Allah will always comfort you
I’ve been so empty these days, I have my family, my friends,
I’ve got extra time to complete my work at times,
but there’s still emptiness in me.
Then I realised that I’ve not talked to Allah for a very long time.
I did pray everyday, but at times I feel like I am doing it,
for the sake of doing it, because it’s just my routine
and this shouldn’t be the case.
One day, Allah has poured me with sadness,
but I know He doesn’t mean to hurt me,
instead He wants to give me some lessons.
When you care so much, it hurts.
It hurts more when no one appreciates you.
Well, maybe they don’t mean it,
they do appreciate you
but their kind of appreciation can’t be felt by you.
So, I cried. I cried because of that petty things.
Maybe I’ve been holding my grudge for so long,
then one day, I bursted.
I asked forgiveness from Allah,
because maybe I’ve done so many mistakes
or maybe I’ve not been that dependent on Him all this while,
so in my prayer, I cried.
I felt so guilty, it’s like me talking to Him only when I’m sad,
and hardly talk to Him when He has given me
so much of joy and happiness in my life.
But the best part is, I know He’ll still listen to me even
He already knew the thing I told Him.
Then I took the Quran, and recited it, and read its meaning.
“Dan janganlah kamu berasa lemah,
dan jangan pula bersedih hati,
sebab kamu paling tinggi darjatnya,
jika kamu orang yang beriman.”
(Al-‘Imran 3:139)
Masha Allah.
The first ayat I read, He already comforted me.
Somehow, we don’t have to wait for years or hours to wait for His reply.
In a split second, He will comfort you.
All this while, I shouldn’t wait for people to say sorry.
I shouldn’t ask for their appreciation, I shouldn’t demand for them to comfort me,
because Allah will. He will always be there for me, when no else isn’t.
Alhamdulillah Ya Allah.
For giving me the pleasure of thankfulness
after pouring me with a small portion of sadness in my heart.
Alhamdulillah.
