The Stone Valley

People usually get sad or frustrated when they don't feel appreciated or when they are bullied, rejected, mocked, or falsely accused.

Sometimes people put themselves into stress over small issues by thinking that everything is working against them.

For example: when they are late for an appointment and all traffic lights turn red for them; their device keeps breaking down, but when they finally take it

to get it fixed, it seems to work perfectly; or they stumble on a household item like a screwdriver all the time, but when they actually need it,

it's nowhere to be found.

If someone is struggling with anxiety and mental health issues, they should seek professional help.

'Don't be sad!

' This is the advice that Allah always gives to the Prophet (ﷺ) and other prophets in the Quran.

You can also see the same advice given to Maryam in verse 19:24 and the mother of Musa (A.

S.

) in 28:7.

Verses 97-99 instruct the Prophet (ﷺ) to turn to Allah for support when he feels down.

He always made du'a, asking for Allah's protection from all worries.

It's reported that he used to say, "O Allah!

I seek protection in You from worry and sadness, from weakness and laziness, from acting cowardly and failing to share, from being burdened with debts and overpowered by

others.
