Innalillahi wa inna ilaihi raji’un. Losing my son has been the most painful experience of my life, one that words can hardly describe. Yet in the midst of this pain, my heart finds peace in knowing that Allah’s decree is always perfect, even when I do not understand it.

I pray that Allah SWT forgives me for any shortcomings as a parent, grant me the patience to bear this loss, the strength to live with gratitude and the faith to trust in His divine wisdom and mercy. My dear son, rest in peace in the gardens of Jannah. 💔😭
The Prophet ﷺ said that the children of believers are in Paradise, cared for by Prophet Ibrahim (AS), and that they will wait to welcome their parents into Jannah. I hold onto that promise with hope and longing.

Mental health: We need to talk about this more often, cos alot of people are going through alot, without knowing what they're going through, or knowing how to handle it, or knowing the right person to talk to.
