) – The Qur’an is the very word of God; a complete record of the exact words revealed by Almighty God through the Archangel Gabriel to His Last Messenger. This holy book is not just a torch of guidance for afterlife, and if you look at it close enough, you would find important massages for living in this life as well.

Here we are going to present some informative Articles about how you can relate on the verses of Qur’an in real life which potentially would lead to solving your personal and social problems and having a very spiritual and beautiful life by accepting God’s commands:

 God Almighty is not far away from you. He came to the people who have doubt before He came to the people that had faith. You may try to put God in a box and tell God who to save, who to bless, who to forgive, and who to heal. Sometimes God will bypass the people with faith to go to the one person that has doubt. It is because God never writes you off. God does not judge you the way people judge. God understands when you make a mistake. He understands when you have doubt.  God is not judging you by that one setback. Get rid of that negative label. Do not let that mistake becomes your identity. Stop seeing yourself as doubting, addicted, and undisciplined; No, you have to turn it around. Start seeing yourself as blessed, free, redeemed, and successful.

Too often, you get your performance mixed up with your identity. In other words, you may have failed but you are not failure. That is what you did that is not who you are. You are the servant of God. You have been hand-picked by the creator of the universe so He asked angels to prostrate before human.  Almighty God says, “So when I have proportioned him and breathed into him of My spirit, then fall down in prostration before him.” (Qur’an; 15:29)

 You may struggle with an addiction but you are not an addict. That is what you did. That is not who you are. You are clean. You are pure. You are free and you are restored. Now do not go around dwelling on your past mistakes. Quit replaying all the times, you have failed; the time, you were in the temptation; the time, you blew the relationship; the time, it did not work out. Just as you have a remote control to change the channel on the television, you have to change the channel in your mind. You will not be free from guilt; you will not enjoy your life, if you are constantly replaying the negative memories of your past. If you want to replay anything, replay your victories. Replay the time that you honored God. Replay the times that you helped someone else in need. That will change your perspective. Some day you would go to new level if you get good at changing the channel in your mind.

 The real question is will you receive Gods mercy? Just turn to your lord and be sure He will accept you. Plead with your Lord for forgiveness then turn to Him penitently. My Lord is indeed all-merciful, all-affectionate. (Qur’an; 11:90) If you turn to Almighty God, He will bless you. So Plead with your Lord for forgiveness and then turn to Him penitently. He will provide you with a good provision for a specified term and grant His grace to every meritorious person. (Qur’an; 11:3) Be sure that Almighty God loves you. Indeed God is most kind and merciful to mankind. (Qur’an; 22:65)  He is waiting for you. So plead with Him for forgiveness then turn to Him penitently. My Lord is indeed rearmost and responsive. (Qur’an; 11:61)
