I saw pictures of a man who allegedly killed his mother because she refused to give him money to travel abroad. He reportedly pushed her downstairs and she died from the fall. This reminded me of a friend I visited a few days ago. He was the last son of his mother, and she recently passed away after an illness. I visited him to condole and sympathize with him and his family. That night, we slept in the same room. Around 2 a.m., he woke up and prayed two raka’at before going back to bed. Before he slept, I heard him crying because he missed his mother. This is a man with five children, yet he cried deeply over the loss of his mother. I did not know what to say to him that night because he thought I was asleep, so I decided to let him cry and pour out his emotions. Maybe it gave him some relief. Sadly, somewhere else, someone took away his own mother’s life with his bare hands. SubhanAllah. May Allah grant her paradise and grant us all a good ending.
