Reading a hardship without blaming yourself for all of it
A verse that names a cause, and another beside it that names pardon.
وَمَآ أَصَـٰبَكُم مِّن مُّصِيبَةٍ فَبِمَا كَسَبَتْ أَيْدِيكُمْ وَيَعْفُوا۟ عَن كَثِيرٍ
Wa mā aṣābakum min muṣībatin fa-bimā kasabat aydīkum wa yaʿfū ʿan kathīr.
“And whatever strikes you of disaster - it is for what your hands have earned; but He pardons much.”
The second clause is easy to skip. Most of it is already pardoned.
