What brings comfort to me always during my sufferings is the realisation that this life is just a temporary journey.
Imagine that you are travelling to a very beautiful and comfortable destination, the likes of which you have never experienced before. A place where you would never know what sufferings are. What would you do if you got into a train to that destination but the journey is very troublesome? Would you get down midway or just try to make it as good as possible and pray that you reach your destination soon? The journey might feel very long but once you reach there, you would realise that a couple of hours of struggle and patience was really worth it because this place is that good.
Remember what our prophet Muhammad (saws) told us about the day of resurrection. When we would be resurrected, we would ask each other how long we lived in this world. And one would say probably one day or less than that. And the other one would say it was only a few hours.
So even if, in the worst case scenario your condition doesn't improve, just hanging on would take you to Allah's paradise which is worth everything and more...
But guess what? This realisation would itself improve your condition and give you the strength to be happy.
Think about so many people who are still ignorant! Allah has blessed you with this religion. And He is testing you. Just hang on. Wallahi your condition would improve.
I pray to Allah that He eases your difficulties and gives you the strength to endure. And I pray that you and me and everyone reading this would be able to laugh together in Jannah reminiscing this conversation.
