Which solitude are you going to choose? The devastating or the strenghtening one?
Man is a social being. At least this is what he thinks, however he was born in solitude and he departs this world in solitude. His soul spends the infinite part of the being in solitude.
Yet we despise loneliness. We look for the company of others, hoping spiritual, physical support, encouragement. If we don’t get it, we collapse into ourselves and become fallen. It is rare if we get what we expect even from our nearest family members.
Questions like these come up in our mind many times: which community, church or mosque should I belong to? Which political party should I join to? In which company or business organization should I look for work? These are the cries of a weak person for help. SOS! My soul needs support! SOS! I have no influence to reach my goal! SOS! I have bankrupted, where should I find livelihood? In case there is a task to be fulfilled or a struggle, effort to be invested, nobody is there for us. On the field of deeds and realizations we are alone no matter how much we suspect the existence of supporters around us. We escape into external issues and we never make ourselves aware that we are not needed to be a king but we are needed as servant. In the church they don’t need us to be high priest, in the political party they don’t need us to be the first secretary and in the company they don’t need us to be the manager. When you realize that all, you crash down and your devastating loneliness will smash you.
However, solitude can be a strength, too. Why are you looking for an external church when you can build one inside yourself? God exists inside you if you just call Him! Maybe you will never find God in a church outside. If you want influence, fill yourself up with essences what make you inevitable. Don’t knock on other’s doors but people have to knock on your door if they want to get some from your skills, knowledge. To improve yourself you need efforts however to invest in yourself is better than to invest in a party where your mind remains empty and you even lose the inputs what you share with them. Regarding your financial bankruptcy there is no recipe what to do. Maybe a rational planning ends up with crisis and maybe an irrational attempt brings success. The only issue what you may accept: if you are stressed and depressed it will not take you out of the difficulties. If you invest the energies wisely what you use to eat and digest yourself, your troubles become milder.
If you recognize the power of loneliness, you can establish a world inside you what is more lasting than losing yourself in vain promises and mysteries of the external world. The external world will support you only if your internal world operates firmly. Then, you are king, pope, secretary of the party, manager in the same time. Who wouldn’t work full-heartedly with you and take some portion from you?God talked to prophets in their solitude and isolation. One night when doors are closed around you, He may find even you if you throw the troublesome issues out of your soul what you carry and you offer Him to fill up the empty place. If you do that, you will feel yourself in good company when you are alone and you will feel strength when you are weak. You’d be better if you get use to Him.

It was We Who created man, and We know what dark suggestions his soul makes to him: for We are nearer to him than (his) jugular vein. Quran 50:16)
As the blood-stream is the vehicle of life and consciousness, the phrase "nearer than the jugular vein" implies that Allah knows more truly the innermost state of our feeling and consciousness than does our own ego.

We have, without doubt, sent down the Message; and We will assuredly guard it (from corruption). (Quran 15:9)
The purity of the text of the Quran through fourteen centuries is a foretaste of the eternal care with which Allah's Truth is guarded through all ages. All corruptions, inventions, and accretions pass away, but Allah's pure and holy Truth will never suffer eclipse even though the whole world mocked at it and were bent on destroying it.
And there is another aspect, too. The text of Quran if enters to your heart it will keep you in safe and comfort. Allah (SWT) guards over the text of Quran and guards those who keep them in their minds and hearts.
