Hope in the heart of a person holds great value and provides strength and motivation. The Holy Quran repeatedly emphasizes the importance of hope and divine mercy.
Hope is one of the most essential human feelings, and it is addressed in the Holy Quran as well. In Surah Az-Zumar, verse 53, Allah tells His servants: 'O My servants who have believed, do not despair of the mercy of Allah. Indeed, Allah forgives all sins.' This verse reminds us that hope in divine mercy and forgiveness is one of the fundamental principles of faith. Hope in the heart of a person is like a light guiding them through darkness, empowering and motivating them to face life's challenges. Even in the hardest conditions, the Quran has assured His servants that they should not lose hope. For instance, in Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 286, it is stated: 'Allah does not burden a soul beyond that it can bear.' This verse reassures us that Allah has not forgotten us and will aid us in every situation. Additionally, in Surah Al-Inshirah, verses 5 and 6, Allah says: 'Indeed, with hardship [will be] ease.' Therefore, from the Quran’s perspective, hope in the heart of a human not only has value but is also a requirement of faith, strengthening both spirit and mind. In our daily lives, through hope, we can overcome difficulties and step towards a brighter future. Hence, it is essential always to live with hope and rely on Allah's grace and mercy.
O My servants who have believed, do not despair of the mercy of Allah. Indeed, Allah forgives all sins.
Allah does not burden a soul beyond that it can bear.
Indeed, with hardship [will be] ease.
