Finding Good In Delay Of A Noble Decision
My husband and I have had a very tough last year in our relationship. It had come to a divorce even. Then I lost my father to cancer in summer this year. I’ve had bad depression and anxiety throughout this whole process but mashallah my husband and I fought through it all together and we’re in a much better place than we have ever been. My anxiety has settled and we decided to go for Umrah next year in February. Tickets were booked too. I’ve been wanting to perform umrah with my husband for a few years now but my husband wasn’t very religious before. This year we both have been closer to Allah and have stronger faith. There is so much I want to ask forgiveness for over and over and especially at the most blessed place. I recently found out that I have breast cancer and because I will be going through treatment for that I won’t be able to perform Umrah as we planned. We will obviously have to delay umrah but it’s what I would like to do as soon I’m well inshallah.My question is, when we make such plans that have nothing but goodness in them (like planning umrah) why do plans like that get delayed? Surely Allah would give us the opportunity to perform it one day but I’m just trying to understand if this a test too?
