Anxiety & worry

Who answers when you are at the end of it

A question the Qur'an asks rather than answers, because the answer is obvious.

أَمَّن يُجِيبُ ٱلْمُضْطَرَّ إِذَا دَعَاهُ وَيَكْشِفُ ٱلسُّوٓءَ وَيَجْعَلُكُمْ خُلَفَآءَ ٱلْأَرْضِ ۗ أَءِلَـٰهٌ مَّعَ ٱللَّهِ ۚ قَلِيلًا مَّا تَذَكَّرُونَ

Am man yujību-l-muḍṭarra idhā daʿāhu wa yakshifu-s-sū'a…

“Is He [not best] who responds to the desperate one when he calls upon Him and removes evil and makes you inheritors of the earth?1 Is there a deity with Allāh? Little do you remember.”

The word muḍṭarr means someone with no options left. The verse describes the state before it describes the answering.
