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 messages 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:
Do not underestimate what you have. It may look small and insignificant. Compared to what you are facing, it seems impossible. All the odds are against you, but when God breathes on your life, the odds dramatically change. You and God are a majority. God can open doors that should have never opened. God can take you beyond where your talent and your education, says you should go. God can make a way even when you do not see a way. With Him are the keys and treasures of the Unseen; no one knows them except Him. (Qur’an; 6:59)
It is not enough to just have faith in God. That is important, but you should have faith in what Almighty God have given you. You are not lacking. You were not shortchanged. You are not at a disadvantage. The creator of the universe is breathing on your life. He is breathing on your health, finances, marriage and …. If you will be confident in what Almighty God has given you He can take what looks like little and turn it into much.
Be like those, to whom the people said, “All the people have gathered against you; so fear them.” However, that only increased them in faith, and they said, “God is sufficient for us, and He is an excellent trustee.” (Qur’an; 3:173) With God’s help, you can do your duty. Do not say, “I cannot do this, it is too difficult.” No, God would not have given you this duty if you were not able to do that. God does not task any soul beyond its capacity. (Qur’an; 2:286) When God give you this job, gave you the authority to do that with a good attitude. So, just think about your duty. He Almighty says, “I give you just a single advice: that you rise up for God’s sake, in twos, or individually.” (Qur’an; 34:46)
If you trust Almighty God and try to do your duty and be patient, He will help you, as He did before. God would reinforce you with three thousand of the Angels sent down? Indeed, if you are patient and are righteous and they come and attack you, He will reinforce you with five thousand of the Angels battle trained. (Qur’an; 3:123 -125) If you use what God have given you, he will multiply it. He will multiply your talent, resources, influence. God is not into addition. He is into multiplication. God enhances several fold whomever He wishes, and God is all-bounteous, all-knowing. (Qur’an; 2:261)
You have exactly what you need to fulfill your destiny. Here is a key; it may not be as much as a family member, as much as …, but you are running your race. Do not try to be like somebody else. You may say, “I wish I had their talent, their looks, personality.” No, know that you are unique. You are one of a kind. Nobody has what you have. So say, “I have what I need.”
Do not dismiss what God has given you. It may not be as impressive as somebody else has. Know that what God has given you has been custom made. He specifically gave you your gifts, your talents, your personality. God matched you for your world. He put in you exactly what you need to fulfill his plan for your life. You have what you need for today. If you put your trust in the Lord, you will never lack any good thing. So trust in Him. Be patient, and say, “I entrust my affair to God. Indeed God sees best the servants.” (Qur’an; 40:44)
