Motherhood

Motherhood

Motherhood brings both incomparable joy and profound heartache, not because of the daily tasks, but because of the endless giving it demands. A mother gives of herself—her time, energy, body, and heart—until she feels emptied, yet continues to give. With each child, her life becomes increasingly devoted to the needs of others, often leaving her longing for the spiritual serenity of earlier days. Yet, when Allah opens her heart, she sees that this giving is not in vain—it is worship of the highest kind. 

By raising children who love and worship Allah, she shares in the reward of their every act of devotion, multiplied through generations, without diminishing their own. Even if her children falter, her sincere intention secures her eternal reward. Indeed, many mothers who’ve sacrificed the most often attain the deepest spiritual openings in later years, not through excessive rituals, but through years of selfless sincerity and devotion to others for the sake of Allah.
