what choice do you have? fortunately, you have a daughter who needs you.
sometimes when we are in great pain, God seems very far away. this is when we need him the most, but something in us has blocked him.
have you lost faith in islam, or have you lost faith in life and in your ability to cope with it?
i don't know what you're going through but you are obviously suffering and feeling abandoned by God and everyone. many people have been where you are now. believe it or not, it does pass and things do get better.
don't lose hope - you can't afford to as a mother. giving up is not an alternative.
i hope you will find help and support while you are going through whatever it is that is happening in your life.

The people who suffer the most in this life are the anbiya Prophets alay salaam. Then those after them then those after them. Look and read at Prophet (saw) life and compare it to yours...No comparision at all. When I am distressed I always repeat "With hardship comes many ease, with hardship comes many ease" Then I say life is short and the ease will come sooner than expected. It does make me feel better. Just do what the Prophet (saw) did when he was in major distress he turned to his Creator for help immediate either through dhikr or salaah. That is what brought ease in his life. That should bring ease to all of our lives. Read Sura balaad and get a tafsir of that Sura. In that Surah it says "Indeed we have created humans in toil/distress." What does that mean? Why did Allah (swt) do that?

Read begining of sura Ankabut...we all be tested eventually to see separate the true believers from the liars.

If that all does not work look at all the wonderful things Allah (swt) gave you and be grateful for that. Look at people who have less than you and that will really wake you up. Gratitude can change your whole life 180 degrees. True Gratitude is amazing feeling that our Prophet (saw) always experienced. Gratitude is even linked to Kaffar (disbelief) which is what you are falling towards, unfortunately. I could say a lot more but I try to make it short. May Allah (swt) guide you, make your heart firm upon his deen, and increase you in gratitiude...ameen.

Change the way you view life.

Forget EVERYTHING for a moment. Forget any problem that you are having, forget it all and think.

1400 years ago, a man, claiming to be a prophet came and taught that this world is only temporary and that there is life after death.

This is a belief that muslims should hold dear, that everything in this world is not to last. All material, as well as immaterial, intangible stuff, like happiness, sadness, grief, depression, it will all vanish.

The only thing that you will take with you to the hereafter are you deeds.

Work on that. Live you life according to that. Your MAIN purpose in life is to worship Allah, to prevent yourself from being chucked into hell and to attain paradise.

About pain and suffering. I tell you from experience, that the best way to overcome ANYthing, is to forget about it. Adopt a 'don't care' attitude. Don't spend hours and hours worrying yourself into a pit. If you've had a bad life, don't relive it, just forget about it, completely.

The trick is, to forget it all and surrender all your troubles to Allah swt. If a person is in so much trouble in life, such that he doesn't know to do, the BEST solution, is to leave everything in the hands of Allah swt and do your obligatory deeds, while hoping that Allah will sort everything out for you.

Tawakkul is a major thing in Islam. It means trusting in Allah. We have to realise that we have very very finite understandings of anything, Allah swt knows everything, he knows what's good for us, he knows what troubles us...so then, if you surrender everything to him, are doing what he's asking you and being sincere, why won't he help you?

Trust me sister...I've been in a place where everything seemed so dark. There was no light, everything seemed impossible. Believe me on this. I wasn't a practicing muslim at the time. Everything went out of hand, I didn't know what to do.

I ended up surrendering all my problems to Allah...I stopped caring about anything. Nothing meant anything. Everything in this world seemed meaningless. I gained more and more trust in Allah, dua increased my trust. Things that seemed impossible, were accomplished. Alhamdulilah.

So, what I'm trying to say sis, is that you should FORGET your troubles, ALL of them completely...then, place your FULL trust in Allah swt and live your life. You will, inshaAllah, see the impossible become possible.

