Checking out of rehab

We go to rehab to help us deal with a problem. But this is the thing about rehab, the easy part is the rehabilitation.

The hardest part is checking out, and getting back into the environment that made you need rehab.

We have begged for forgiveness, but that’s the easy part. When we repent, we are saying we aren’t returning to the sin.

But again, that’s the hard part.

The easy part is Ramadan, abstaining from the things, the people, the places that displease Allah. The hard part is going back to our normal settings and still doing the same.

Its not going to be easy, but with the help of Allah, we can.

Say, Allahumma innakka afuwwun, tuhibul afuwwa, fa-afuwanna.

The mistakes are mine and Allah knows best.
