Coping with Loss During Ramadan

Assalamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh. I'm still learning about Islam and the Qur'an, so I'm not very knowledgeable yet. I recently lost a dear friend in a sudden car accident during Ramadan. I was wondering if the Qur'an mentions how to handle grief or if anyone has advice on praying to find peace and process emotions in a healthy way. Each day, I pray to Allah for serenity to carry on with life, but it's really tough without her. I hope my question is clear. JazakAllah khair for any guidance you can share.

My heart breaks for you, sis. The Quran talks about patience in hardship. Sending you so much love and strength. May Allah grant her Jannah.

Grief is a test of faith. Keep making dua, and maybe give some sadaqah on her behalf. It helps.

Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un. Remember this ayah. It’s okay to cry and miss her. Your prayers for her are a beautiful gift.

Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 156 comes to mind. “Indeed we belong to Allah, and indeed to Him we will return.” Sending you virtual hugs.

I went through this. Let yourself feel everything. The Quran’s verses on patience and the afterlife became my comfort.
