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:

 Do not despair of God’s mercy because what happened in the past. You can start again. You can change the future. Think about Joseph and his brother. They betrayed him. They made a mistake. However, Jacob told them, “Go, my sons, and look for Joseph and his brother, and do not despair of God’s mercy. Indeed no one despairs of God’s mercy except the faithless lot.” (Qur’an; 12:87) At last they found him and Joseph forgave them.

 Every time you can start again. Those who repent, attain faith, and act righteously, for such, God will replace their misdeeds with good deeds, and God is all-forgiving, all-merciful. (Qur’an; 25:70)

 Shake off the disappointment. Say, “I know what is in my future is greater than what is in my past, so I am pressing forward in life. Get your hopes up. Maybe what happen to you in past was good for you. Know that perhaps you may hate something while it is good for you, and perhaps you may love something while it is bad for you; God knows while you do not know. (Qur’an; 2:216) God has better plan for new season of your life. So, be surrender and submit to the Lord of the worlds like Abraham who when his Lord said to him, “Submit”, he said, “I submit to the Lord of all the worlds.” (Qur’an; 2:131)

 A much better approach is to take that loss and saw it as a seed. Say, “I do not know why this was taken away but I am not going to let anyone steal from me.” Do not have Victim mentality. It might be difficult but know that your Lord is still on the throne. There are incredible opportunities in front of you. The rest of your life will be the best of your life. So be patient and hopeful and with trust in God move forward. Put your trust in God; God suffices as trustee. (Qur’an; 65:3)
