Question:
Salaam,
For a while my height and body has been making me very self-conscious. I have been wanting to grow more and the more I want it the more I feel detemined but because of this I feel sometimes abit depressed and upset about it, I wanted to know if you can give me a dua to maybe support my health and wellbeing and hopefully I will feel more confident and patient, and insha-Allah one day I will grow, so if you know of any that could help my situation can you please tell me? Jazak-Allah.
Answer:
Audhu billahi min ash-shaytan ir-rajim
Bismi-llāhi r-raḥmāni r-raḥīm:
Wa `alaykumu s-salāmu wa rahmatu l-lāhi wa barakātuh,
You may follow Mawlana Shaykh Hisham’s advice:
“Don’t let Shaytan whisper to you as he whispered to Sayyidina Adam (as), but say ‘alhamdulillah’ that Allah gave you ears to hear, eyes to see, feet to walk, hands that are nice, mouth to taste and talk and body that can do all kinds of things.”
Try insh Allah to recite 100 times daily “Hasbuna Allah wa ni’ma al Wakil” and also salawat on Prophet (ṣall Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) as much as you can.
And Allah knows best.
Wissam
