I went to visit my sister who was crying

I mangage to get out to see the sister who has been crying for 2.5yrs now, isolated and lonely in her shell. Almost abandoned , the visit i felt was a great sucess for all , another sister Emma (not real name), went with me , who herself has and is suffering. Why are the sisters suffering so much in Algeria? There is no support in place and Algeria can be a pretty lonely place esp for the ex pat community , who have a different culture and no family support, often no friends. The emman subsides and that opens a way for shatan to have a ever tightening hold on the person. Lonelyness is a state of illness, that hurts. Ever felt your surrounded by so many people but your still lonely? your emman is still low? We all need encouragement and good role models esp when we feel we are no more....................

Assalaamu alaikum,

Alhamdu lillah you made it over to visit the sister - insha'Allah the visits and phone calls will make a difference.

Subhan Allah it is so true what you say that you can be surrounded by people and yet still be lonely. Adjusting to a new country and a new way of life can be really difficult.

May Allah reward you and may He make matters easy for the sister. Ameen.
