The word(s) "despair" appears 19 time(s) in 17 verse(s) in Quran in Muhammad Pickthal translation.

(11) Though before that, even before it was sent down upon them, they were in despair.

(12) Say: O My slaves who have been prodigal to their own hurt! despair not of the mercy of Allah, Who forgiveth all sins. Lo! He is the Forgiving, the Merciful.

(13) And He it is Who sendeth down the saving rain after they have despaired, and spreadeth out His mercy. He is the Protecting Friend, the Praiseworthy.

(14) It is not relaxed for them, and they despair therein.

(15) O ye who believe! Be not friendly with a folk with whom Allah is wroth, (a folk) who have despaired of the Hereafter as the disbelievers despair of those who are in the graves.

(16) And for such of your women as despair of menstruation, if ye doubt, their period (of waiting) shall be three months, along with those who have it not. And for those with child, their period shall be till they bring forth their burden. And whosoever keepeth his duty to Allah, He maketh his course easy for him.

(17) But wait thou for thy Lord's decree, and be not like him of the fish, who cried out in despair.
