THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Al-Khamis. 15th day of Swafar, 1445AH (Thursday, 31st August, 2023). HOW CAN WE FIND PEACE IN OUR HEARTS AND BE SATISFIED IN LIFE?. Bismillah. 

As Muslims ALLAH has blessed us with so many ways to succeed in life and gain Jannat by HIS RAHMAH. Some of the means are:

Increase dhikr (Remembrance of ALLAH ) as ALLAH says;

"who have believed and whose heart have Rest in the remembrance of ALLAH. Verily in the remembrance of ALLAH, do hearts find rest." (Qur'an 13:28). That's by studying the Quran, applying in our way of life and praise ALLAH more through His beautiful attributes. 

Increase in sunnah Salaat after perfection of fard Salaat. As ALLAH says;

"O you who believe, seek help with steadfastness and prayer. Surely ALLAH is with those who are steadfast." (Qur'an 2:153).

Asking forgiveness. ALLAH says;

"And I have said: seek forgiveness from your Lord. Verily HE IS ever forgiving." (Qur'an 71:100).

In addition to above we are also asked to continue to strive and struggle to up-grade ourselves through halaal means. ALLAH says;

" surely ALLAH does not change the condition in which a people are in until they change that which is in themselves." (Qur'an 13:11).

In summary, I conclude that stress results from lack of inner peace due to conflicts within us and leads to external disturbances in our behaviour and health. Inner peace can only be achieved by believing in ALLAH with actions such obeying HIS commands, the All Mighty, and remembering HIM frequently and asking for HIS help and forgiveness in good or bad times. We ask ALLAH to have mercy on us and aid us through our little efforts. Aameen.
