When youre broken, everything breaks.
Or to be more precise, problems, hardships or negative events, all of them came in one shot, as if an approaching hurricane creating a domino effect.
That is the time when you feel absolutely hopeless. Speechless. Clueless. Ive gone through this, I guess, a lot of times since I am so stubborn and always go against normality. I'll do what I think is the right thing to do, and when it turns out the other way round, I bear the risk.
Well. Youve been given choices and sometimes you made the wrong choice. It doesnt mean that youre a loser, it means that you have the courage to learn from mistake. This is the way when people start to grow and be a better person than before. They learn from mistake.
Oh ya well, back to square one, when you feel hopeless what did you do? Posting on facebook for countless of times stating that youre okay? Let me tell you this..when you are trying to convince yourself or other persons that youre okay, it means you are not okay. It means you need help and support. To have the courage to seek help and support first, you need to admit that you have problem, that you are now going through difficulties and need help.
As a muslim, who is the first person you will rush to? ALLAH.
"O Allah, this is too much, this is beyond my ability, I cant bear this, please make it easy for me.. I beg you o Allah."
Of course Allah knows best. Of course he inflicts us with difficulties because he knows we can bear it. But do we know that? No. We dont know what will happen, so we have to seek the help from Allah -- a source of getting courage and spirit to go through all this and what will be coming ahead.
Verily, in the remembrance of Allah do hearts find rest (Q13:28).
I dont say that everybody will feel this - it depends on how sincere and desperate you are in making the du'a, but as for me, after I have this heart to heart session with ALLAH and all out everything, I feel miraculously peaceful even though I was in the middle of a terrible hurricane. When we feel peace, thats the time when we can think better on how to solve our problems - because our mind is stable and ready.
And of course Allah will help us in a way that fits. He might give us the idea of consulting this people, he might bring positive people around us etc etc. Its our own choice to lower our ego and grab all these chances.
When youre broken, everything breaks? I guess so unless you give your heart and all the damages to Allah to mend it. Everything will be just fine. That is why :
“Amazing is the affair of the believer, verily all of his affair is good and this is not for no one except the believer. If something of good/happiness befalls him he is grateful and that is good for him. If something of harm befalls him he is patient and that is good for him”
(Saheeh Muslim #2999)
Because they have faith in Allah..They have Allah.
Do you?
