A letter for the mom who has lost her child

Sharing is caring!

Dear grieving mom,

There are no words that can describe the feelings for your loss. Maybe I have never gone through what you went through. But from a mother to another, I feel your pain.

My heart aches for you, grieving for your loss; thinking if I feel this way, how much more painful it might be for you.

Knowing how it felt to be carrying a life in your womb and knowing how it felt to have given birth, the cut runs deeper just thinking about what you just went through.

But I know it’s not the same as being you, having gone through the loss yourself. It’s not the same. The pain is incomparable.

I saw how you gave your child your last kiss, with your tears falling on your child’s cheeks.

As a sister in Islam, I can do no more than just pray for you, and I pray that reading these verses from the Qur’an and hadiths will be a source of comfort for you.

A test from Allah

No doubt this is a huge test from Allah.
As Allah said in the Qur’an, Surah al-Baqarah verse 155 to 157;

وَلَنَبۡلُوَنَّكُم بِشَىۡءٍ۬ مِّنَ ٱلۡخَوۡفِ وَٱلۡجُوعِ وَنَقۡصٍ۬ مِّنَ ٱلۡأَمۡوَٲلِ وَٱلۡأَنفُسِ وَٱلثَّمَرَٲتِ‌ۗ وَبَشِّرِ ٱلصَّـٰبِرِينَ
And certainly, We shall test you with something of fear, hunger, loss of wealth, lives and fruits, but give glad tidings to As- Saabiroon (the patient).

ٱلَّذِينَ إِذَآ أَصَـٰبَتۡهُم مُّصِيبَةٌ۬ قَالُوٓاْ إِنَّا لِلَّهِ وَإِنَّآ إِلَيۡهِ رَٲجِعُونَ
Who, when afflicted with calamity, say: ‘Truly, to Allaah we belong and truly, to Him we shall return.’

أُوْلَـٰٓٮِٕكَ عَلَيۡہِمۡ صَلَوَٲتٌ۬ مِّن رَّبِّهِمۡ وَرَحۡمَةٌ۬‌ۖ وَأُوْلَـٰٓٮِٕكَ هُمُ ٱلۡمُهۡتَدُونَ
They are those on whom are the Salawaat (i.e. who are blessed and will be forgiven) from their Lord, and (they are those who) receive His Mercy, and it is they who are the guided ones.”

Allah knows who to test

لَا يُكَلِّفُ ٱللَّهُ نَفۡسًا إِلَّا وُسۡعَهَا‌ۚ

Allah does not burden a soul beyong his capacity

[Surah al-Baqarah, verse 286]

The wonderful affairs of a Muslim

The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said:
“How wonderful is the affair of the believer, for his affair is all good, and this applies to no one except the believer. If something good happens to him, he gives thanks and that is good for him, and if something bad happens to him, he bears it with patience, and that is good for him.”
[Muslim (5318)]

How the best human dealt with losing a child

Without a doubt, losing your own child is painful. By the grace and mercy of Allah, He has given us the best of example for us to follow when dealing with such situations. Our Prophet (ﷺ) too lost a child at a young age. He saw his son Ibrahim in his last breath, and his tears shed.

One of his companions, Abdur Rahman ibn ‘Auf said, “O Allah’s Apostle, even you are weeping!”
The prophet replied, “O Ibn `Auf, this is mercy.”

And our beloved prophet (ﷺ) wept more and then he said;

إِنَّ الْعَيْنَ تَدْمَعُ، وَالْقَلْبَ يَحْزَنُ، وَلاَ نَقُولُ إِلاَّ مَا يَرْضَى رَبُّنَا، وَإِنَّا بِفِرَاقِكَ يَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ لَمَحْزُونُونَ
“The eyes are shedding tears and the heart is grieved, and we will not say except what pleases our Lord. Oh, Ibrahim! Indeed we are grieved by your separation.”

