Sis, let’s be real. You’ve tried everything, ranting to your bestie, binge-watching that Turkish drama, even deep-diving into self-help TikTok. Yet, here you are, still wrestling with that heartbreak, betrayal, or just the general agony of existence. But what if I told you the answer has been sitting on your shelf, gathering dust this whole time? Yep, I’m talking about the Holy Quran, the ultimate guide to letting go of pain and stepping into the peace you deserve.
So, grab your chai, cozy up, and let’s get into six powerful ways the Quran teaches us to release pain and reclaim our joy.
1. Allah Has Your Back, Always (Seriously, Always)
Let’s start with the basics: You’re not alone. That pain you’re holding onto? It’s not yours to carry forever. Allah says:
“Indeed, with hardship comes ease.” (Quran 94:6)
Sis, read that again. WITH hardship comes ease, not after. That means the moment you’re struggling, ease is already on its way. Imagine a two-for-one deal, but instead of fries, you get divine relief! The trick? Trust the process.
2. The Art of “Tawakkul” (A.K.A. Why You Need to Stop Stressing)
If overthinking was a sport, some of us would have Olympic gold medals. But Allah reminds us:
“…And whoever relies upon Allah – then He is sufficient for him.” (Quran 65:3)
Translation? Let go and let Allah handle it. That ex-bestie who ghosted you? That job rejection? That one family member who just won’t quit the drama? Instead of endlessly replaying the pain, hand it over to the One who knows what’s best for you.
3. Forgiveness is Your Superpower (Use It!)
I know, I know. The thought of forgiving that person makes you want to scream into a pillow. But guess what? Holding onto resentment is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to suffer. Allah tells us:
“…And let them pardon and overlook. Would you not like that Allah should forgive you?” (Quran 24:22)
Do yourself a favor, forgive, release, and free yourself. Not for them, but for YOU. Because inner peace is priceless (and totally halal).
4. Dhikr: The Instant Anxiety Detox
Ever felt like your thoughts are running a marathon in your head? Here’s your solution:
“…Verily, in the remembrance of Allah do hearts find rest.” (Quran 13:28)
Dhikr isn’t just a spiritual practice, it’s a mental health game-changer. Next time you’re spiraling, repeat:
- SubhanAllah (Glory be to Allah)
- Alhamdulillah (All praise be to Allah)
- Allahu Akbar (Allah is the Greatest)
Instant calm mode: activated.
5. Dua: Your Personal Hotline to the Divine
Raise your hand if you’ve ever cried on the bathroom floor, feeling like no one understands. (Yep, been there.) But here’s the thing, Allah does. And He’s literally waiting for you to talk to Him:
“Call upon Me; I will respond to you.” (Quran 40:60)
No waiting in line, no awkward small talk, just pure, direct access to the One who can fix what’s broken. So, sis, make that dua. Ugly cry if you need to. Just don’t suffer in silence.
6. Surround Yourself with What Lifts You Up
Let’s be honest: Sometimes, the things keeping us in pain are the very things we refuse to let go of, negative people, toxic habits, social media doom-scrolling. The Quran warns us:
“And be patient over what they say and avoid them with gracious avoidance.” (Quran 73:10)
Translation? Protect your peace at all costs. Swap out negativity for soul-nourishing content, uplifting friendships, and faith-centered guidance.
