Do you feel stuck in a hard season, where hope feels far away? This sabr poetry is a gentle reminder that the same God who made the night will bring the morning too. Every closed door and every quiet tear is part of a bigger plan — one that ends in light, not darkness.
O heart, wait a little, hold firmly the hem of hope
The Lord who has created the night, will also bring the morning, there will be dawn again
The eye that sheds tears today, can also smile tomorrow
The fate that stands silent today, can be filled with joys tomorrow
When some doors close, paths do not end
Sometimes the Lord stops us, because His decisions are never wrong
Just break down and weep before Him, tell Him every sorrow of yours
If people cannot understand the heart, then tell your condition to the Lord
Because when a human says
O Allah
Now I cannot bear it
Then mercy slowly says, do not worry, I am still here