[Sahih al-Bukhari 1303, source]

A house in Jannah for those who lost their child and remain patient

The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said:

When a person’s child dies, Allaah says to His angels, ‘You have taken the child of My slave.’

They say, ‘Yes.’

He says, ‘You have taken the apple of his eye.’

They say, ‘Yes.’

He says, ‘What did My slave say?’

They say, ‘He praised you and said “Innaa lillaahi wa inna ilayhi raaji’oon (Verily to Allaah we belong and unto Him is our return).’

Allaah says, Build for My slave a house in Paradise and call it the house of praise.

[Al-Tirmidhi (942), Classed as hasan by al-Albaani in al-Silsilah al-Saheehah, 1408]

What happens when your child dies

Rest assured for Allah the most Merciful, has put your child under the best of care with prophet Ibraheem (alaihi salam).

The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) often used to say to his companions: “Has anyone among you seen a dream?” and whoever Allaah willed would tell him what he had seen.

One day he said: “Last night two people came to me and made me get up, and they said to me: ‘Let’s go.’ So I set off with them…” He mentioned things that he had seen, then he said:

“We set off, and we came to a verdant garden, in which were all the colors of spring, where there was a man who was so tall that I could hardly see his head in the sky. Around the man was the largest number of children I had ever seen…”

Then among things that the two angels explained to him was: “As for the tall man who was in the garden, that was Ibraaheem. As for the children who were around him, these are all the children who died in a state of fitrah.”

One of the Muslims said: “O Messenger of Allaah, what about the children of the mushrikeen?” He said: “And the children of the mushrikeen.”

[Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 7047]

The children will take their parents to paradise

And finally, the best of glad tidings is for you to hope and pray to be reunited with your child in Jannah insya’Allah.

It was narrated that Abu Hassaan said: I said to Abu Hurayrah:
Two of my sons have died. Can you narrate to me any hadith from the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) which will console us for our loss?

He said: Yes: “Their little ones are the little ones (da’aamees) of Paradise. When one of them meets his father – or his parents – he takes hold of his garment – or his hand – as I am taking told of the hem of your garment, and he does not let go until Allah admits him and his father to Paradise.

[Narrated by Muslim, 2635]

Ibn al-Atheer said: Da’aamees is the plural of da’moos, which refers to a small creature that lives in ponds. Da’moos also refers to the one who wanders about, i.e., they go everywhere in Jannah, entering all places, and they will not be barred from any place, as children in this world are not barred from entering upon women and no one hides away from them. End quote.
[Al-Nihaayah, 2/279, source]

A special do’a for those afflicted by a calamity

Finally, the last hadith that I want to share with you, is a special do’a taught by our beloved prophet () for those who has been afflicted by a calamity.

Ummu Salamah lost her husband whom she loved so dearly, and she recited this special do’a which the prophet taught. And she was given a better substitute than him; she was married to Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ).

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said,

“When a person suffers from a calamity and utters:
إن لله وإنا إليه راجعون‏:‏ اللهم آجرني في مصيبتي، واخلف لي خيرا منها

Inna lillahi wa inna ilaihi raji’un. Allahumma ujurni fi musibati, wakhluf li khairan minha

We belong to Allah and to Him we shall return. O Allah! Compensate me in my affliction, recompense my loss and give me something better in exchange for it.

Then Allah surely compensates him with reward and better substitute.”

[Narrated by Muslim, Book 7, Hadith 28; source]

 

May Allah heal your pain.

May Allah compensated you for your loss.

May Allah raise your rank in the hereafter.

May Allah reunite you with your children in Paradise.

Yours sincerely,

Your sister in Islam.

