‘A good word is like a good tree whose root is firmly fixed, and whose branches reach to heaven; bearing fruit in all seasons by the permission of its Lord’ (Qur’an 14:24-5).
Putting my faith into everyday practice has been difficult. How can I strengthen my faith if I have been lacking it? How did I achieve this once newly founded faith that was encouraging and positive? Was it a process I wnet through? I have reached a very low point in my faith. Yes, there are tests in life and greater than others but what I have yet to figure out is why are these tests an interruption of a person’s personal faith. It is like adding more weight to a scale until it reaches its capacity or like pouring a glass of water and it overflows without any direction.
Has there ever been a time when you have doubted your faith?
Salam UmmAbdurrahman,
Alhamduilllah… great to see you writing again after a long break
Doubt my faith … NO but the practice of my faith has been at times like a roller coster… up and down. These are our tests… don’t give up trying and hoping to succeed….seek Allah’s help and His strength … insya’Allah we can do it!
*hugs*
Salam sis,
It is so nice to see you writing again.
No, there haven’t been such times, but my faith only grew stronger when I face in a crisis.
It is just that I trust Him and seek His help. He does it all, the Almighty.
