\n\tBeing in-between fear and hope in regards to your hereafter is important. Having too much hope is detrimental as it is ultimately the choice of Allah Ta’ala whether he chooses to forgive or not and then that leads to a lack of effort in adhering to the commands of Islam and refraining from the prohibitions. Similarly, having too much fear and lack of hope is detrimental because it leads to a depressed state. The best way to overcome one of the extremes is to read literature about the other. You may read some anecdotes from Fazaailul Amaal about Allah Ta’ala’s mercy, inshaaAllah that may help. Also, read the duaa below for anxiety.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Messenger of Allah Sallallahu ‘Alaihi Wa Sallam entered the mosque one day and saw an Ansari (a resident of Madinah) man there by the name of Abu Umamah. The Prophet Sallallahu ‘Alaihi Wa Sallam asked him,<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t‘O Abu Umamah, why are you sitting in the mosque at a time that is not a prayer time?’ He replied: ‘I was forced to do so by sorrow and debt.’ The Messenger of Allah Sallallahu ‘Alaihi Wa Sallam then asked: ‘Shall I teach you a supplication by which Allah will remove your sorrow and pay for you your debts?’ He answered: ‘O yes, Messenger of Allah!’ The Prophet Sallallahu ‘Alaihi Wa Sallam then said: ‘Say every morning and evening:<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n
