"In the Qur'an, ALLAH teaches us a methodology for healing and strengthening the heart during times of grief and fear: Reflect on all the times of the past that ALLAH has saved you.

When ALLAH first addressed Musa (AS), He reassured him by reminding him of how many times He took care of Musa in the past.

ALLAH said: "And surely, We had shown You favour before, when We inspired your mother with this: 'Put him into a chest, then put it into the river. The river will wash it ashore, and he will be taken bt Pharaoh, an enemy of Mine and his.' And I blessed you with lovability from Me O Moses so that you would be brought up under My watchful Eye." [20:37-39]

When ALLAH reassured Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), ALLAH did the same.
ALLAH said: "Did He not find you as an orphan and then sheltered you? Did He not find you unguided then guided you? And did He not find you needy then satisfied your needs?" [93:6-8]

So when we find ourselves in distress or even falling into despair, we must remember the favors of ALLAH upon us, and all the times He saved us in the past.

It will heal you. It will strengthen you. And it will allow you to stand again."
