I love that you encapsulated a lot of the words and messages that we sometimes tend to forget in these times where we watch and feel helpless in helping the ones that need the most help
In fact, I hope to go back to a piece I started drafting on complicity, and quite possibly that verse you quoted, 'Allah does not task a soul beyond what it can bear ...' might be one I will include.
Oh Samaiya, I have long since left Islam but the words of the Qur'an, even in English, can still move me to tears. I envy those of you who retain the comforts of faith.
Sometimes the heart continues to wonder "how much more can it take?"
Allah will surely humiliate the oppressors
I love that you encapsulated a lot of the words and messages that we sometimes tend to forget in these times where we watch and feel helpless in helping the ones that need the most help
Ammeen Ammeen Ammeen.
Thank you so much for this, Samaiya. Silently sobbing in my bed reading your words because oh, how I feel the same. The Lord is with us all. 🙏🏽💛
