It’s never too late

O sinner… O transgressor… You are not evil!!

I know you never meant to commit any sin, and you never imagined descending into the abyss.

Your conscience has always been alive, but what has led you astray? Have you suffered from harm, humiliation, degradation, abuse, oppression, expulsion, rejection, deceit, betrayal, favoritism, surveillance, threat, fear, humiliation, and exploitation?

Surely, you must have experienced some or all of these at some point, making you desperate to break the chains that restrain your longing for freedom.

A testament to your humanity and sound nature.

In the moment when the feeling of suffocation and helplessness overwhelmed you, you could no longer bear it.

You made the decision to seek happiness away from impositions.

It took some time because you were tirelessly trying to break the walls imposed on you by those who pretended to love and care for you.

That overwhelming desire for freedom was akin to a tsunami destroying everything in its path.

A boiling cauldron, and its lid was about to fly off.

In those moments of explosion and weakness, you couldn’t listen to the cries of your tormented soul despite your heart’s longing for tranquility and your soul’s yearning for its true nature.

Here, the devil found an opportunity and began to whisper:

“There’s nothing wrong with seeking comfort that doesn’t harm anyone… You are not committing a major sin… You are human, and it’s natural to make mistakes…”

Perhaps, you started this thorny path with innocent actions… you began to sink… then a chance to breathe emerged.

Isn’t it your right to ascend to the surface to fill your lungs with air?

The first step began with the excuse that you are human and prone to error.

Without realizing it, you deviated from the path of God. Your living conscience was in a coma, but your spirit remained alive.

You still prayed, but you didn’t feel it. Even when a ray of spirituality flickered in your heart, it found no refuge in yourself in a way that could change your life.

You and the devil behind you deluded yourselves into thinking that you reached a dead-end road with no return.

You got accustomed to committing forbidden acts… addiction… but inside, you were searching for a way to salvation.

It became a burden weighing on you.

You felt guilty, but you lied to yourself, convincing yourself that God excuses you and that change is impossible. Only a divine miracle could redirect your path.

You continued in the paths of sin until you reached the bottom.

Then, God willed for you to awaken from your negligence, either by casting His light into your heart or through a great calamity that shook you and brought you back to the path of truth.

At that moment, you realized that you had imprisoned your rebellious heart away from your soul for a long time. You look at the whirlpool of the past and ask yourself: ‘How did I do this to myself?’

Then, self-hatred overtakes you, and you look at yourself with disgust.

This is what awaits those who seek to keep you in the depths, reinforcing this feeling because you became a step away from the righteous return journey.

Imagine drowning in turbulent waves, covered by a layer of clouds, alone in the darkness piled upon darkness, in a desolate place with no beloved or friend.

Suddenly, those eternal whispers from a compassionate Lord reach your ears:

‘And whoever does not make Allah his light, for him, there is no light.’

At that moment, you are certain that you are in desperate need of the light of Allah and His support. You have wronged your Creator by committing sins and transgressions.

The time has come for repentance, to return to His path, to taste the bitterness of remorse.

This is a testimony to your sincere faith and sound nature, despite what the entire world may say to the contrary.
