Assalamu ala Rasulillah wa Alaa'alihi wa Sahtihi wa Manwala Hamabadi.

Today I wanted to cover some verses in the Quran that should be memorized by us

and some of our scholars have called them verses of optimism,

verses of getting our spirits high,

verses that are going, we're going to use them and recall them during times of difficulty,

times of stress, times of crises, because the one thing that is a part and parcel of our life

is difficulty and struggle. No human being, no human being lives a genna on earth.

You might think a person does when you see him or her with something that you don't have,

but the reality is that every single human being without exception is struggling in some fashion

form or manner. Now I'm not saying it's all the same, no doubt those people that are worried

about bombs dropping on their heads, those people whose families have been split apart,

those people who lost children, all that protect all of us, no doubt that is a level of difficulty,

but nobody is living a genna on earth because this earth is not meant for genna,

this earth is meant for trial and testing and tribulation. So the one who is wealthy is being

tested in his way, the one who is poor is being tested in his way, the one with family is being

tested in his way, the one without family is being tested in his way, every one of us is being

tested, that's what life is about. So there are certain verses that we should memorize and use

so that we can inshallah to ala overcome these struggles. Now I'll mention some of them obviously

as usual, time is limited and then I'll conclude with a verse of optimism on a spiritual note.
