The Journey to Allah (swt)
I just want to die.. Life is an absurd thing and meaningless. There is nothing to do. Everything is fake, temporary and time-wasting ……
These were my thoughts after an unusual incident of my life. The time when I couldn’t breathe properly, was full of anger, anxiety and depression.. I used to think that no purpose exists of my life. I should finish myself ..
In such critical condition there was no medicine was able to soften my pains only a conversation with Allah SWT did..
“Surely in Allah’s remembrance do the hearts find peace” (13:28)
Sometimes when we do not understand how something was for the best, or when we feel overwhelmed with emotions, it helps to just turn to Allah and talk to Him about your feelings. Cry out to Him and tell Him how you feel.
Yaqub (عَلَيْهِ السَّلَام) said “I only complain of my suffering and my grief to Allah” (Yusuf 12:86)
After studying Quran I came to know about the real fact of my broken heart and all the sufferings of my life Actually Allah SWT wanted to bless me with the most beautiful gift of teachings of Quran that’s why Allah SWT tested me with different situations ..
Part of our belief in Allah, part of our tawakkal (trust) in Him is to have faith in Him being All-Knowing and the Most Wise. Difficulties and trials give us the opportunity to practice this belief. When we are brought to our knees by difficult circumstances, when we see our plans failing and when we are blocked by circumstances beyond our control, it is difficult to see the good in the situation. But when we tell our hearts that there must be some good in this, that Allah (swt) has a plan for us, we set our hearts on the path towards healing.
Allah (swt) loves us . Sometimes, He takes things away from us or puts us through experiences that give us pain. But He always does what is best for us. We may not see it now. We may not see it for years. We may not see it till the next world. But we must have faith that whatever He does is always for the best. There is always some good in a loss, in a trial, in a difficulty, or in a suffering. Trust Allah.
“…It may be that you dislike a thing which is good for you and that you like a thing which is bad for you. Allah knows but you do not know.” 2:216
How many times have you been upset at how things are unraveling at one point only to understand some months or years down the line how everything fell into place like a well-orchestrated plan? How many times do you find yourself looking back over the years and realizing why certain things indeed happened for the best? Sometimes time helps us understand, but at other times, it is difficult even to understand years later why something was for the best. At times like these it helps to remember the trials and difficulties the Prophets and other righteous people in the past have faced and how seemingly unfavorable circumstances have turned out for the best. The Quran is replete with such stories.
Turn to Allah SWT works like a key to several locks as when we turn to Allah SWT especially in young age with Passions, unique things happen at the same time. First of all we feel inner satisfaction have peaceful mind..
The most beautiful thing is that we find the real source of happiness, everlasting love of Allah SWT.. we start to avoid artificial sources of happiness, also termed as sinful behavior ..
We feel a state of twakkul a positive reassurance that whatever happens to us is always for own benefit whether it is spiritual or material..
We start to understand things in more better way with broad vision ..
Sometimes the blessings are not in what He gives but in what He takes away and its really amazing.. Alhamdolilah .