Some hadith which may help you:


Quote:
TESTS FOR THE BELIEVERS
FLUCTUATIONS OF LIFE
From :- The Inevitable Journey: Sickness, Death, and the Grave

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A person's life in this world is not stable. One passes through alternating periods of happiness and dismay, strength and weakness. wealth and povert, health and sickness etc. A true believer is one who maintains a clear level of Eemaan throughout the wordly fluctuations. He continues to remember Allah and ascribe the bounties to Him; and he turns to Him in submission, asking for relief from his affliction. This is described by the Messenger (Sallallahu `Alayhi Wa Sallam) who said:

"Indeed amazing are the affairs of a believer ! They are all for his benefit; if he is granted ease of living he is thankful; and this is best for him. And if he is afflicted with a hardship, he perseveres; and this is best or him." [Muslim]
And Allah (SubHanahu Wa Ta`ala) said (which means);

"Certainly, We shall test you with fear, hunger, loss of wealth, lives and fruits; but give glad tidings to the patient - those who, when afflicted with calamity say, "Truly to Allah we belong, and truly to Him shall we return." It is those who will be awarded blessings and mercy from their Lord; and it is those who are the guided ones." [2:155-157]

Thus, a believer shows gratitude and thankfulness for all the wonderful blessings that Allah grants him. And he displays patience and submission during sickness and hardships, hunger, or other afflictions.

HARDSHIPS BENEFIT THE BELIEVER
Allah has decreed that, in this life, hardships and disasters strike both believers and non-believers. For a non-believer, they are inconveniences that hinder him from proceeding with his normal involvment in the wordly life. For a believer, on the other hand, they are instances of rest and rememberance, tests that promise great rewards, and indications of atonment and expiation of sins. Regardless of how little is the harm that strikes a believer, it carries with it good news of forgivness and elevated rank (in Jannah). The Righteous Predecessors used to be pleased when a hardship afflicted them, seeing it as a token of Allah's forgiveness and benevolence.

EXPIATION OF SINS
Abu Hurayrah (Radhiallahu `anhu) reported that the Prophet(Sallallahu `Alayhi Wa Sallam) said:
"Hardships continue to befall a believing man and woman in their body, family, and property, until they meet Allah (SubHanahu Wa Ta`ala) burdened with no sins." [Tirmithee]

SIGN OF ALLAH'S LOVE
Abu Hurayrah (Radhiallahu `anhu) reported that the Prophet (Sallallahu `Alayhi Wa Sallam) said:
" Whenever Allah wills good for a person, He subjects him to adversity" [Bukharee and others]

SIGN OF EEMAN
Abu Hurayrah (Radhiallahu `anhu) and Ka'b Bin Maalik (Radhiallahu `anhu) reported that the Prophet (Sallallahu `Alayhi Wa Sallam) said:
"The parable of a believer is that of a fresh and moist plant; the wind tilts it this way and that way; and so is the believer; he continues to be subject to affliction. And the parable of a hypocrite is that of a firm cedar tree; it does not shake - until it is uprooted all at once." [Bukharee and Muslim]

SIGN OF RIGHTEOUSNESS
The prophets and righteous people are afflicted the most, and their rewards are the highest. Sa'd (Radhiallahu `anhu) reporeted that the Prophet (Sallallahu `Alayhi Wa Sallam) said:
"The most in their suffering among the people are the prophets, then the best, then the (next) best. One is afflicted in accordance with his deen (faith). If his deen is firm his affliction is hard, and if his deen is weak, his affliction is light. Indeed, one would be so much subjected to adversity until he walks among the people without any sins. " [Ahmad, Tirmithee]

EARLY PUNISHMENT
Anas (Radhiallahu `anhu) reported that the Prophet (Sallallahu `Alayhi Wa Sallam) said:
"When Allah wills good for a servant of His, He expedites his punishment in this life; and when He wills retribution for a servant of His, He holds his sins for Him to judge him by them on the Day of Resurrection." [Tirmithee]

MULTIPLICATION OF REWARDS
Anas (Radhiallahu `anhu) reported that the Prophet (Sallallahu `Alayhi Wa Sallam) said:
"The amount of reward is in accordance with the amount of suffering. When Allah (SubHanahu Wa Ta`ala) loves some people, He tries them (with affliction). He who then is content (with Allah's decree) has achieved the acceptance (of Allah), and he who is dissatisfied (with Allah's decree) will attain the anger (of Allah)." [Tirmithee]

REWARDS FOR SICKNESS
One should not look to sickness as a gloomy episode, but should remember the great good in it. It is one form of affliction with which Allah (SubHanahu Wa Ta`ala) tests His 'ibaad (servants), giving them a chance to aquire rewards, as was explained above, as is further emphasized below.

