Islamic Parables - Night Worship (Tahajjud) and the States of Those Who Shed Tears

A Tale That Serves as a Beacon of Hope for Those Tested with Loneliness

Ali was a young man lost in the cycle of his life. Living in a rural area, Ali would wake up regularly at midnight to perform the Tahajjud prayer. That night, upon hearing news about the difficult days of an old friend, he was led to pray with a heaviness on his face. Amidst his tears, he turned to his Creator, praying to alleviate the hardships of life. In that moment, all the pessimistic feelings were revealed through those prayers. With his heart finding peace through his tearful intentions, Ali began to pray hopeful prayers for his friend who was going through those tough days and sought refuge in his Creator to bring tranquility. This process transcended merely being a sorrowful being. As Ali's soul transformed through night worship, he found great peace in the prayers he directed while thinking of his friend. Ali managed to ignite the light of hope not only for himself but also for his beloved friend.
