a friends grandma died
and hes sad
it was a shock for him and his family
and it was extra sad for him because he wanted her to see him getting married
but that wont happen no more
instead he will carry her spirit with him during the act of katb el-kitab which is the planned islamic marriage contract ceremony, often officiated by a sheikh or imam
the phrase literally means "writing the book"
while i feel his sadness and grief
i also think its a little short-sighted and selfish
because every person has their own cycles ⭕️ of life and sometimes they reach the last cycle that a person gets to experience
its the circle of life
come
and go
come
and go
come
and go
don’t get me wrong
wanting something in life is great
but even greater can you be in moments where you dont get what you want
so the better youre handling that...
people always come
and people always go again
...the greater you are
this doesnt mean that you shouldnt bond with someone and not invest in relationships, please do so plentifully
yes
but what i mean is that
its their life
its their death
its their time on earth
and its not on you to decide who is due when
so be sad
as sad as can be
about the person you loved but lost
but dont be selfish
and let the person be in peace
because living in peace is all we want — whether we live in dunja (earth) or reside in jannah (heaven)
