We are struggling. Every thing we do or try to do goes wrong. Hubby started business it was great than at first 1 and half years than flopped. Have alot of loan to pay. I m so stressed. I end up blaming hubby for every thing. Its nt his fault too as he works very hard up to 18 hours or more sometimes. We try to do everything right as per our religion. Dont know where we have done so wrong that Allah is punishing us. Please tell me some dua or surah that we should read.thanks

As Salam Alaikum,
Sister, you have to go through hard times with patience. Life of this world is a prison for the believers.
Don't think that it will always be a calm and smooth ride. Allah Ta'ala tests us in many ways. The best thing to do is to turn to Him and ask for His help and guidance. When we are in difficult times, we should become even closer to Allah.
You should do extra prayers, give charity, make up with any relative that you might've had an argument with, read Quran more, and lastly, make lots of Dua'a to Allah to bring you khiar.
Allah tells the believers, "How one can become worthy of Our promises of success in the world and the Hereafter merely by verbal profession of the Faith, but every claimant to the Faith will have to pass through trials and tribulations so as to furnish proof of The truth of his claim. Our Paradise is not so cheap, nor Our special favors in the world so low-priced, that We should bless you with all these as soon as you proclaim verbal faith in Us. The vial is a pre-requisite for them. You will have to undergo hardships for Our sake, suffer losses of life and property, face dangers, misfortunes and difficulties; you will be tried both with fear and with greed; you will have to sacrifice everything that you hold dear for Our pleasure, and bear every discomfort in Our way. Then only will it become manifest whether your claim to faith in Us was true or false.

I don't think Allah is punishing you, he is testing you. Just have sabar and hope and faith that things will get better, I'm sure they will :)
Re: struggling
Some people just go through more struggles than others.
- Don't compare you situation with anyone else's [not that you are].
- Have faith that Allah will listen to your dua.
- Make sure you fulfill your obligatory prayers.
- Always read Hasbun-Allahu wa Ni'm-al-Wakil when you remember it. It works like a miracle.
- Once you're in the habit of your fardh salat, do add 2 rakaats of salat-ul-hajaat. This is great for specific duas.
Remember that Allah is looking for quality not quantity.

Re: struggling
what defines is how we rise after we fall.
who says it that if your hubby's business is failed then ALLAH SWT is punishing you?
money dont define ALLAH SWT's love for his creation.
so u gotta stick with your hubby and try to be optimistic.
ps. app aik din faka ker lain geen tu mar nahi jayain geen. ALLAH SWT ki zaat per bharosa kerin.
