Prayer Request:
A-Salam Alaykum,
I am new to Islam, and I pray to find courage and strength to be a better man in Allah’s eyes as I finalize my divorce. Every day has pain and sadness, I pray for peace in my heart and insight to let go of my ego and for forgiveness.
Answer:
Waalaykumussalam warahmatullah.
Mawlana Shaykh Hisham is praying for you. Joy also is a test like pain. Certainty in Allah controlling and watching all instills peace. “The fruit of real belief is peace” (Mawlana Shaykh Nazim) and the Sufi path rests on the Prophetic knowledge that the ego is destructive and must be reformed.
May Allah grant you ease through your difficult test and strength.
Hajj Gibril Haddad
