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:

 You may have opportunities to get worried, go around upset, frustrated or offended. Somebody is not treating you right and there is fear, hunger or shortage in money and lives in your life. God never promised that you would not have challenges and everything will always go smoothly. He said, “We will surely test you with a measure of fear and hunger and a loss of wealth, lives, and fruits; and give good news to the patient.” (Qur’an; 2:155)

 The storms of life come to every person. However, Almighty God did promise that you could have peace in the midst of the storm. Just because you are in a stressful situation does not mean that you have to get stressed out. Just because the medical report was not good or your plans did not work out, it does not mean that you have to be frustrated. You may be in the storm but the key is: do not let the storm get in you. A boat can be surrounded by water, sailing through a vast ocean, water for miles in every direction but it is not any problem unless the boat starts taking on the water. If the boat starts allowing the ocean in the inside, before long it will sink.

 It is the same principle in life. You can have troubles all around you, at the office; people gossiping and playing politics. However, the good news is just like the boat, you do not have to allow what is on the outside to get in the inside just because you are surrounded by a situation that should be frustrating. Do not let the storm get in you and as Moses said to his people: “Seek help with God, and be patient; for the land is God’s, He will inherit it to whom He pleases of His servants; and the end will be to the righteous.” (Qur’an; 7:128)

 God Almighty wants you to be stable, consistent, not moved by any of these things and not be controlled by your circumstances, up when things are up and down when things go down. When you face an adversity, when you hit a tough time, one of the best thing you can do is simply stay calm and keep your peace. When you are in peace, which is a position of power you are saying with your actions: “God I trust you. I know you are still on the throne. This may be difficult but I know you are fighting my battles.” Be like the ones who the people said (to them): “All the people have gathered against you; so fear them.” That only increased them in faith, and they said, “God is sufficient for us, and He is an excellent trustee.” (Qur’an; 3:173)