REMOVAL OF SINS AND ELEVATION IN RANKS
Abu Hurayrah (Radhiallahu `anhu) reported that the Prophet (Sallallahu `Alayhi Wa Sallam) said:

"Whenever a Muslim is afflicted by harm from sickness or other matters, Allah will drop his sins because of that, like a tree drops its leaves." [Bukharee and Muslim]

Abu Sa'eed al-Khudree (Radhiallahu `anhu) reported that the Prophet (Sallallahu `Alayhi Wa Sallam) said:
"A muslim is not afflicted by hardship, sickness, sadness, worry, harm, or depression - even if pricked by a thorn, but Allah expiates his sins because of that." [Bukharee and Muslim]

Sa'eed said, "I was with Salmaan (Radhiallahu `anhu) when he visited a sick man in Kindah (in Persia), and he said to him: 'Expect good because Allah (SubHanahu Wa Ta`ala) makes a believer's sickness an expiation (for his sins) and a period of rest. However, when a disbeliever falls sick, he is like a camel whose owner ties it then lets it loose - it does not understand why it was tied nor why it was freed.'" [Bukharee]

'Aishah (Radhiallahu `anha) narrated that once some pain afflicted the Prophet (Sallallahu `Alayhi Wa Sallam) causing him to suffer and turn about in his bed. she said: "Had one of us done this, you would have blamed him." He (Sallallahu `Alayhi Wa Sallam) replied:
"An ailment is intensified for the righteous. Whenever a believer is afflicted by a hardship, whether it is a thorn or more, a sin is taken off from him because of it, and he is elevated by one rank (in Jannah). " [Ahmad]

RETAINING REWARDS FOR DEEDS BEFORE SICKNESS
Usually, when a believer falls sick, he would not be able to do the same amount of good (prayer, fasting, helping Muslims etc.) that he used to do when he was well. But Allah out of His great mercy, continues to record for him the good deeds that he was forced to stop because of his sickness. Abu Moosa Al-Ash'aree narrated that the Prophet (Sallallahu `Alayhi Wa Sallam) said:

"For a travelling or sick person, his deeds will be recorded in accordance with what he used to do when he was resident or well." [Bukharee]
'Abdullah Bin 'Amr reported that the Prophet (Sallallahu `Alayhi Wa Sallam) said:

"No (believing) person gets sick, but (his deeds) will be recorded for him in accordance with what he used to do when he was well." [Bukharee]
Anas (Radhiallahu `anhu) reported that the Prophet (Sallallahu `Alayhi Wa Sallam) said:

"No muslims body is afflicted by Allah, but He will record (his deeds) for him in accordance with what he used to do when he was well - as long as he is sick. Thus, if He takes his life, He forgives him; and if He cures him, He washes him (from sins)." [Bukharee]
'Uqbah Bin 'Aamir reported that the Prophet (Sallallahu `Alayhi Wa Sallam) said:

"Each days deeds are sealed with it. Thus, when a believer gets sick, the angels say, 'Our lord! Your servant such and such, You have restrained him (from doing good this day).' And the lord replies, 'Seal his day in acordance with his (usual) deeds, until he is cured or dies.'" [Ahmad]

REASON FOR THE REWARD
'Atta Bin Rabaah reported that ibn 'abbaas (Radhiallahu `anhu) told him, "Do you want to see a woman from the people of Jannah (paradise)?" He said "Yes." He said: "It is this black woman. She came to the Prophet (Sallallahu `Alayhi Wa Sallam) saying, "I have (epileptic) seizures, and I get exposed, so supplicate to Allah for me." He (Sallallahu `Alayhi Wa Sallam) said:
"If you wish, be patient and you will attain Jannah; or if you wish, I will ask Allah to cure you."

