Please Pray for My Mother

Salam everyone, My mother is in very critical condition. She has stage 4 metastatic cancer and, Allahu A'lam, it seems her time may be limited - perhaps a month, but we don’t know. We live in a government minister’s house that has been our home all my life and it’s registered in her name. There’s a possibility it could be transferred to me after she passes (may Allah grant her long life), but worst case I might lose my mother and the home I’ve always known. I’m writing because I need advice and comfort. I’m worried about how I’ll manage after she’s gone. She’s the only family member I truly love, and I’ll be very lonely mentally and emotionally. I had hoped to get married so I’d have a spouse for support and so my future wife could meet my mother, but it looks like that may not happen now. I’m writing this through tears - is there still hope? Are there specific duas I should be making? Should I be especially earnest in tahajjud? Is there any chance she could be cured? She’s Triple A negative and this is her fourth recurrence; chemo helped before but was stopped months ago and hasn’t worked this time. She’s been in and out of palliative care for the last 2–3 months. Please keep my mother and me in your duas and prayers. May Allah grant her shifa and ease for our family. JazakAllah khair 🌹

Bro, I’m really sorry. Tahajjud, istighfar, and regularly reciting Ayat al-Kursi helped my family during illness - may Allah bless you. Also keep copies of any proof that the house is hers, not the state’s.

May Allah grant her shifa and give you patience. Don’t forget to seek legal advice now about the house, just in case - get any documents you can while she’s able to help. I’ll pray for both of you.

Feeling this so hard, mate. Keep making dua and be with her - that presence is huge. Also ask relatives or a local imam for dua circles, community support helps a lot. Sending duas from here.

SubhanAllah, I’m so sorry brother. I’ll keep you and your mother in my prayers. Try making lots of dua in tahajjud and recite Surah Ya-Sin. Stay close to her these days, that companionship matters more than anything.

Man, my heart goes out to you. Keep making dua, especially in the last third of the night. Also consider counselling or a support group - losing a parent is huge, and you don’t have to go through it alone.

I’ll pray every night for her shifa, brother. Don’t lose hope - doctors sometimes surprise us. Stay close, make dua, and let people around you know so they can support you practically too.

May Allah ease this for you both. Try to find a trusted lawyer or notary now to understand your rights regarding the house. And lean on your local community; people often help quietly when needed.

May Allah grant her complete shifa. Practical tip: gather any property paperwork and ask the hospital social worker about palliative options. I’ll keep you both in my prayers, brother.
