We're all going to experience the twists and the turns. The bends will be sharp and the bumps will be high. Sometimes we'll come to a dead end and other times we may feel like the road is never ending. In light of all this, let me tell you one thing; no matter what happens that road will come to an end; the light will soon shine at the end of the tunnel. We know this because we believe that this life is but short and temporary and the hereafter is eternal, so nothing in this life will remain forever. Whatever hardship, stress or sorrow you are experiencing right now will one day be replaced with happiness. For Allah says: "Indeed after every hardship is ease". Believe firmly in this. Know that your tears are seen by As-Baseer and your cries within the dark nights are heard by As-Sami. The one and only, the owner of majesty and bounty.
Just recently I have been reflecting upon the power of Du'aa and this emotion of sadness. We as humans will naturally feel sad when something happens to us that we dislike. We may feel sad about our past sins or become filled with anxiety and worry of the future and what it may hold. Wallahi, Du'aa erases such feelings of grief and sorrow. It illuminates hearts if done sincerely. Let me ask you, how do you feel when you share your problems with your friend or someone close to you? How does it feel when they actually appreciate and understand what your saying? It feels as though your burden has been lightened, that your problems are being shared and your able to open up and express your emotions. However, nothing, absolutely nothing is as fulfilling as sharing your problems to your Creator, your Lord. The one who is the Most Great and the Majestic. For He hears all, even the prayer of your silent heart. He knows your deepest and darkest thoughts, emotions and feelings. He will not turn away from you, not will He leave you as long as your calling upon Him. Talk to Allah about your problems. Tell Him. Tell Him how much you want His forgiveness and His pleasure. Ask Him to remove the fear and anxiety from your heart and instead fill it with Imaan, peace and tranquilly. Allah already knows how your feeling, He knows how many tears you've shed and will shed, nevertheless He loves when a servant turns to Him for his needs, for consoling and for peace. Ask your Lord! Du'aa is a Muslims superpower. It's the weapon of a believer. Through this does a believe draw closer to His Lord. He humbles himself whilst His heart filled with awe. His eyes shed tears as He asks His Lord and turns to Him seeking His pleasure and happiness.
Never feel your alone in your hardships. Or ever feel that something you want is impossible for you to get or achieve. For Allah says "Be! And it is. don't lose hope in his generosity. know that He is always there for you. know that this life is put a passing enjoyment. know that as soon as you step foot into Janmah - all bad memories, all sadness and grief will die. Happiness will fill your life forever..take the pain now, for it'll all be worth it in the end.
