So what was your answer? Did you
also think of a close friend, siblings, parents, or any other human being to
seek help in bad times?
Don't worry we all do that. But,
have you ever thought that why do we do that? Why we are so prone to seek help
from people first rather than Allah?
I think that all of us have this
affinity to find comfort in our fellow human beings. We try to find the
solution to our problems from people close to us. We think that they are going
to give us a solution in the blink of an eye and all of our problems will
vanish. Okay maybe they won't finish right off or you won't get a solution at
that very moment but still, you have a feeling that you will feel calm and at
peace; and sometimes it is all that you need. But what if those closed ones
whom we thought would help us in our bad times don't do anything to help us
out?
What if we are left alone to face
the storm and the ones we thought would come up to rescue us just stay in their
shelter protecting themselves?
What if when all you need is to
share your feelings with those closed ones but they don't show up?
Also, we humans, tend to think
that the problems and circumstances of others are nothing difficult in front of
ours. But why is there a comparison? Allah tests all of us at different levels
and through different situations then why do we always come up “tumhary sath
toh Itna bura ni hua jitna mere sath hua tha” I mean seriously? Is there a
competition going on?
The biggest mistake that we all do
in bad times is seeking help from people rather than Allah. I don’t know what
overpowers our emotions that we think of sharing our situation with people
rather than Allah. Allah is Al-Baseer (All-Seeing) and Al-Sami (All-Hearing) He
sees whatever circumstances you're going through and He hears every plea of
yours. How do we forget that Allah loves to hear from His people and in the
Quran, Allah says that “Allah never burdens a soul more than it can bear”
(2:286) and “Indeed, with every hardship comes ease” (94:6)
Have faith and trust in Allah and
keep in mind that Allah is Al-Qadir (The One who can do anything) so if He
wills to do something for it will be done even if it seems impossible to you.
Nothing is difficult or impossible for Him, so just supplicate and seek help
from Him.
I pray that anyone who is reading
this, may Allah fulfills all your fair wishes, and may He reward you for all
the difficulties you are facing right now. May He brings ease in your every
hardship and gives you patience and persistence to deal with every kind of
situation.
