Whenever I feel sick,I think of my sins being removed. I feel myself being purified. I think of gold and iron that are heated till they turn liquid and throw out the impurities they have. I learnt that in my highschool grades,but never thought a sickness to be a metallurgical process.SubhanAllah.How merciful our Rabb is ,He blesses us through our suffering. I feel awed with His majesty, that even if we suffer a prick of thorn He removes some of our sins. Our suffering is a blessing. Whenever I get tired of the pain and uneasiness I remember Allah's promise, with every hardship,there's ease. How wonderful it is, infact it helps us get recovered soon, if we feel positive about our sickness. Our fever, cold, aches are are indeed a blessing in disguise. Of course I will never ask for them, but if they are decreed in my way, I would embrace them happily as they are a means of my purification. Alhamdulillah.
So now, no matter how long my nose flows, I have a bigger handkerchief. 😁
