The dua was beautifully expressed. The feeling of waking up for Tahajjud is truly a special one. May Allah guide us to find our path in life and fulfill the purpose He placed us here for.

I pray Allah makes it easy for you! He truly is. sometimes we just need to let Him take care of things than wanting to control everything. Just focus on the present and let Him guide you through the coming days/months/years! i pray we all make it through amin 💗

Allah is Al-Baseer and As-Samee’, always watching over us and hearing every unspoken word in our hearts. Stay strong. His plans are always full of wisdom, even when we can’t see it yet. May Allah guide you and all of us through every rough patch with ease and wisdom.
