Hope in God's mercy is a sign of faith and the Quran emphasizes this point.
In the Holy Quran, hope in God's mercy is considered a sign of faith. Allah emphasizes in various verses that believers should maintain hope in His mercy. For instance, in Surah Az-Zumar, verse 53, He says, 'O My servants who have believed, fear your Lord. For those who do good in this world is good, and the earth of Allah is spacious. Indeed, the patient will be given their reward without account.' This verse signifies that God has promised his servants that no sin is greater than His mercy and that He is always ready to forgive. Moreover, in Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 286, Allah states, 'Allah does not burden a soul beyond that it can bear,' highlighting that even in tough times, He assists His servants and His mercy is always present. This idea is also echoed in Surah Al-Imran, verse 135, which states, 'And let not those who withhold their provisions think that it is good for them; rather, it is worse for them.' Thus, it can be concluded that faith in God's mercy and hope in Him are fundamental principles of belief that not only bring a person closer to God but also bring peace and hope into their lives.
O My servants who have believed, fear your Lord. For those who do good in this world is good, and the earth of Allah is spacious. Indeed, the patient will be given their reward without account.
Allah does not burden a soul beyond that it can bear. It will have [the consequence of] what [good] it has gained, and it will bear [the consequence of] what [evil] it has earned. Our Lord, do not impose blame upon us if we have forgotten or made a mistake. Our Lord, and lay not upon us a burden like that which You laid upon those before us. Our Lord, and burden us not with that which we have no ability to bear. And pardon us; and forgive us; and have mercy upon us. You are our protector, so give us victory over the disbelieving people.
And those who, when disaster strikes them, say, 'Indeed we belong to Allah, and indeed to Him we will return.'
Once upon a time, there was a man named Ahmad who was under the pressure of life's difficulties and various problems. He remembered the verses of the Quran and decided to put more hope in God's mercy. In the following days, he paid close attention to all the good signs occurring in his life and realized that with hope, his life became more beautiful and full of blessings. This experience taught Ahmad that hope in God's mercy is not just a sign of faith but can also be a source of peace and happiness.
