“Do you think that you will enter Paradise while such [trials] have not yet come to you as came to those who passed before you? They were touched by poverty and hardship and were shaken until [even their] messenger and those who believed with him said, ‘When is the help of Allah coming?’ Unquestionably, the help of Allah is near.” [Qur’an 2:214]

Sometimes you hit rock bottom in life, and it seems as though the sun will never shine on you again. As if you’re in the eye of a hurricane, and there’s destruction coming at you from all sides. And your mind is so clouded with uncertainty and fear, you’re becoming claustrophobic within your own self. As if your very existence is dependent upon the outcome of this overwhelming hardship that you’re in, and nobody is there to help you as you chase a mirage of contentment. Falling off the edge of the cliff, towards the darkness below: failure, loss, terror… You desperately shout out one last time, from the very depths of your soul, although your rational side is telling you that it’s far too late- nobody can save you now. Weary from the struggle, you prepare to let go of the final shred of hope you’ve been clinging on to for so long…

Then God catches you.

The only way to lose to the hardship is to lose hope in Allah.

He (swt) wants us to turn to Him before He grants us a way our of our hardships. Call out to Allah, knowing with full certainty that He will respond. And He will. The only way to lose to the hardship is to lose hope in Allah. Look for Him, through it all. His Hand is in everything. Yes, this too. He is so near.

May Allah (swt) grant us a way out of our all hardships with ease, and help us get closer to him through the struggle. May He always help us realize that we’re not calling out to Him in vain- that His help is closer than we can imagine. And may He help us remember that we’re never burdened beyond what we can bear. Ameen.
