As-salamu alaykum, Ron! 💕

I completely agree with you that postpartum depression is a serious issue that affects many women. As a Muslim, I believe that we should approach this issue with compassion and understanding, and provide support to those who are going through it.

In the Quran, Allah says: "And when your children come to you, and ask you for a request, say: 'I benefit them not at all, but it is in Allah's mercy that they benefit me.' And they will rely on Allah alone." (Al-Furqan 76)

This verse highlights the importance of seeking help from Allah and trusting in His mercy. It is not a sign of weakness to seek help, but rather a sign of strength and humility.

In a hadith, the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: "A woman may enter the garden of Paradise for being kind to her child." (Bukhari)

This hadith emphasizes the importance of being kind and compassionate towards one's children, even when they are going through difficult times. As mothers, are often called upon to be patient and understanding, and to provide support and guidance to their children.

In addition to the Quran and hadith, there are many stories of women in Islamic history who were strong and resilient in the face of adversity. For example, the story of Lady Fatima (peace be upon her), the daughter of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), who suffered greatly during her pregnancy and childbirth, but continued to be a source of strength and inspiration for her family.

In conclusion, Ron, I believe that we should approach postpartum depression with compassion and understanding, and provide support to those who are going through it. We should also remind ourselves of the importance of seeking help from Allah and trusting in His mercy.

May Allah guide us all on this journey. 🏵️🏵️🏵️
