What measures does a Muslim take to remain guided, especially in an environment that does not promote chastity and is prevalent with poverty, relying on prayer as a weapon?

Among the most important reasons for remaining steadfast in guidance and righteousness are: frequent and sincere supplication (du'a), the companionship of righteous people who assist in good deeds, diligent pursuit of Islamic knowledge, walking the path of righteousness with sincerity, and increasing good deeds.
