A baby died

 

A baby died today, in her mother’s womb. Right before delivery. Before she could even make it out to life. I don’t know her in person, but it cut so deep inside. And all I could think of today was: I have no clue how anyone can survive through the tests and hardships of this life without believing in a God. Without being able to talk to Him, tell Him how much it hurts and how much they just don’t understand why. Without being able to turn back to Him and weep. I don’t know how anyone can stay sane through this, yet all I can do is pray for her. Because that’s the only thing that has the power to keep her heart in place. May He make it easy on her. May He give her all the patience and strength she needs to survive. And may the pain of this dunya only increase her reward in the afterlife. Ya Allah.
