When you're feeling down..what ayat consoles you?

[Medina83]

Salam brothers and sisters

I just wondered if you could share verses that help you feel better when you feel a bit down and out, or a little depressed

I'm a little bit down and the Quran is so soothing

Here's one that helps me:
Al-Baqarah: whoever rejects evil and believes in Allah hath grasped the most trustworthy hand-hold, that never breaks

[united]

On no soul doth Allah Place a burden greater than it can bear. It gets every good that it earns, and it suffers every ill that it earns.”

Surah Al-Baqarah (2:286)

“So, verily, with every difficulty, there is relief: (repeated) Verily, with every difficulty there is relief.”
Surah Al-Insyirah (94:5-6)

[Al-Zaara]

Selam aleykum,

Aww nice thread mashaAllah. :)


For me it's this one.

"...And I shall not worship that which you are worshipping. Nor will you worship that which I worship... "



Surah Al-Kafiroun (109).

[ummAbdillah]

:salamext:
the Ayahs on my signature! SubhanaAllah!

Say: "O my Servants who have transgressed against their souls! Despair not of the Mercy of Allah: for Allah forgives all sins: for He is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.

And...

"Never will I allow to be lost the work of any of you, male or female"
(al-lmran 195)

"Therefore do thou hold patience, - a patience of beautiful contentment"


in Arabic sounds like:
Fasbir sabran jameela

[chand]

وَمَن يَعْمَلْ سُوءاً أَوْ يَظْلِمْ نَفْسَهُ ثُمَّ يَسْتَغْفِرِ اللّهَ يَجِدِ اللّهَ غَفُوراً رَّحِيماً

4.110 . Yet whoso doeth evil or wrongeth his own soul , then seeketh pardon of Allah , will find Allah Forgiving , Merciful

[Humairah]

Surah Ash-Sharh: "So, verily, with the hardship there is relief. Verily, with the hardship, there is relief." 5-6

[Humairah]

Surah Al Baraqa: Or do you think that you shall enter the Garden of bliss without such (trials) as came to those who passed away before you? 2:214

[Humairah]

Also, i love this saying by the Prophet(s.a.w): "Know that victory comes with patience, relief with distress and ease with hardship.”

[Ebtisweetsam]

Surah Ash-Sharh: "So, verily, with the hardship there is relief. Verily, with the hardship, there is relief." 5-6

This is one i love too- actually the first time i really paid attention to it, was when i had just had a car accident, and was driving home in my smashed car... i was really upset and i heard this surah on a tape as i was asking Allah SWT to ease my situation.

I immediately got out my tafseer book when i got home and looked up the meaning.... and it made me cry so much... i so love that verse!:thumbs_up

[eyeofthestorm]

Alsalamu Alikum Wa Wb

أَمَّن يُجِيبُ الْمُضْطَرَّ إِذَا دَعَاهُ وَيَكْشِفُ السُّوءَ وَيَجْعَلُكُمْ خُلَفَاء الأَرْضِ أَإِلَهٌ مَّعَ اللَّهِ قَلِيلا مَّا تَذَكَّرُونَ

أَمَّن يَهْدِيكُمْ فِي ظُلُمَاتِ الْبَرِّ وَالْبَحْرِ وَمَن يُرْسِلُ الرِّيَاحَ بُشْرًا بَيْنَ يَدَيْ رَحْمَتِهِ أَإِلَهٌ مَّعَ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى اللَّهُ عَمَّا يُشْرِكُونَ

27:62 Nay - who is it that responds to the distressed when he calls out to Him, and who removes the ill [that caused the distress], and has made you inherit the earth? [57] Could there be any divine power besides God? How seldom do you keep this in mind! 27:63 Nay - who is it that guides you in the midst of the deep darkness of land and sea, [58] and sends forth the winds as a glad tiding of His coming grace? [59] Could there be any divine power besides God? Sublimely exalted is God above anything to which men may ascribe a share in His divinity! {An-Naml}

Wassalam

[Humairah]

“And for those who fear Allah, He (ever) prepares
A way out, And He provides for Him from (sources) he
never could imagine. And if Anyone puts his trust In
Allah, sufficient is (Allah) For him. For Allah will
Surely accomplish His purpose: Verily, for all things
has Allah appointed A due proportion.” Surah at-Talaaq 2-3

“And for those who Fear Allah, He will Make their
path easy.” Surah at-Talaaq 4

“That is the Command Of Allah, which He has sent
down to you: And if any fears Allah He will remove
his ills From him, and will enlarge His reward.” Surah at-Talaaq 5

surah duha - the comforting ayahs the prophet (saw) received when he waited for Allah to 'contact' him again and everyone was calling him mad.

