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:

 Jesus (peace be upon him) met a Samaritan woman at a well and he asked her for something to drink. She was a little surprised because in those days the Jews did not have anything to do with the Samaritans. She said how you could ask me for something to drink. Jesus said if you knew who I am, you would ask of me and I would give you living water. She immediately began to look in the natural. She said, “But sir you do not have anything to draw water with. You do not have any kind of bucket, any kind of pail. How can you give me living water?”

 Many times, you may do the same thing. God Almighty tells you he is going to do something great in your life. Down deep, he puts a dream on the inside that you are going to rise higher. You are going to see our marriage restored. You are going to get healthy again. You feel it so strongly but like her, you start looking at what you do not have, the way you were raised, the obstacles in your path. Before long, you take yourself out of it. However, you served a supernatural God. He can take something that ordinary, and turn it into something that is extraordinary. Did you not know that God possesses the sovereignty of heavens and earth? He punishes whom He wills and He forgives whom He wills; and God is capable of all things. (Qur’an; 5:40) Say, “O God, Possessor of kingship; you grant kingship to whom You please, and revoke kingship from whom You please, and honor whom You please, and humiliate whom You please; in Your hand is goodness. You are capable of all things.” (Qur’an; 3:26)

 All David (peace be upon him) had was a slingshot and five smooth stones. It looked insignificant, ordinary, and nothing special, but God breathed on it. Therefore, he defeated Goliath and became the king of Israel. Qur’an says, “So when Saul set out with the soldiers … they said, “We have no power today against Goliath and his soldiers!” However, the ones who understood that they would meet God said, “How many a small party has overcome a larger party by God’s will! And God is with the patient!” David killed Goliath, and God gave him the kingship and the wisdom and taught him what He wished.” (Qur’an; 2: 249-251)

 All Moses (peace be upon him) had was an ordinary stick, something he found on the ground. Yet when he picked it up, held that rod in the air, the red sea supernatural roads parted. God says, “And what is in your right hand O Moses?” He said, “It is my staff, I lean on it, and I guide my sheep with it, and I have other uses in it.” God said, “Cast it down O Moses.” Therefore, he cast it down, and it became a moving serpent! God said, “Take it and do not be fearful, We will turn it back to its previous form.” (Qur’an; 20: 17-21)
