Catching a Glimpse of a Woman

You don’t realize the weight of your own struggles until you see others who’ve faced challenges so daunting they’ve lost their eyesight to tears.

Yesterday, I caught a glimpse of a woman wiping away her tears without her noticing me. I was torn between approaching her and respecting her privacy, knowing that sometimes inquisitiveness can be hurtful. Often, people just need to cry out their pain and reflect deeply before making a decision. So, I chose to remember her in my prayers instead. May Allah ease her affairs and bring her peace.

Life can be overwhelming, especially for women. It’s crucial for us to be aware of the struggles those around us might be facing. As loved ones, it’s essential to be supportive, understanding, and forgiving toward one another. Life is indeed complicated and delicate. When interacting with others, let’s strive to be as kind as possible. May Allah ease all our affairs and guide us to be a source of comfort for those in need.
