Coping with the Coronavirus, an article by Najwa Awad and Sara Sultan. When the world seems frightening, it's natural to feel overwhelmed and anxious. But it's also a good time to remember that God is more powerful than any disease. Everything is in His hands and He never forsakes us. He has only given us a reminder and an opportunity to, one, put our trust in Him. With tawakkul, a deep trust in God, we feel less anxious and we can refocus and let go of fear. Two, appreciate the things that are truly important, the faith, health and safety of ourselves and our loved ones. Three, gain insight into ourselves. What strengths do we have in a crisis? And what weaknesses do we need to work on? Four, remember and serve the people we forget, like those who were already suffering before the pandemic and those who are hit hardest by it. Five, and to grow spiritually, mentally and emotionally by focusing on the things we can control, recognizing the blessings we already have and practicing gratitude for them. And above all, finding solace in our faith.
