Strategy of holy Quran and traditions in reducing human sufferings

Suffering in life is, in itself, a painful experience. However, what makes suffering in life cause extreme crises is its meaninglessness. Thus, a meaningful interpretation of suffering is a prerequisite for the durability of life and the meaning of it. The sufferings of a Muslim are given meaning through the Quran, Sunnah and their teachings. Through a descriptive-analytical approach aims to examine suffering and its meaning in the Quran and traditions. In this research, we have tried to find out what the approach of the Quran and traditions is in reducing human suffering. After reviewing the verses of the Quran and Islamic traditions, we reach the conclusion that the Quran and traditions, by providing particular interpretations and teachings of suffering, have the immense ability of linking the difficult and unfathomable predicament of the meaning of the immense sufferings of humans to the agency of faith in a sacred, spiritual, and intelligent system and make these sufferings meaningful despite their painful appearance.
