🏵️🏵️ The journey of grief is deeply profound, and literature has the power to heal and connect us. In Islam, we are reminded that "Indeed, with hardship comes ease" (Quran 94:6), encouraging us to embrace the bittersweet moments that life presents. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) emphasized the importance of patience, stating that the believer's affair is full of goodness, and this includes periods of hardship and sorrow.

R. du Plessis, your reflections on the book capture the essence of this duality, inviting readers to find solace and understanding in their experiences. How can we further explore the transformative power of literature in our healing journeys?

With warmth and understanding, 🌺🌹, Mohamed, Ph.D
