Tears Of Summayah - Episode 55

 

If life was free of trials and tests, would we be able to give gratitude to our creator?

We should all know life is full of tests and the best thing is to go back to Allah, the All-Overseer. You think you are living the worst life? Try to look deeper into the world, then you would know your problem is not even up to the quarter of what others face. 

Fine, we all have problems but don't let it take over you. Learn to be grateful and say Alhamdulilah for everything you have. 

That family you complain of everytime is what others pray for because they have been taken by Allah . It is not because you are better in anyway or they wronged Him in anyway, it is how Allah has planned it for them. 

Learn to say Alhamdulilah in every situation you find yourself. Learn to tell your soul that everything that happens is for the best and the hereafter is our final destination where we would all be among the dwellers of Jannah, In sha Allah.

Remember, DUNYA is temporary. 
DUNYA is an illusion. 

May He ease all our affairs. 

Ameen.

Summayah laid quietly and couldn't think of what direction her life was heading to. She thought she was actually free but they came back to her life, today she had feared them the moment she set her eyes on Jamiu

. Now, she was all over the internet. She wouldn't be able to walk around because that little hope she had, has been destroyed today.  She would be the center of discussion, all she needs to do is build her own walls. 

(Her thoughts were interrupted by the sound of the door, she jerked up looking at the person that entered, she was relieved it was Nurse khair who was here for nothing else other than to gossip.) 

Nurse Khair:Summayah, how are you doing?

Summayah:Alhamdulilah.

Nurse khair:Are you sure you are okay? 

Summayah:Yes i am. 

(She continued with the treatments for Summayah, she continued her conservation after minutes of silence.) 

Nurse khair:So you are okay after all the disgrace and humiliation you faced today? You are strong o, do you know a lot of people have watched it. In fact, it is trending on social medias.

Summayah:Really?

Nurse khair:Yes. Do you want to see? 

summayah:(She contemplated on watching it or not, then she nodded her head.Nurse khair brought out her smart phone, pressing her password_her phone showed the video after she gave it to Summayah meaning she just finished watching before coming to her. Summayah looked at the headline and tears filled her eyes, the video was trending, she read it out loud.)
A Disabled Hijabite Was Disgraced In The Public On Eid Day By Her Husband  For Committing Zina (Adultery) With A Well Known Widower. 

Summayah:This is not true. (She watched the video, looking at it made her feel disgusted with herself. She is already a living corpse, there was nothing left for her after the scandal. Looking at the comments sections, she couldn't believe what people said about her.)

We know this kind of girls. 

I can't believe what this life is even turning into. 

That guy that saved her must be the father of the child, shameless people. 

Look at their age difference ooo, married woman is still having extra marital affair. Chai, baba God help us o. 

She must have done it for a few naira notes.

Why are all of una dey comment like this, you don't know the whole story ooo. Nigerians with their own assumptions sha. 

She must have deserved it for the guy to react like that. They will satisfy some girls and they will still look for what is not missing. Is this guy not handsome enough for her to stay glued. 

Northerners have no shame with the way they marry their children off to some guy. 

Weytin we no go see for naija. I hope she enjoys the beating, this will teach others a lesson. 

I know this doctor, didn't know he is capable of doing this. After God, i fear man. 

I feel for this girl, so unlucky. 

Abeg enjoy his money, i guess he is richer than your first husband. 

I don't know why girls of nowadays don't like to suffer with a guy, all they want is to see ready made man that they can swindle.

I never know say people with incomplete body dey do this oo, on top say you no get leg, you still dey do nonsense with older guys. I wonder how the doctor like this girl. She pretty sha, i will love to have her to myself too. 

Summayah couldn't read other comments, she dropped the phone and luckily it didn't have any crack after it landed on the floor. Summayah had already picked a scissor and hid it while the nurse tried to pick up her phone. She buried her face in her hand and cried bitterly. 

Summayah:I didn't do anything for money. 

Nurse khair:I told you the other day and all doctor uthman did was blame me while he was the real culprit. I wonder what he sees in you when other doctors and nurses tried so many ways to seduce him and he rejected them all. I don't know why guys are so cruel, they act as if they gentle but deep down ehhn. 

Summayah:(All his words echoed in her ear) I hate myself right now, i just want to close my eyes and not wake up to see all this stress. Everybody will be okay when i am gone, they will be relieved. 

Nurse khair:Summayah, you will be fine. I hope you get the justice you deserve. Dr Uthman needs to be punished. Your baby... 

Summayah:Dont talk about my baby, she is innocent. I have shamed her while she is not even born. Please, just leave. What you all say is that i will be fine when i can never be, i hate that word_just leave me because i can never be fine again. 

Nurse khair:Just...

Summayah:(She shouted) Just leave me alone, it is suffocating. I want to be here all by myself. 

(Nurse khair moved out of the ward feeling agitated.Summayah removed the scissors and all sorts of thoughts clouded her mind.) 

Summayah 1:Just cut your wrist, trust me you will forget all this pain you are feeling. You will only feel the pain in some minutes and you can finally rest because you would close your eyes forever with no problems.

Summayah 2:This is not right, you think this is the end? By killing your self for this world that is just an illusion. You can't be in this world without this trials, He is only testing you, you have to be strong. Sabr, my dear. 

Summayah 1:Trust me, this is the best solution to your problem. You wouldn't want to miss that moment when you finally close your eyes and everything is shut down, that is when they can all keep shut and regret what they have done and said. Just listen to me and do what you have to do before anyone comes in. This is your chance. 

Summayah 2:
Try to remember this verses as a believer;
Surah Al-Inshirah, Verse 5:Surely with difficulty is ease.

