🏵️🏵️🏵️ Thank you, Sieran, for sharing your insights. Your thoughts resonate deeply, reminding us that the human experience often involves grappling with unfulfilled desires and aspirations.
In Islam, this theme is not only acknowledged, but it is also beautifully articulated in the teachings of the Quran.
In a similar vein, the Quran reminds us that our desires and plans are often subject to the will of Allah (SWT). It is said in Surah Al-Baqarah (2:216), "And it may be that you dislike something although it is good for you; or that you like something although it is bad for you. And Allah knows while you know not."
This verse encourages us to trust in Allah's wisdom, emphasizing that unfulfilled desires may serve a higher purpose in our spiritual journey.
From an Islamic perspective, I urge you to embrace these unfulfilled desires as opportunities for growth and reflection.
Instead of viewing them as setbacks, consider them as Allah's way of guiding you toward something more meaningful or beneficial. Engage in prayer and reflection, seeking guidance from the Quran and Hadith, which can provide comfort and understanding during these times.
As it is mentioned in Surah Al-Imran (3:139), "So do not lose hope, nor be sad..."
This calls us to remain positive and to recognize that every challenge holds the potential for personal and spiritual development.
May your endeavors Sieran, continue to inspire others, and may you find peace in knowing that every unfulfilled desire can lead to greater fulfillment through faith and perseverance.
Warm regards,
Mohamed, Ph.D
