The Qur'an gives a direct promise: relief comes with hardship, not only after it. The story of Prophet Yunus, who called on Allah from the darkness of the whale, shows that no situation is beyond rescue.
“For indeed, with hardship [will be] ease. Indeed, with hardship [will be] ease.”— 94:5-6 (Saheeh International)
“And [mention] the man of the fish, when he went off in anger and thought that We would not decree [anything] upon him. And he called out within the darknesses, "There is no deity except You; exalted are You. Indeed, I have been of the wrongdoers." So We responded to him and saved him from the distress. And thus do We save the believers.”— 21:87-88 (Saheeh International)
