A positive affirmation is a statement that increases your hope and inner strength. Reading and saying positive affirmations can improve your attitude and actions. Many counselors believe that negative thoughts cause negative feelings. By planting positive thoughts in our minds, we will feel happier, insha’Allah.
Since Ramadan is the month honoring the Quran, here are some Quranic verses with corresponding positive affirmations. I encourage you to state these affirmations to yourself whenever you need an emotional boost. 
1.VERSE: “It is You we worship and You we ask for help” (1:5).

. Allah will help me always.

11. VERSE: “You are sure to be tested through your possessions and persons. You are sure to hear much that is hurtful from those who were given the Scripture before you and from those who associate others with God. If you are steadfast and mindful of God, that is the best course (3:186).”
AFFIRMATION: Tests are a part of life. If I stay patient and remember Allah, everything will be all right.
WHY: Reminding yourself that problems are a normal part of life will help you to calmly accept them and then turn to Allah with patience and hope.

When A Muslim Stands For Salah He Is Worshiping His Lord. In Holy Quran Allah To Us, He Alone To Be Worshiped If You Read اياك نعبد واياك نستعين You Come To Know This Fact.
it is very beutifull surah…
It is considered as the most influential chapter of the Hallowed Volume of God Almighty, as it consists of the almost the complete essence of the Islamic faith, i.e. Believing and Admiring the Exalted One, and asking Him only for gaining rectitude in life.
MashaAllah, Though you shared here is quite impressive and will lead many of our Muslim brothers and sisters toward living a happy and peaceful life. Keeping yourselves positive will boost Your morale and inner strength. This way life will be full of peace and joy. I especially liked the first affirmation “Allah SWT sees the good deeds that I do.” this motivates every one out of us to do good deeds and if everyone believes this to be true, our society will be really a good place to live.
