Why Did They Have to Die? | Why Me? | EP. 19 | Dr. Omar Suleiman | A Ramadan Series on Qadar

Every soul must taste death, and every human must experience loss. But how do you deal with that loss, accept the reality of death, and understand a decree that seems to take away what you love so dearly?

Al-Hikam al-Ataa’iyyah 24:

لَا تَسْتَغْرِبْ وُقُوعَ الْأَكْدَارِ مَا دُمْت فِي هَذِهِ الدَّارِ، فَإِنَّهَا مَا أَبْرَزَتْ إلَّا مَا هُوَ مُسْتَحِقُّ وَصَفَهَا وَواجِبُ نَعْتِها

So long as you are in this world, be not surprised at the existence of sorrow. For truly, it manifests nothing but what is in keeping with its character or its inevitable nature.

My 4 year old daughter passed away from brain cancer. Now she’s in jennah, waiting to take my hand through the gates. InshaAllah. I gotta stay focused so I don’t disappoint her.

[mailasalman]

I lost my 9yr old son to leukemia in 2022 and still always remembering what he had to go through but happy as I know he is in jannah.

[paulzthoughts]

I haven’t lost anyone so close to me but reading these comments put shivers down my spine . Just thinking about it makes me scared . I hope when Allah tests me, I pray I have the strength to keep turning to him . To those who have lost loved ones . May Allah forgive them, grant them the best reward (jannah) and may Allah bless you and the rest of your family .

[banirahman]

I lost both of my parents. My Abba in August 2023 and my dearest Amma in January 2024. Last Ramadan they both were here and now they are not here.

The pain is excruciating. I miss them every moment.

May Allah SWT forgive them and bless them with Jannatul Ferdaus. Ameen.

I lost my 5 month old to SIDS two months ago. Alhumdulillah and Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi rajiun. A few hours after burial, i tried to read different narrations about children who passed away in young age and I came across Sh Omar Suleiman "For Those Left Behind" series. He spoke about losing a child in one of the episodes. I found it very relatable and comforting alhamdulilah. The words of the Prophet ﷺ on the matter were a source of solace. My little girl is now roaming freely in Jannah and is waiting for us, her parents alhamdulillah. I'm really looking forward to watch and benefit from this one inshaAllah.

SubhanAllah my father said his Shahada 2 days before he passed away. I cried however my heart felt content...Allahu Akbar 😊

[samia]

My dad died 3 weeks ago, I have been numb but slowly it’s sinking in especially when I am going through some health discomfort. I miss him. Alhamdulilah. Innalilahi wa inna ilayhi rajioon. He was in the hospital for a month. When I heard my sister call and say “Dad passed” it was surreal. The whole situation was a nightmare, may Allah illuminate his grave, give him Jannah with no reckoning, forgive all his sins and allow us to meet him in Jannah. Ameen.

"This temporary life we live, is just a cycle of events to be patient with and events to be grateful for ❤️"
literally life changing lines

[jamirahnanono]

I lost my 3 year old son two weeks ago
Inna lillahi wainna ilaihi rajiun
Alhamdhulillah I am getting better, may Allah reunite us in Janna

[nuruljannah]

My dad returned to Allah SWT at 83y.o in the month of Rejab 1445H,

We were shocked to get called when he was in saf pray for maghrib in the mosque,

As his witness is also the jamaah, the jamaah told my mom my dad didn’t finish his last tahiyat & pass out, when the ambulance came he was transfered to hospital & in coma for four days,

Never thought he was waiting Juma’at & that 4 days was so meaningful to us,

My dad who so in love with masjeed & take care of his 5 times prayer with jamaah, Allah took him during his solat & in the blessed day of Juma’at in a holy month of Rejab,

This is my 1st Ramadan without him, normally he always busy before iftar because he iftar in masjeed & at the age of 83 he fast the whole month, pray teraweeh 20 rakaat & iktikaf & tadarus in masjeed,

May Allah accept all his ‘amal & may Allah reunite us again in Jannatul Firdaus, Allahumma ameen 🤲🏻🤍

My mother passed in August 2023. It was so sudden... I was in my last semester and didn't even graduate then.. she was completely healthy & we really didnt see it coming at all... My only younger brother passed in 2010 from leukemia at the age of 8. It's only me and Baba left in our family and it gets so lonely for us...I cry everyday and I miss my mother every moment. I loved her dearly and was very close to her, but i cannot stop thinking about all the things i couldn't do for her yet..I have always been a practicing muslim but I am trying to focus on Islam more after she passed. I know what happened was destined to happen at that time and it is for the best but I cannot stop crying or feeling depressed. This video comforted me a lot.. I cried the whole time as you comforted me so much. Thankyou from the bottom of my heart. Anyone who sees this, do keep me and my family in your prayers.
May Allah grant them both Jannatul Ferdous. Ameen.

Alhamdullillah everyone in this comment section is showing me patience i wish i could have
I am in my twenties and miss my Baba, i wish he could have seen me get married and have children
InshaAllah in heaven

[dmarieme]

My dearest husband retuned to Allah a year and half ago. Though I accepted Allah's decree, I still grieve him as his has left me to continue raising our three boys. May Allah facilitate the tasl, allahuma amine. May HE fill the emptiness with something far greater and better for us. 😢
May HE fill our hearts with mercy and contentment, allahuma Amiine

[nadeemsyed]

My wife passed away last month due to pregnancy complications. She left behind our beautiful son. I pray everyday may Allah grant her highest of Jannah and unite us three again.

[kobita]

My only son age of 32 left us from stage 4 lung cancer. Missing him every moments. In Sha Allah meet him again .
Amen

[ferozhassan]

Today is 18th Ramadan in Bangladesh and I have lost my father 3 years back on this day. The coincidence of this epiosde getting released today .... and after watching this.. I couldnt hold back my tears. May Allah grant my abba the highest place in Jannah. Rabbir hum huma kama rabba yani saghira.

[septhiems]

My parents passed away in 2021 due to covid. My mom first then my dad 4 days later. It's very shocking and painful to lose both of them in the same week. Qadarullah... I accepted this situation because every soul will taste death. Allah knows best. Now, not a single day i forget to make a dua for their happiness in Jannah. Insya Allah.. I will meet them again in Jannah. Aamiin

[revaluation]

My 2 year old daughter returned to Almighty Allah on January 29th, 2024. This series really helping to cope up. Alhamdulillah.

[tamilla]
