In Islam, inner peace is deeply connected to faith, submission to Allah, and maintaining a balanced life.
The faith teaches that true peace is not dependent on external circumstances but on the serenity of the heart, which comes from trusting Allah’s wisdom and being content with His decrees.
The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said : "Verily, in the body, there is a piece of flesh; if it is sound, the entire body will be sound, and if it is corrupt, the entire body will be corrupt; verily, that is the heart." [Sahih Muslim - 1599] https://hadeethenc.com/en/browse/hadith/43
Acts of worship such as prayer (Salah), remembrance of Allah (Dhikr), and reflection on the Quran soothe the heart and instill tranquility in the mind. Allah, the Almighty, says: "those who believe and whose hearts find tranquility in the remembrance of Allah, for indeed in the remembrance of Allah do hearts find tranquility. "(Quran 13:28)
Islam teaches that, even in times of hardship, peace can be found through patience and gratitude, as believers are reminded that every trial is a means of spiritual growth.
The path to inner peace is also paved with kindness, charity, and efforts to seek harmony with others, fostering an environment of mutual respect and understanding.
Islam guides its followers to a state of peaceful submission to Allah’s will, which brings serenity to the soul.
