I lost my father five months ago. He had been bedridden for the past one and a half years — completely confined to bed. Over the last year, he became just a skeleton.
I was his caregiver. I tried my best to be with him and provide as much comfort as I could. I was the one who silently took care of everything — from changing his diapers to many other things.
I’ve been through so much. My father’s death has shattered me. But after all this, Allah answered my prayers. My father used to pray for me, even when he was extremely sick.
The good memories I have of him have faded, and only the last two years are stuck in my mind. I can’t get through this. He was in so much pain...
In his final days, I took him to the hospital, and he was admitted. I stayed with him day and night. But the moment I left — just 20 minutes later — he passed away.
Was I not worthy to hold his hand during his last breath? Why didn’t Allah allow me to be there in that moment? Why couldn’t I see him take his last breath?
