Happily Ever After

This is the spot…I said to myself…behold my heart…this is the spot…

This is the spot…where…I lost my happiness….drained tears and forgot my smile.

I enter the valley silently and walk slowly so the tramping of my feet does not disturb the sleepers.

The silence that guards the valley does not reveal the secret how its residents are feeling inside their small houses.

Even the rustling of the small tree branches by the side of my mother’s place does not discloses the mysteries.

I stop humbly at my mothers’ grave and greet the earth that encloses her.

I prayed…burst into tears…but I could not…even once…can touch her…hold her…embrace her…or even see her.

I want to ask for her forgiveness and want her to know that I am really really missing her so much.

And I am so so SAD….hmmm….

I lost my dear mother on Friday, 10 February 2012 at 12:45 pm.

  3. Please accept my condolences on your loss. The loss of one's mother is an irreparable one which no words can tardy. Your blog entry reminds me of the soothing Psalm from the Zubur of Prophet David (peace be upon him):

    The Lord is my Shepherd; I shall not want.
    He maketh me to lie down in green pastures:
    He leadeth me beside the still waters.
    He restoreth my soul:
    He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His name' sake.

    Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
    I will fear no evil: For thou art with me;
    Thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me.
    Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies;
    Thou annointest my head with oil; My cup runneth over.

    Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life,
    and I will dwell in the House of the Lord forever.

    May Allah SWT enlighten your mother's grave with His NOOR. May HE forgive all of her sins and grant her with the best placement in Jannatul Firdaus-- AAMEEN.
    I am very sad indeed. May Allah grant you and your siblings sabr-e-jammel during this hard moment.
    This is the reality of life, we all have to go sooner or later.

  9. Thinking,

    Read 3 pending posts now. I will only say that it is so sad when one loses mother. One feels so lost as no matter how old one is there is always a feeling that in case of any difficulty I will ask my mother for help. May her soul be blessed with eternal peace. Please do bear the loss as we have no option in front of God's will. Do keep fond memories and follow the right paths she showed you.

    Take care
