In this exploration, we delve into the Quran and the Hadith verses, unraveling the intricate tapestry of practices that lead to a tranquil mind.
3. Patience and Trust in Allah:
The Quran beckons us to seek solace through patience and prayer.
Allah says in the Quran:
يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ ٱسْتَعِينُوا۟ بِٱلصَّبْرِ وَٱلصَّلَوٰةِ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ مَعَ ٱلصَّـٰبِرِينَ ١٥٣
"O you who have believed, seek help through patience and prayer. Indeed, Allah is with the patient."
[Surah Al Baqarah:Ayat 153]
Patience, an art of enduring grace, coupled with unwavering trust in Allah's divine plan, emerges as a cornerstone for inner peace. In moments of trials and tribulations, understanding that challenges are not arbitrary but part of a meticulous plan, fosters a serene acceptance that softens the edges of adversity.
“A servant is not provided with anything better and vaster than patience”.
