Greetings and peace be with you xa_xa,
I think heartbreak like this is probs the worst thing you can go through but the swiftes way to get closer to allah.
To have your heart broken is terrible, it will either make you angry and destroy you over the next fifty years of your life, or you find ways to let go.
i have alot of hatred in my heart for this man (not good i know)
People have the right to be angry, but it is how you deal with your anger that will help you ease the pain in life.
I listened to Glen tell his story, he had been signed up to play football with Leighton Orient, alongside David Beckham. He had an exciting life ahead of him, but he was stabbed in the back shortly after, he has now been paralysed from the waist down for the last 27 years. They caught the man who did this, he served four years in prison, he was then able to walk out of prison on his own two feet, and justice had been served.
By this time, Glen had learned to drive a disabled taxi, he learned where his assailant lived, and then stalked him with the intention of running him over. Glen said at that point he came to understand that true justice could not happen. Justice is not that two people should be crippled, rather, it is that neither of them should be crippled. He knew this could never happen, he came to understand that he had to let go of his hatred. If not, he would become worse than his assailant, because his actions would be premeditated.
He said he had to live with two diseases, being crippled, and the greater disease was the hate burning away inside him. Forgiveness and letting go of the hatred was a gradual process, his wheelchair has been a daily reminder of his past anger.
I just hope Allah makes him pay for his wrong too
After we heard Glen's story in Manchester Cathedral, he was with us when we were asked to say a blessing and we were to keep in mind all the people that had hurt us, and who we had to forgive as we recited the words below..
Now may the peace of the Lord be with you, be with you
May the Lord bless you
May the Lord keep you
And may God's face shine upon you always
And give you peace
In the spirit of striving to forgive
