As we are human beings, we have been created with emotions in us; we feel hurt, pain, anger and also happiness. This is natural because this is who we really are. So it is ok to feel sad and down sometimes in life because even our prophet (saw) felt sadness over the loss of his beloved wife Khadija r.a and his uncle, but the question is,where does this sadness lead us to? To the path of Allaah or down the wrong path? As for some of us,when we get hurt or even when things dont work out our way we become depressed and instead of seeking Allahs help we lose trust in Him. We get the feeling like how could He do this to me,why me? And as a consequence we lose faith in Him and turn away from His door. On the other hand, if pain and difficulty leads you to seek Allahs help and confine in Him then there is nothing to worry about. If your pain and sorrow makes you call out to your Lord in a more pleading way, make you cling onto Him and become closer to Him, then know for sure that this sadness was a means to get you closer to Allaah swt. Everything can be a means to get you closer to Allaah swt even our emotions. So what we need to do is learn to control our emotions,our emotions should not be in control over us. So we need to use this emtion to get back to Allaah az wa jal Sometimes Allah afflicts a person with pain so that He may come to the path of Allaah. Therefore, no matter how hard life becomes we should never lose our trust in Him. We should always remain patient and cling onto His rope. Allaah tests those that He loves and verily with hardship comes ease.
