As salam! Today I wish to introduce a new series on the blog where every week I will be sharing and discussing some of my favorite verses from the Holy Quran, the book of Allah that I find truly inspiring and motivating and help me get through tough times. The idea is not to categorize the verses based on which one is better, but, instead to share the verses which make me ponder. Every one can have their own favorites, that doesn’t mean the other verses don’t hold any importance. So, don’t get me wrong on this. Alright, today the verse I would like to shed light on is from the Chapeter 30 of the Quran, the chapter with the easiest surahs to memorize and understand. These verses are from Surah – ash – Sharh. I’m talking about the 5th and 6th verse which are translated as following: Do you see the beauty and comfort of these verses? SubhanAllah! It melts my heart. Allah is telling us Himself, to not worry about anything when we are in trouble, because it will pass. And after every hardship there is joy and happiness. Not just once, He repeated the same sentence again with stronger words, in different style. Same thing spoken twice. Do you understand the importance of these verse?!?!? Believe it or not, I have experienced the truth of these verses. There was a time when I was so miserable about my further studies, it seemed like the trouble all around me would kill me, but Alhamdulillah Allah sent help and gifted me in a way I hadn’t dreamt of. The process was slow, it took a lot of patience, like around a year, but the ending was happy. Very happy. Now, whenever I’m feeling down, or facing a problem, I think of these beautiful verses and some uplifting hadeeths. They make my problems seem small and give me hope. Now it’s your turn. What verses do you find motivational during tough times? Share your views in the comments.
