This is the one solution to deal with all problems

Life does not always run as we want or what we have planned. Sometimes life is easy, but at other times so difficult. We feel that problems and difficulties come upon our lives. Examples of the problems are such as poverty, disease, or other. If you are experiencing any of life's problems then remember Surah At-Talaq: 2-3 (65:2-3) the following:


Translation:
And when they have [nearly] fulfilled their term, either retain them according to acceptable terms or part with them according to acceptable terms. And bring to witness two just men from among you and establish the testimony for [the acceptance of] Allah. That is instructed to whoever should believe in Allah and the Last day. And whoever fears Allah - He will make for him a way out. And will provide for him from where he does not expect. And whoever relies upon Allah - then He is sufficient for him. Indeed, Allah will accomplish His purpose. Allah has already set for everything a [decreed] extent.

Explanation:

The beginning of the second verse of Ath-Thalaaq discusses reconciliation and divorce procedures.

Word of Allah Ta’ala, “And whoever fears Allah - He will make for him a way out. And will provide for him from where he does not expect.” That is, he who fear Allah in all His commands and stay away from all of His prohibitions, then He will make for him a way out and gave him the good luck of direction unexpectedly. Namely, from the direction that was never suspected by him. [1]

Imam Ahmad narrated from Abu Dharr who said: the Prophet Sallallaahu ‘alaihi Wassalam ever read this verse, ‘And whoever fears Allah - He will make for him a way out. And will provide for him from where he does not expect, ‘till the finish, and then he said: “O Abu Dharr, if only mankind as a whole hold fast to it (the verse), surely it is enough for them.” [1]

Ibn Abu Hatim narrated from Syittir ibn Syakkal who said that he had heard Abdullah ibn Mas’ud said that the verse contains the greatest way out in the Quran is the word of Allah Ta’ala, “And whoever fears Allah - He will make for him a way out.” [2]

Islam is so beautiful. Typically, if we ask for advice to the experts, they will just say do it like this or like that without asking us for fear of Allah Ta'ala. However, in Islam, when we are in trouble, we are actually commanded to fear Allah Ta'ala. Piety means running his command and also away from prohibitions. Piety to God has other benefits that make us think clearly in dealing problems. It also means, in dealing the difficulties we are commanded to depend on Allah Ta'ala whereas effort/endeavor that we do is just an intermediary.

Tips from me: stay away from sin and multiply good deeds and worship.

Wallaahua’lam.
