THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Ath-thalaatha. 23rd day of Dhul-Hijjah, 1444AH (Tuesday, 11th July, 2023). *_OUR TOPIC TODAY IS ON DEPRESSION AND SADNESS_*. BismilLah.
When we go through difficult times, when we have a financial loss, when we lose a loved one, when we struck by bad times, it brings out the real humanness in us, and we begin to ask the very questions that are most fundamental to us, “Why are we here?”, “What is the purpose of life”, “why me”, “What happened to all my plans and dreams, etc. We learn the frailty of our humanness. The Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) said, “Look at the ones who are less fortunate than you, not at the ones that are more fortunate than you.”
Hunger attracts food. Hunger is a spiritual experience, it is good for the soul, and food is an experience of the body. In the same way, ease and happiness is good which the body like and is welcomed, and hardships and difficulty are disliked by the body but are very good for the soul. It forces the soul to deal with the difficult questions of life. It helps us to grow as humans, to find and deal with our human frailness. And our human weakness helps us to find our inner-most nature. It reset our system to remind us of our purpose of life.
All we must do is to obey the commands of ALLAH and then pray to HIM, and you will feel so comforted in your heart. Tell ALLAH that you know HE is in control. Cry to ALLAH. We are taught that by turning to ALLAH, we restore ourselves like a dying plant becomes green with water. ALLAH is sufficient for HIS servants so let's rely only on HIM for all our troubles. *_May ALLAH (Azza Wa Jal, The Guide and the Majestic) have MERCY on us and forgive our sins_*. Aameen.