She replied, "I will be patient ! But my body gets exposed (because of the fall), so supplicate to Allah for me that I do not become exposed." And he (Sallallahu `Alayhi Wa Sallam) did." [Bukharee and Muslim]

The scholars have differed in opinion as to whether a sick person will be rewarded for the sickness itself or for being patient during it. The correct opinion is that if he is patient and submits to Allah's will, as in the above hadeeth, he would be rewarded for both the submission and the sickness, otherwise, he would not be rewrded at all; because he resented Allah's decree. This is what should be understood from Ibn hajar al -'Asqalaanees words:

"The authentic hadeeths are clear in that the rewards are recorded once affliction strikes a Muslim. As for patience and acceptance, they are virtues for which a person may get additional rewards over those for the affliction."
'Abdullah Bin 'Amr reported that the Prophet (Sallallahu `Alayhi Wa Sallam) said:

"If a Muslim is pricked by (as little as) a thorn in the wordly life, and he seeks its reward from Allah, some of his sins will be removed, because of it, on the Day of Judgement." [Bukharee]

I heard Allah's Apostle (Sal-allahu-aleihi-wasallam) saying, "Allah said, 'If I deprive my slave of his two beloved things (i.e., his eyes) and he remains patient, I will let him enter Paradise in compensation for them."
Narrated by Anas bin Malik (Razi Allah Ta'lah Anhu); Sahih Bukhari transmitted it. Vol 7:#557 of Sahih Bukhari.


Allah's Apostle (Sal-allahu-aleihi-wasallam) said: "Strange are the ways of a believer for there is good in every affair of his and this is not the case with anyone else except in the case of a believer for if he has an occasion to feel delight, he thanks (God), thus there is a good for him in it, and if he gets into trouble and shown resignation (and endures it patiently), there is a good for him in it".

Narrated by Suhaib ibn Sinan ar-Rumi (Razi Allah Ta'lah Anhu); Muslim transmitted it. Hadith No.5297 of Mishkat al-Masabih.
Allah's Apostle (Sal-allahu-aleihi-wasallam) said, "If Allah wants to do good to somebody, He afflicts him with trials."
Narrated by AbuHurayrah (Razi Allah Ta'lah Anhu); Sahih Bukhari transmitted it. Vol 7:#548 of Sahih Bukhari.
Remember, this world is nothing compared to the hereafter. On the day of judgement, everybody's eyes will be opened and they will see that this world constituted only a day or a part of a day, of the real time. Something to think about, that might put things in perspective for you.

Sorry about any spelling/grammar mistakes.

Uncontrollable tears = stronger sincereity for help from Creator = coming closer to Creator when help does arrive....patience Sister patience. Definitely seek some counsel and help from people and know that in the end is for those who are conscious of thier Lord so keep firm in deen....and be aware of the hereafter after the temporary life.

Your daughter is looking up to you as an example and she needs you to stay strong. The purpose of dhikr and salaah is to make us into better people who set best standard for our offspring. Through this adverse times you will be a better person and gain rather than lose if you remain strong and patient...if you don't your daughter will be lost as well.

Oh yeah. Trusting in Allah means knowing that he has FULL control over every LITTLE thing and can make the impossible become possible. This is something that you really need to embed into thought process. So, each time you come across a difficult situation, instead of feeling low and pessimistic, your trust in Allah's ability to alleviate you from any problem will and should give you optimism!

Sis...I can understand that.

What I'm trying to say, is that if you're in such a bad place, such that you've been pushed to the edge, and have wanted to commit suicide. It must mean that you've reached the point where you've just stopped caring? What I want you to do, instead of focusing on killing yourself...end your material life. Stop everything and SURRENDER yourself TOTALLY to Allah. Forget about this world, renounce it totally. Live for Allah's sake. Then, any problem you have, will mean nothing.

Wipe away your tears, think well of your lord and chase away the worries by remembering the bessings that Allah (SWT) has put upon you.
Be optimistic sister, for Allah (SWT) is with you, and the angels are praying forgiveness for you, and paradise awaits you.
