I will never forget this one conversation I had with my 14 year old son, Afeef.
He said his ustaz in school told him that "teenage life is full of problems, difficulties and obstacles, and if you find yourself in a difficult situation and it is too overwhelming, please turn to Allah for guidance and peace. Get up in the middle of the night 3am-5.30am is the best time. Pray tahajjud, solat hajat, and believe me, your life will be at ease... "
That's what his ustaz said.
And then Afeef continued, he said, after all that is done, but still you find your heart and head in a mess, the problem is then lies within yourself. You have too many negative thoughts!
You need to think positive mama!
Okay okay, he directed that to me, because currently I am in a difficult situation and my Afeef here is always the best person to confide in other than my mom and hubby. But of course, different issues needed to be highlighted to each of them hihi.

Ps: no wonder lately, I noticed that he hardly missed getting up in the middle of the night, praying. Sometimes I watched him quietly with tears in my eyes. I'm blessed with a great son. I compared myself to him when I was 14 years old, at that time, I didn't even complete the 5 times prayer a day let alone getting up in the middle of the night for tahajjud!!!!
I am blessed...
Thank you Allah. 😢😢😢
