That’s it. Do the hard, grinding work, and pray hard - beg of Allah and have faith. Then whatever happens, is certain and is in fact the best possibility. — PolitiTweet.org

My dad said, he prayed for me each night for months. That was the best thing he could do for me. “So if after consistently beseeching God for help, this was the outcome, then even though it may not feel this way at the time, it is indeed the absolute best outcome.” — PolitiTweet.org

An undesired conclusion here is still better than continuing to live on the ledge. — PolitiTweet.org

My mom said, “for months I’ve been worried about the uncertainty of your future. I know you too have been worried about the same. InshaAllah the finality of this will enable you to heal and move forward.” — PolitiTweet.org

What they said next impacted how I have approached many trials since and has reshaped my faith in life’s outcomes. They reminded me, as much as God disliked divorce, it was permissible. People could say what they wanted, but what mattered was that we were right by God. — PolitiTweet.org

I explained further that because they had invested in my education, I was going to be just fine taking care of myself too. Not to worry, I have a job, good friends, and a plan. It would be ok, InshaAllah. They worried nonetheless, but that’s a different story. — PolitiTweet.org

Divorce wasn’t common in my immediate family, none of my North American first cousins had been through it, and I worried I was bringing shame to them. I worried about the stress it would cause them. I worried about what they would worry about it. So I apologized, unsolicited. — PolitiTweet.org
Zahra Billoo @ZahraBilloo
I explained the steps we took, the efforts we made, that I understood the gravity of the circumstances, and at the same time that this was the end of the road. As incredible as my parents are, I was nervous. — PolitiTweet.org
Zahra Billoo @ZahraBilloo
Many months later, despite having done the work we had committed to, and many additional things, divorce nonetheless became inevitable. So I went back to my parents, this time alone, to tell them what had come of everything. — PolitiTweet.org
Zahra Billoo @ZahraBilloo
We drove to Los Angeles, sat down with them, explained our thought process, and the work we were committed to doing to avoid a divorce if possible. We answered their questions, set some boundaries, and asked for their duas. — PolitiTweet.org

As our marriage reached a tipping point in its struggling, my ex-husband and I began to seriously consider divorce. My parents and I had always had a loving, trusting, and communicative relationship and so I knew I needed to tell them. — PolitiTweet.org
Zahra Billoo @ZahraBilloo
However this story about my parents faith and supportiveness has been itching to be told and since I shared it at Being ME - Muslimah Empowered Calgary this weekend, I’m posting it as well. InshaAllah it is of benefit. — PolitiTweet.org

Telling stories about my Minder Apping experiences isn’t easy, but it is lighter. It’s less often that I speak or write about my experience with divorce. — PolitiTweet.org

Dear @AndrewYang—Muslim voters have noticed your silence when it comes to the Muslim Ban. But the stakes are too high. #DemDebate is your chance to fix this. Give us a clear answer: will you stand with Muslims & #RepealTheBan on the first day of your presidency? — PolitiTweet.org
