Distress/taklif

And We will most certainly test you somewhat by means of fear and hunger and certain loss of wealth and lives and fruits. And, (O Beloved,) give glad tidings to those who observe patience. (They are the ones) who, when afflicted with some distress, say: ‘Indeed, to Allah we belong and to Him we shall return.’ It is they upon whom are bestowed successive blessings and mercy from their Lord. And it is they who are the guided ones2/155-157

Surely, a (Glorious) Messenger from amongst yourselves has come to you. Your suffering and distress (becomes) grievously heavy on him (blessings and peace be upon him). (O mankind,) he is ardently desirous of your (betterment and guidance. And) he is most (deeply) clement and merciful to the believers.9/128

Allah does not put under stress any soul more than its endurance 2/286

10/107. And if Allah afflicts you with some distress, then there is none who can remove it but He. And if He intends any good for you, then there is none who can repel His bounty. He bestows His bounty upon whomsoever of His servants He pleases. And He is Most Forgiving, Ever-Merciful.

17/83-84. And when We bestow upon man (some) blessing, he turns away (from gratitude) and escapes, but when some distress comes upon him, he despairs (i.e., he is neither grateful nor patient). Say: ‘Everyone acts according to his own (respective) style and nature, and your Lord knows full well who is best guided to the straight path.

41/51..And when We bestow a favour upon man, he turns his face away and, keeping withdrawn, strides far from Us. And when distress touches him, he entreats with lengthy prayers.

And if a debtor is under financial stress, he should be given respite till he feels at ease to pay. And your forgoing (the loan) is better for you if you know (what significance it has in the sight of Allah to console the poor)…..2/281

Duaa of a distressed(such a person whom none can help but Allah)  person is readily accepted (Hakim)

“When a person who was sick or in some distress they would go to the Prophet (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) who would then place his hand on the area of pain and recite a du’a’ and then blow onto him”[Bukhari; Muslim, Chapter of Tibb]

 “No believer consoles his brother at a time of distress except that Allah (subhanu wa taala) will clothe him ornaments of honor on the Day of Requital.” [ibn Maajah]

When in pain and distress—1.say Ya Allah, ya darr (Allah’s name – Darr (the distresser)) 2.say innaillahi wa innailhirajiun.

Upon coming out of the toilet: Gufranaka – AlHamdu lillaahillazee azhaba annil azaa wa aafaanee. “All praise is due to Allah alone, who has removed the distress from me and given me comfort.”

O our Lord, put not on us (also) the burden that we have not the strength to bear, and overlook (our sins), and forgive us and have mercy on us. You alone are our Master and Helper….’2/286

When I want to talk to allah I say prayers and when I want that he talk to me I recite quran- Hazrath Ali(ra)
