Seeking Understanding and Healing After Childhood Trauma

Salaam. I went through some very difficult experiences as a child that have left deep wounds. Now as an adult, those old pains are surfacing and affecting my life. It's led me to question and struggle with my faith, wondering why such painful trials are allowed to happen. I'm reaching out to my community, hoping to find answers from an Islamic perspective. Are there teachings in our deen that can help explain these tests of life and offer a path to ease this inner pain and find peace? Any advice or reminders from the Quran and Sunnah would be so appreciated. JazakAllah Khair.

Your courage in sharing is inspiring. Please seek a good therapist who understands faith; it helped me tremendously. You don't have to heal alone.

This verse helped me: 'Verily, with hardship comes ease.' (94:6). Hold onto hope. JazakAllah for being vulnerable.

I relate so much. Remember, Allah doesn't burden a soul beyond what it can bear (Quran 2:286). Sending you love and strength.

May Allah ease your pain. Trials can be a means of purification and raising your rank in Jannah. Keep turning to Him.

My heart goes out to you. The story of Prophet Ayyub (AS) always comforts me during hardship. Allah tests those He loves. Be patient and make lots of du'a. May Allah grant you healing.

Sending so much love. Your faith is still there if you're asking these questions. Consider reading about sabr.

So brave of you to speak out. The hadith about afflictions wiping away sins gives me comfort. May Allah replace your pain with peace.
