Don't ever lose hope

Assalamu alaikum warahmathullahi wabarakathuhu😊

This is a translation of the previous post which was in Arabic.

When difficult situations or hard times test them, many people give up and lose hope. This happens due to one reason only, in my point of view. What is it? You may ask
The reason is that the belief in Allah isn't strong.

I will list down some solutions to this problem.

First of all, make your belief in Allah strong
How? Belief doesn't increase by itself. No doubt, you have to exert great hardwork. Everyday renew your intentions and say to yourself that you will try to get closer to Allah through obligatory worship and voluntary worship. Be mindful of your prayers and try to read a small part of the Qur'an everyday.

Surround yourself with positive people
Leave all the toxic people who feed your mind with negativity and find positive people.
A point to note: I'm not saying you to abandon them completely because we all have negative thoughts once in a while. If it's in your power to help them be positive then do but in this situation, you yourself have no hope so you will be pulled into depression along with them. It's when they are adamant about their negative thoughts that you have to distance yourself from them.

Surround yourself with people who remember Allah a lot
This good habit of theirs will make an influence on you and it will make you remember Allah and it will give you hope that Allah is, in fact, present and He sees you and hears you every moment.

Lastly, always ponder upon and look at how people overcame their tribulations.

All these ways will make your hope in Allah increase.

Allah mentioned many ayahs about hope in the Qur'an. I will remind you all of two of them 

Say, "O My servants who have transgressed against themselves [by sinning], do not despair of the mercy of Allah . Indeed, Allah forgives all sins. Indeed, it is He who is the Forgiving, the Merciful."

So do not weaken and do not grieve, and you will be superior if you are [true] believers.

Due to the fact that you are Allah .. my heart is full of hope.💗

With that I conclude. Peace