    Assalam alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu
    I lost my son last year on the 29th of October. He was only 2years and 5 months old. This month it’s going be one year. And I’m still struggling from the loss, I miss him day and night. I don’t know how to share my feelings sometimes, I cry alone and remember his smiling innocent face and I just can’t bear the pain. I have an elder son too Alhamdulillah and for his sake I don’t show my emotions to anyone. But it’s just too hurtful sometimes. I pray to Allah to give me patience and sabr but I miss him a lot and sometimes it just becomes so difficult to understand life. Thank you for sharing your thoughts it helps in a way. May allah always bless you and your family Aameen and please do pray for me so that I can get more patience with dealing all of this. In sha Allah

  • GulNoor

    My first born returned 3 weeks ago to her creator 10-6-2022
    Grieving is about a loss
    I’ve not lost her
    Sadia beti had gone back home and I will meet her when I return
    I will miss her immensely that is paining
    But she lead a life of akira vision
    Mashallah

      Assalam alaikum rahmatullahi barakatuhu
      I lost my son on a road accident on 15/12/2022. He wasn’t riding the bike, he was sitting behind and was hit by the car on 11/12/2022 he was in coma for continuous 4 days, on the 15th of December morning we lost him. inna ilaihi wa inna ilaihi rajioon. May Allah grant him the best of the best place in paradise (Ameen)
      He was a good son and good human being. He did lot of good work and charity in the name of Allah. Loved all the younger and obeyed the elders. Loved by many and many people. I miss him tremendously I can’t explain the pain I am going through.. but I know Allah kept him in much much better place and provide him whatever he missed in this world.
      During his Janaza there were so many people we didn’t even know that he was so popular amongst us. In the masjid moulana announced that even jumma namaz there won’t be so many people.. I’m proud to have son like him.
      Pray for my son and I know he is in the best of the best places
      May Allah bless him best rewards Ameen

        As salaam alaikum, I was learning about Islam after losing my sister, then two months later my Mom would go back to Allah. Islam gave me peace, I reverted a few months later alhamdulillah, never regretted it. May Allah swt bless all of we and accept our deeds.

    • Ummee

      Assalamu Alaikum reading this made me feel better. I lost my son after birth on the same day about a month ago. And the pain is unimaginable and it feels unbearable but I trust in Allah’s me and I know He will give us something better by His mercy.

      • Nisha PV

        My kid returned to God on 16/09/2022. She was 1 year old. The belief in God gives me the strength to go on. I hope to meet her in the paradise upon His mercy.
        Thank you sister for your kind words

      • Fai

        I lost my 2 year old 4 weeks ago, islam really gives you peace and to know he is at peace, no questions asked and straight going to heaven is remarkable. All the worldly suffering and pain finished. But that doesn’t stop the pain I go through of missing his presence nevertheless,
        ‎إِنَّا لِلَّٰهِ وَإِنَّا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعُون
        I firmly believe Allah is the best planners of all his plan is always better.

  • AZIZA

    Assalamualaikum
    Alhamdulillah..I thank Our Almighty Allah for carrying us through this time. For only unto Him do we turn to. We lost our daughter 2 weeks ago due to suicide, I know a lot of people are shocked and immediately say but in Islam we don’t Do it. My daughter had chronic depression, anorexia and chronic anxiety but she is Muslim.. We did all we could, took her to physiatrist even booked her in rehab. Nothing worked for her sadly. I humbly request duaa’s for our beautiful Zarrah and firmly believe she was not in her right mind at the time. Allah forgive her, only Allah knows… Allahu Akbar 🤲🤲🤲

  • Naima Ali

    I lost my baby girl 9 hours after an emergency C-Section in March 2021. Talk about double pain and tragedy. She was my first born and had carried her to term without any complications Alhamdulillah. So, I went from being happy in one instance to extremely sad but Alhamdulillah I had my mother with me. Having lost four children in infancy, she really understood what I felt at the moment. She said this exactly, “What Allah has planned to happen, happened. Do not be sad. Alhamdulillah that you are still alive and God-willingly you will have many more children. It would have been worse if we had lost you. Plus, it is all for the better. She is your intercessor Yaumul Qiyaamah. Alhamdulillah. Imagine if you had formed a bond with your daughter only for her to be taken away from you so suddenly. So thank and praise Allah.”
    Anyway I believe you can really never get over the death of your child. Sometimes the sadness hits you like a strong wave but you remember Allah and the promise that your child is waiting for you in Jannah ,and you forget the pain. But sometimes you are so broken and numb you feel you can no longer function. May Allah give us Sabr and understanding and heal our hearts.

