Prayer Request:
As salaamu alykum O Shaykh…
How can I forget the love of someone who is not in touch anymore with me
but is still in this dunya? Our love was of learning and sharing the
deen. Not the dunya lust kind.
Every book I pick up and every verse I read reminds me, I have become a
better Muslim with that person in my life and Islam has become my main
focus in my life. Please don’t misunderstand me I try and live a normal
life but it hurts so badly ( literal pain ) not knowing how that person
is? not being in contact. It’s been over so many years we have not been
in touch but still the feeling is strong.
Response:
`Alaykum Salam:
Both for yourself and for the one you are missing just make du`a of
well-being in this world and the hereafter such as Rabbana atina
fil-Dunya hasanatan wa fil akhirati hasanatan wa-qina `adhab al-nar.
For yourself also make thisĀ du`a of protection against sadness.
