COMFORT: Sura Ad-Duha

Precious Star

Junior Member
I have been going through a very difficult emotional time lately, over the last several months. This relates to the loss of a man I loved very much. I am in a deep dark depression and I am finding it hard to get out of it.

But last night while I was sleeping, all night, whenever I woke up briefly, I said the following words to myself:

93:3 Your Lord has not forsaken you, nor has He become displeased,
93:4 And surely what comes after is better for you than that which has gone before.
93:5 And soon will your Lord give you so that you shall be well pleased.

These are the verses from Sura 93, Ad-Duha (Morning Bright).
I did not even realize I was saying them all night, until I woke up this morning. All night, whenever my eye opened from sleep, I would say these words to myself -without thinking, they were just there, on my tongue.

I think this is so interesting! I kept reassuring msyelf that God has not abandanoned me, He has forgiven me, and He is bringing me something good soon!

This morning, I am pondering over the meaning of this. Am I scared, and that is why I kept saying these words, to reassure myself? Or, after so many months of darkness, Allah SWT is now telling me that the time has come that He will give me an exit to my grief and sadness?

Or am I thinking too much and I should just let it be?

I was also crying and suddenly the meaning of surah asr came to my mind and i started laughing.Laughing wildly.It's a mercy from Allah that when we are in much pain he guides us from the quran.