    • Aisha

      Ameen, I feel your pain, I lost my daughter after 4 hrs in Feb. Your mum is so right, and alhumdulillah for everything else that we still have. It took a while for the ‘waves’ to go, and they probably never truly will, but it does get easier xxxx

        • Hodan Adan

          Asalamu aleikum,
          I lost my son during the last bit of labor. After carrying him to term and even feeling him kicking me during my labor only to be told that he didn’t make it was one of the most heart wrenching experiences of my life. Subhanallah. It’s only been two weeks since then and Alhamdulilah I’m trying my best to come to terms with it. He is my third child, and he was beautiful and without fault. He wasn’t destined to live and I accept Allah SW decree. I miss him every minute of every day and I pray I’m reunited with him in janna. This article has helped me in a sense. Reading the comments and everything you’ve posted. Jazakallah kheir sister, May Allah SW reward you! Ameen. And it’s Ramadan 25th 1443 AH, I’m
          Making dua for all of you in the comments. May Allah reward us for our patience.🤲🏾

  • Saj

    ASA, I really liked reading your letter it touched me in ways I can’t explain I lot my son 5 months ago he was 21 years old my beautiful boy he had a learning disability his death was very sudden it’s been really hard coping without him but I know he is in very beautiful place in jannat.

    • Ameenah Castro

      Assalam Aleikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu Reading all of you makes me not feel alone. I lost my son 22 years old but was as a little boy in his mind, an adult with learning disabilities as well. It’s been the hardest 20 days without him.

      • Shamila

        I lost my 5 year old son, he was born 3 months prematurely, at 26 weeks, weighing only 2 pounds, 4 months in hospital, came home with oxygen, after having 2 healthy kids, then losing 2 pregnancies 1 at 8 months 1 at 5 months, then having my premature son born on hajj day which fell on Sunday also died on a Sunday, it’s 1 of the hardest test that’s hit me soo hard that I completely feel lost without him, I feel my life is not worth living no more, even though I have everything I have nothing to be happy, I never imagined my life without my baby, I know his waiting for me but I just wish I could go by him, I miss him soo much, I always use to make dua while reading namaaz plz Allah never test a mother losing a child because my mom lost my brother 9 years ago at the age of 26 and she always cry’s when it’s Eid or his birthday or death anniversary, but little did I know I will be experiencing the same loss and pain, life goes on but it’s never the same

    • Umm Ayman

      My baby of one and a half month passed away and this post has given me so much strength and made me have the strength to cope with it. It has given me a sense of peace and calm knowing my baby is doing well with my Rabb. May Allah give us the strength and patience to live with such pain in our hearts.

      Jazakallahu Khair for this letter. I had a still born just 1 week ago. It’s very painful and the wave of emotions keep hitting on constantly. But reading this letter and the comments from other parents it’s very helpful. Inna lillahi wa inna ilaihi rajiun. Allahumma ajurni fiy musibatiyy wakhlufli khyran minna.

          My son was born at home and returned to paradise within2 months at home .The only think I prayed to Allah was to give me strength and sabr and just see him once again in my dream. Very shortly after I seen 2 noor like entities carrying a baby with light coming out . Saying he didn’t want to go but this was his time. He is happy.There was so much peace and tranquillity that moment until today when I close my eyes I feel my son was a gift and I was chosen to spend precious moments when he was with us. I know I will inshallah meet with him one day. He had a purpose . I understand.
