Allah is Predominant Over His Affair

Majority of people when placed in difficult times lose hope in the mercy of Allahu Ta’ala and despair and give up making dua. Remember we mustn’t be fooled by the difficult times in our life that things may get worse and continue to, but we have to remember Allahu Ta’ala is completely in control of our affairs and that with this difficulty there is some ultimate benefit for us both on the day of Judgement and also in this world.

Allahu Ta'ala says in Holy Quran

“…and it may be that you dislike a thing which is good for you and that you like a thing which is bad for you. Allah knows but you do not know.” (2:216)

Since He,Subhanahu wa Ta’ala, has placed us in this difficulty, He, too, will remove us from this difficulty just as in the same way as He did with Yusuf Alayhi Salaam. Had Yusuf Alayhi Salaam not been thrown down the well by his brothers, he would not have become the financial minister of Egypt.  The day he was thrown in the well was the day that his path to blessings was made easy for him.  The blessing of becoming financial minister of Egypt, the blessing of wealth and honour and provision.  The blessing of prophethood and the blessing of Jannah. Yusuf Alayhi Salaam eventually saw the fruits of his patience.  Similarly, we have to have patience because the day our test begins is the day our path to honour, blessings and ease also begins.
