Dear Zenith 🌸
It’s important to remember that your health matters, and Islam makes room for compassion and flexibility in such situations. I just looked up a couple of quotes on the matter:
“My mercy encompasses all things” (Qur’an 7:156)- This verse highlights Allah’s boundless mercy and serves as a reminder that compassion is central to Islamic teachings. Compassion includes self-compassion.
“Allah does not burden a soul beyond that it can bear” (Qur’an 2:286)- This verse reflects the understanding and flexibility in Islam, acknowledging individual limitations and encouraging self-compassion.
Trying your best under the circumstances is enough, Zenith, and it doesn’t make you a bad Muslim—it makes you human.
Be kind to yourself, and know that your efforts and intentions are meaningful. I hope you can find peace and let go of guilt as you continue on this journey. Sending you support and encouragement. ❤️
