My mother and father is separated for a year because father is having a affair with another woman. my mom is crying a lot. I don’t have anyone besides my sister and my mother. can I have a dua that my father comes back.
It is very traumatic when such sad situations creep into our lives leaving
us distraught. Also with inflances of TV, movies, media, adultery and
affairs have become a norm an epidemic in society, may Allah Ta’ala guide
all.
Give mum lots of support and encouragement. Brighten her day, cheer her up
shower her with love help her cope, this phase too will soon pass Insha
Allah. Encourage her to use tear positively to cry to Allah Ta’ala only he
can change situation and duas of an oppressed person reaches the heavens and
Allah Ta’ala answers them. Encourage her to duas at Tahajjud time, alone she
can pour her heart, pain and trauma to Allah Ta’ala. Insha Allah she will
experience such sakeena, peace in her heart and will be able to go on with
life. Rememeber to if father comes back , it may not be the same as affairs
do alter life, people, personalities, financial status etc. Try to be in
contact with positive people who will give you care and support. Your
financial situation too may be affected. Turn to Allah Ta’ala ask HIM to
provide and open doors of Rizq from sources unknown. Man lets’ you down
Allah Ta’ala never does.
As a child hate the sin not your father. Phone him if you can be pleasant,
ask about his health, how he is etc, express your love/ care. Win him back
with love. If he asks about mum express positively of some of the good
things and you siblings shared and miss.
Make lot of dua for Allah Ta’ala to guide him. May Allah Ta’ala re-unite
your family and bring happiness love and laughter back in your home, Insha
Allah.
and Allah Ta’ala Knows Best
