How I’m Dealing with a Disability in My Mid-20s as a Muslim Sister
Assalamu alaikum, I just want to open up a bit. I spent the whole last year grieving, and now, finally, I’m starting to accept things. As a woman, this hit me when I felt I was at my best-looks, health, even my online presence was thriving. It's a rare condition I’d rather not specify, but it’s not about walking or mobility. Fixing it means going through tough medical treatments that might not even work. I had to leave university, put my plans on hold, missed out on jobs, a potential spouse, and more. But it’s all Qadr, Alhamdulilah. The only thing that’s kept me going, given me hope and some peace, is truly relying on Allah SWT, not on people. I got off social media and chose to focus completely on myself and my deen. If you’re going through something similar, remember Allah loves you and is right there with you.
