Waalaikum Salam warahmatullahi wabarakatuh 🌼 Your pain is valid, and Allah knows the depths of what you’re carrying. Islam places high importance on family ties, but *not at the cost of your well-being, dignity, or mental health*. *Walking away is not sinful* if: - You’ve exhausted all efforts to reconcile or improve the situation. - Staying is causing you serious emotional, psychological, or physical harm. - You still maintain respectful, basic contact without hostility (if possible). Allah does not burden a soul beyond what it can bear (Surah Al-Baqarah 2:286). *Protecting your heart and mental well-being is not selfish — it’s survival.* *Suggestions:* - Seek help from a trusted scholar or counselor. - If needed, create distance with respect — not hate. - Make dua: *“O Turner of the hearts, make my heart firm upon Your Deen.”* You are not alone. May Allah bring you relief, strength, and healing. Ameen.