(English - Shakir)

Surah Al-Inshirah, Verse 6:With difficulty is surely ease.

(English - Shakir)

He wouldn't burden you more than you can bear. 

Summayah 1:Why was He when you faced all this problems, the molestation. Why didn't He save you when you were raped, where was He then. It is all a lie, He doesn't exist. 

Summayah 2:Remember, the life growing inside you. You will be questioned on the life you have taken which was not given to you on your own will but by His grace and mercy. Just remember the torment in the grave before the day of reckoning, you will be questioned for your soul and that of the growing feotus. You wouldn't want to trade the pain you are going through right now with the one you can never imagine how it is. This is just a test, you will surely get through if you get back to Him and cry. 

Summayah 1:Just do it, do it. Listen to me right now. It is the only solution you have now. 

Summayah 2:Remember this hadith:

The Prophet (blessings and peace of Allaah be upon him) said: “No pain, hardship, sickness or grief befalls a believer, not even worry that befalls him, but some of his bad deeds will be expiated.” Narrated by al-Bukhaari (5642) and Muslim (2573).

It was narrated that Jundub ibn ‘Abd-Allaah (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allaah (blessings and peace of Allaah be upon him) said: “A man among those who came before you was wounded. He panicked and took a knife and cut his hand, and the bleeding did not stop until he died. Allaah, may He be glorified and exalted, said: ‘My slave hastened his death; I have forbidden Paradise to him.” Narrated by al-Bukhaari (3276) and Muslim (113).

Remember, no matter how severe the pain you are experiencing now, if you commit suicide then you will be facing a lot more. Will this people be there to save you from the wrath of jahannam? No, they won't because you did it yourself and remember suicide is a major sin in Islam. 

Remember, the Prophets have faced a lot more and they became successful in this world and hereafter because they were patient with their creator, they understood everything happens with His knowledge. 

Have you ever thought His plans for you were wrong? 

Have you ever felt you didn't get to feel His blessing?  You have to stay strong for yourself and go back to Allah, He is the only one that can give you peace if you talk directly to Him. Cry your eyes out, He listens to everything. 

Remember, those people that you have made happy, your plans for them. You can do great things if you are patient. Be. Patient. 

Summayah was holding the scissor ready to cut her wrist. 

Summayah 1:(Feeling happy) Yes. Yes. You can do it. Just close your eyes, it will lessen your sorrow. You will be valued if you do it, you will be the bravest girl. 

Summayah 2:Summayah, I love you and i want the best for us. Think about those that love you. Allah has better plan for you. Listen to me, please. Your baby should not be denied the permission to live because of you, don't kill her. You have made promises to keep her safe, you even endured a lot for her and when she already has a life and waiting for that day to see this beautiful face of that woman that kept her safe, you want to end it? Don't you want to see her smile at you?

You don't want to see her and feel like you have been given the priceless gift on earth? 

A lot of women are praying for a child or for the doctor to just tell them they are pregnant for a day and you are here trying to kill her off. Remember that day you will be accountable for everything. Just imagine how your baby will be a given a chance and she will pray for you. 

(Summayah cried out and dropped the scissors. She has already forgotten the favors of her Lord. She allowed herself to think about suicide.)

Summayah 1:You have listened to me instead. Enjoy your pain.

Summayah:Just leave me alone, please. (She shouted) Let me go.

(Hadizah entered her ward,she wondered why she was shouting. She hugged her tightly and let her cry her heart out.) 

Hadizah:You need to let it out. 

Summayah:Mother...i don't know i am anymore. I'm not the same person, i am just a weak girl that wants to end it all. 

Hadiza:You are not weak, my daughter is strong and we can get through this together. Don't mind what the internet people say, they have always been there to mock people. 

Summayah:Everyone saw my body, Jamiu has made me a laughing stock. I can't even step out this room without being talked about. 

Hadiza:(She tried to hold her tears but she couldn't.)Summayah...I...Understand...Your...Pain. 

Summayah:You...can...not...understand. You...just...can't. 

Hadizah:Summayah, you can't give up at this moment. Please, you have to be happy for yourself. You have to choose to be happy, love yourself. 

Summayah:How can i? My child will be rejected by everyone and will be tagged with awful names just because of my own mistake of being a bad mother. It will surely affect her. 

Hadizah:Summayah, please stop punishing yourself like this. It is not good for your health. You can't continue like this, your health will deteriorate. Please, we can talk this through and get a solution. 

Summayah:Everything is ruined. I... (She started feeling dizzy, her head was blank, she fainted in her hadiza's hand) 

(Hadizah went out rushing to get Dr Maryam. She met her on the way and they both rushed to see her.) 

Hadizah:(She couldn't keep calm, she paced around the room checking Summayah every minutes while Maryam examined her.) How is she? 

Dr Maryam:She will be fine, In sha Allah. Just pray. (She was done and Summayah's health was back to normal, she gently took Hadizah's hand in hers and they walked out) Please ma'am, you should not bring up any talk regarding the incident,Summayah is not able to take in everything that has just happened. 

Hadizah:She was crying when i walked in. 

Dr Maryam:I pray she gets better, i will give her a close monitoring. Always be by her side. Just give her love, talk sweetly, that is the only thing she needs. Take away anything that triggers her memory. 

Hadizah:Thank you so much. I will do as you have said. 

Dr Maryam:Thank you so much for standing by her. 

Hadizah:You don't have to thank me, i am doing my duty as a mother. 

(She walked away while Hadizah walked back into the ward. She couldn't stop the tears from flowing knowing that Summayah is feeling suffocated with all this.) 

Hadizah:Allah, you ease the pain of your servants_help ease the pain of my daughter. Give her the happiness in this world and hereafter, make her bad deeds expiated. Ameen.
