Question:
What is the cure for distress?
Answer:
Recite Surah Al-Fath every morning and evening, reciting the Surah word by word with concentration, and live life with faith in it. Perform the Fajr prayer in congregation, then look towards the sky and remain engaged in the morning remembrances until Ishraq.
Recite «الله ربي لا أشرك به شيئا،».
Recite this supplication frequently morning and evening:
«لا إله إلا الله الحليم العظيم، لا إله إلا هو رب العرش الكريم لا إله إلا الله رب السموات والأرض ورب العرش الكريم»
“There is no god but Allah, the Forbearing, the Great; there is no true deity except Him, the Lord of the Noble Throne. There is no deity except Allah, the Lord of the heavens and the earth and the Noble Throne.”
Always be eager to give charity, keep the company of righteous people, remain consistent in remembrances (adhkar), always seek forgiveness (istighfar), always look towards those who are less blessed than yourself, and praise Allah for His countless blessings.
