Life is full of ups and downs, and tests are inevitable. As humans, we’re imperfect – perfection belongs to Allah alone. When trials hit hard, remember to turn back to Allah, who has allowed you to go through them.
In a recent discussion with some sisters online, I emphasized the importance of not comparing your marriage to others. Each of us faces unique trials, and what works for someone else may not work for you. Learn to navigate your own challenges and strive for the best. Having a supportive spouse is a blessing from Allah.
Find comfort in patience and work on perseverance. Let prayer be your solace, and seek help when needed. If you’ve done your best and things don’t work out as planned, you will not be blamed for it, and your efforts will be rewarded by trusting in Allah. Make decisions calmly, and don’t forget to forgive yourself. May Allah ease the affairs of our homes.
