Nowadays things are more concerned with our mental state and stream of conscious. Hardships, smaller or bigger, set the mental state of an individual. The main thing is to control our thoughts and remain focused while trying our best to overcome the problems by seeking help from Almighty Allah and following the Islamic guidelines. We believe that an online Quran teacher is not here to just teach the recitation of the Holy Quran but also he or she has the duty of teaching different aspects of life.
The Holy Quran has the solution to every problem and we need to have faith in its teachings and guidelines. This article will throw light on how to deal with hardships in the light of Quran.
Faith
The greatest quality and power of a mentally strong person is the faith. A true Muslim has a strong believe in Allah and this believe is not limited to the existence of oneness of Allah but it also includes the trust that whatever happens in our lives is truly according to Allah’s will.
“No kind of calamity can occur, except by the leave of Allah: and if any one believes in Allah, (Allah) guides his heart (aright): for Allah knows all things.” (At-Taghabun, 64:11)
Allah will never do us any harm without any reason. The hardships we face in life teach us the lessons to live life in a better way. Allah teaches us different aspects of life by putting us in a trial. Take the example of a coach who puts his team in difficult situation to teach them how to get rid of certain problems. Faith allows a true Muslim to believe that he or she will soon get rid of trouble. Online Quran classes have a purpose of building the strong faith in each and every Muslim.
Bearable Hardships
Allah Almighty has created mankind in such a way that human beings adapt to the circumstances easily. The Noble Quran says that Allah never puts somebody in such a trial which he or she cannot face or bear. Allah examines people according to their strength and capacity. It is up to the people to have faith in Allah.
Remember Allah and Pray for Blessings
Forgetfulness is one of the instincts of human being as it is part of our nature. Almighty Allah tells us in the Holy Quran that whenever people are put into some trial they tend to refer to Allah and they start praying for the blessings. But as soon as Allah responds to their prayers, they just forget everything and even they forget to attend to the prayers or follow the right path. So in this sense we can say that hardships are a kind of blessing in disguise because they force us to remember Allah all the time. Hardships just keep us on the right track because under such circumstances we just want to get out of trouble and avoid doing evil deeds.
Life is too short as compared to the life hereafter which is endless. This life will end soon and everybody will depart to the final destination. It is up to the man to do the right deeds in order to reach the heaven because the second destination (Hell) is the place where nobody would like to go even for one second.
Let’s all pray to Allah Almighty to ease our ways and if any hardship hits, we remain steadfast and patient, for Allah Almighty loves those who are patient.
“And Allah loves the patient”. (Aal Imran, 3:146)
And Only Allah Almighty Knows and Guides Best!
