How can one get rid of Allah's wrath when facing an increase in problems, such as failing exams or experiencing traffic accidents, despite an increase in faith and consistency in supplication and reading the Quran, which makes one feel rejected and hate doing good deeds?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The abundance of calamities and tribulations is not a sign of Allah's wrath; rather, it may be a sign of His pleasure and His will for good. For when Allah loves a servant, He tests him to expiate his sins. Success in worldly matters is not a sign of Allah's pleasure; rather, the criterion is success in obeying Him. For Allah gives worldly possessions to those He loves and those He does not love, but He does not bestow faith except upon those He loves. Strive to obey Allah, be grateful for His blessings, and be patient in the face of calamities.
