The best way to solve problems is to supplicate frequently and seek refuge with Allah Almighty, while firmly believing in divine decree, both good and bad, and not despairing of Allah's mercy. For supplication (du'a) is the essence of worship. Among the well-known supplications is: "O Allah, I ask You for guidance, piety, chastity, and self-sufficiency." It is also recommended to supplicate in the last third of the night. Do not despair of the answer to your supplication, and do not hasten it, for Allah does not let your supplication go to waste.

There is no religious impediment for a woman to offer herself for marriage to a righteous man, or for her guardian to offer his daughter to a righteous man.

Suicide is not a solution to problems; rather, it is a transition from the misery of this world to an even greater misery in the Hereafter. Whoever kills himself by any means will be tormented by it in the fire of Hell, abiding therein eternally.