Greetings and peace be with you Medina, and thank you for starting this thread.

I have copies these quotes from the forum, and I believe they are understandable to people of all faiths. Sadly at the time I did not copy the name of the person who posted them or were they came from.

I asked for Strength.........
And Allah gave me Difficulties to make me strong.
I asked for Wisdom.........
And Allah gave me Problems to solve.
I asked for Prosperity.........
And Allah gave me Brain and Brawn to work.
I asked for Courage.........
And Allah gave me Danger to overcome.
I asked for Love.........
And Allah gave me Troubled people to help.
I asked for Favours.........
And Allah gave me Opportunities.

I received nothing I wanted
I received everything I needed
My Prayer has been answered.

Pray for Others to Heal Yourself.

The Prophet was always concerned about other people, Muslims and non-Muslims, and would regularly pray for them. Praying for others connects you with them and helps you understand their suffering. This in itself has a healing component to it. The Prophet has said that praying for someone who is not present increases love.

Assalaamu Alaikuum Warahamtul Lahi Wabarakatuh

Be Thankful

Be thankful that you don't already have everything you desire,If you did, what would there be to look forward to?

Be thankful when you don't know something
For it gives you the opportunity to learn.

Be thankful for the difficult times.
During those times you grow.

Be thankful for your limitations
Because they give you opportunities for improvement.

Be thankful for each new challenge
Because it will build your strength and character.

Be thankful for your mistakes
They will teach you valuable lessons.

Be thankful when you're tired and weary
Because it means you've made a difference.

It is easy to be thankful for the good things.
A life of rich fulfillment comes to those who are also thankful for the setbacks.

GRATITUDE can turn a ! negative into a positive.
Find a way to be thankful for your troubles and they can become your blessings.

Blessings and peace be with you,

Eric

9:40 (Asad) If you do not succour the Apostle, [60] then [know that God will do so -just as] God succoured him at the time when those who were bent on denying the truth drove him away, [and he was but] one of two: [61] when these two were [hiding] in the cave, [and] the Apostle said to his companion, "Grieve not: verily, God is with us." [62] And thereupon God bestowed upon him from on high His (gift of] inner peace, [63] and brought utterly low the cause of those who were bent on denying the truth, whereas the cause of God remained supreme: [64] for God is almighty, wise. -

Nice thread.

__________________________________________________ _____________________________________________

Sahih International
Know that the life of this world is but amusement and diversion and adornment and boasting to one another and competition in increase of wealth and children - like the example of a rain whose [resulting] plant growth pleases the tillers; then it dries and you see it turned yellow; then it becomes [scattered] debris. And in the Hereafter is severe punishment and forgiveness from Allah and approval. And what is the worldly life except the enjoyment of delusion.

Race toward forgiveness from your Lord and a Garden whose width is like the width of the heavens and earth, prepared for those who believed in Allah and His messengers. That is the bounty of Allah which He gives to whom He wills, and Allah is the possessor of great bounty.

No disaster strikes upon the earth or among yourselves except that it is in a register before We bring it into being - indeed that, for Allah , is easy -

In order that you not despair over what has eluded you and not exult [in pride] over what He has given you. And Allah does not like everyone self-deluded and boastful. (57 (Al-Hadeed): 20-23)
__________________________________________________ _____________________________________________

And We will surely test you with something of fear and hunger and a loss of wealth and lives and fruits, but give good tidings to the patient,

Who, when disaster strikes them, say, "Indeed we belong to Allah , and indeed to Him we will return."

Those are the ones upon whom are blessings from their Lord and mercy. And it is those who are the [rightly] guided. (2:155-157)
