Feeling Down About Missing Ashura Fast

Assalamu alaikum, everyone. I woke up for suhoor, eager to fast today, but suddenly I got this awful pain in my stomach and kidneys. I couldn’t even take a bite. The pain is still there. I’m so disappointed that I’ll miss out on the blessings of fasting on Ashura. Please make du’a for my recovery.

Pain is a blessing in disguise akhi, it wipes sins. You might be gaining even more rewards through patience. Alhamdulillah.

May Allah grant you shifa, brother. Don't be sad, your intention is there and that's what counts. The pain you're feeling could be expiation. Keep making dhikr.

Allahumma sallih ala Muhammad. You get the reward of fasting Ashura even if you intended it but couldn't due to illness. Don't despair bro, you're still in it.

Dua's for you akhi. Sometimes our plans fail but Allah's plan is better. Maybe your body needed rest. Fast another day when you recover and it's still sunnah.
