The worry, the concern is that
of the mother.
The mother is more concerned. Our mothers were
more concerned about us than we were about
ourselves.
Have you seen a child?
A child is carefree. It doesn't understand exactly
animal or something dangerous
around the child, you will always find those
adults around the child more worried than the
child.
So this is part of the plan of
Allah. When Allah made us, he prepared
a beautiful
mechanism
of protection
for us from the adults around us in
the case of the vast majority.
When I say vast majority, from amongst us,
they are orphans. From amongst us, they are
those who lost their mothers in childhood
or in infancy or upon birth. From amongst
us. There are those whose circumstances did not
permit or allow for there to be the
same people whom the rest of the world
probably has had because of whatever it might
have been.
But the plan of Allah is always
that a child
is considered absolutely
innocent.
So cute.
Masha Allah. So naturally the hearts of adults
are supposed to be inclined towards this particular
child. You might be thinking, how would I
commence a talk on depression and anxiety,
worry and sadness in this way? But the
reason is
to appreciate the mechanism that Allah has created
us within.
Over and above that,
Allah has created a system and a plan
in order to provide for us the best
possible way forward in our lives.
If you look at the creation of the
day and night
which happened prior to the creation of man,
Allah Almighty says,
Allahumlavijaalalakumullaylalitaskunu
feewanaharamubaswira.
It is Allah who created
for you the night in order to rest,
in order to sleep. It is dark. You're
supposed to go and rest and the day
you can see you're supposed to be working.
So if you get up every morning
and it may require an effort for you
to do that, Part of your problem will
be solved
because you are within the plan of Allah.
You may not understand the benefit of the
sleep of the first part of the night
even though medicine is speaking louder and louder
in that direction.
Far greater way the earlier you go to
bed, whereas Muhammad salallahu alaihi wasallam
came to us and reminded us
after salat alaihi wasallam if you do not
have something
constructive
such as this to do. What do you
What should you do? You should go to
bed.
He may not have mentioned all the detailed
reasons but it's the plan of Allah.
Those whose sleeping patterns are
not in sync with what is supposed to
be for no reason whatsoever
with their own doing or the doing of
their own hands. They are the ones to
blame when they find themselves
sliding into
a form of sadness, or worry, or depression,
or anxiety.
The system of Allah, when you follow it
in a proper way, it will pro It
will empower you. It will actually provide for
you goodness in order to protect you from
the adverse
environment
and from the challenges
of this particular world.
