Grieving Hearts

Assalamualikum. For any human it’s easy or say not very difficult to share about their financial problems, health problems. But when it comes to the pain of heart, we hesitate like no other. It’s not easy for us to share this pain that is unseen.

Most of the times, When we do share, we are told that we are complaining too much. Remember to be very careful with words. Someone’s problem be it minor or major may not seem a problem to you at all. But if someone has come to you entrusted, even if you think it’s not a big deal, Don’t shoo them off with harsh words. It’s always the little concerns that become the cloud of sadness.

Remember that a physical wound caused by an arrow or a cut can be healed with time. Can be medicated to avoid further infection. But the wound of the heart caused by words never heals. It gets bitter with time. It makes the heart sour. And this pain not just remains within the heart, it also effects the entire system of human. A kind word or no word won’t harm.

It is evidently agreed by the world that, the time of early morning before dawn, everyone has this phase where they speak their hearts. There are people who are our 3am friends. Don’t we? And who’s the best friend other than ALLAH. Do we realise that this special time is TAHAJJUD. Where ALLAH, The best of healers, The listeners, The one who knows your heart and made you, The one who is the bestest friend among all, is coming to the first heaven, asking if there is anyone to invoke me so I respond to it. Subhanallah ❤️

The king of the kings, the one who can change ur situation within no time is waiting for u to call out. Oh! Grieving Hearts turn to ALLAH.

What more do we want? A very peaceful, secluded time with the creator. Speak to him your heart. He listens like nobody and heals like nobody. He will fix you inch by inch. No matter how far you have been from him. It takes one step only to get back to him.

I know many of us will say how does that work? I can’t tell you how exactly this works but I’m sure it works because that has mended my broken pieces. I won’t say the next day you will feel amazing all good. No. Healing takes time. It happens gradually. But this process does get smoother with ALLAH.

The best companion I had is Qur’an during my difficulties. You and I let the haram get into our hearts which broke us. Now let the permissible (halal) get into the heart and fix, both heart and life.

It is very sweet of our parents and loved ones who protected us to a point that they dint prepare us for the real world. Now that we are facing it, we don’t know how to handle it. Heartbreaks can happen from family, parents, siblings, friends etc. Don’t think you will never deal with a heartbreak. You have to. That’s how the life is. ALLAH mentioned that he will test us. But he also assured us that he won’t be testing us more than what we can take.

We suffer heartbreaks for a longer time, only if, we don’t let go. It’s like your holding on to a rope, it’s cutting your hands, you are bleeding, but you don’t want to leave it because it is with you

Just like a sky has to go, have his own share of Grey’s, blues pinks. We will have our Grey’s blues and pinks too. But that doesn’t mean sun won’t ever rise.

Heartbreaks are not bad at all if you learn a lesson from it. How beautiful is for ALLAH to not let your heart attach to this temporary world. He knows if u fall into the honey trap this world, you will loose your aqirah. So the first step to avoid a heartbreak is to stop hoping perfection from the world and people. And the next is to forgive and let go.

Lastly, to those, whom people look upto to talk. Don’t betray them. Don’t shoo them with rudeness. If they have done wrong, correct them with kindness and love. Anger and hatred creates only gaps and cracks. It does more damage than good.

And for those who are seeking someone to speak to. Run to ALLAH. Spend time with ALLAH by learning understanding Qur’an. Read the sunnah. Know that your a gem. Don’t chain yourself behind one person or a group of people. Speak to someone who is genuinely there for you to listen and advise. Seek medical help if needed.

ALLAH not just wants you to take care of your physical health, he also wants you take care of Emotional and mental health. Don’t ever think it is getting too much on you. Take care of your heart just like you to take care of your studies, work and other things.

A soldier is always placed in the battle, only if, he has the ability to fight. Similarly, your grieving heart is your inner battle. You can get over it. You are a HERO 💟
