REDHA MINUTE OF SYAWAL IN LOSS
By: Saidatul Aqma Abd Halim
Hari Raya Aidilfitri is celebrated with joy, gathering with family members in a lively atmosphere. This also includes a special meal on the morning of Syawal as a moment that is eagerly awaited every year.
For single children, parents are everything. Losing a loved one also means losing a place of reference, love and support that has been a pillar of strength in life.
Welcoming Syawal without a mother and father is a lesson that love and togetherness are blessings that are too precious to be taken for granted. Memories with them become a source of inspiration, while prayers become an unbroken link.
This experience reminds us that sadness is not to weaken the heart, but to strengthen the soul, instill perseverance, and teach the meaning of being content with Divine destiny.
More than that, Syawal without a mother and father teaches that true happiness is not just about luxurious food or new clothes, but about appreciating existing relationships, instilling love, and maintaining perseverance in facing life.
Every prayer that is offered becomes a continuous gift for the mother and father in the next world, as a sign of love and appreciation that never fades. In facing this loss, the strength of the heart is the key. Life goes on, and every moment that exists should be appreciated with gratitude.
The test of losing a mother and father reminds us that every bitter and sweet experience is part of the journey of life that shapes us to be more mature, patient, and ready to face future challenges.
Syawal, which is passed without their presence, invites deep reflection so that every person needs to appreciate their mother and father while they are still there, express love in every relationship, and maintain a contented heart in facing the trials of life.
Let longing be a source of strength, sadness be a guide, and prayer be a love relationship that never breaks.
This experience teaches us that Syawal is not just a celebration, but a time to reflect, be grateful, and strengthen the values ​​of family, patience, and perseverance, making love and contentment a guide in every step of life.
