Answer
Answer:
As-Salamu ‘Aleikom,
In late teen or early adulthood, it’s normal part of growth and development and normal part of separation from your parents to begin to think about their mortaility as well as your own. At this period of life, we start having families, we are working away from home, we are in collages and universities; and we begin to think about our childhood and not being at home. What’s behind is missing that parental connection as well as realizing that death is inevitable. There is no way getting away from it. From Allah (swt) we came, and to Him (swt) we return.
In this realization, oftentimes, the fear of losing our parents can become a mental health issue, an anxiety that we think about on a daily basis. It is usually normal and taken in a context. Sometimes, it is an opportunity to increase our imaan (faith), to draw closer to Allah (swt), to learn more about Islam and Allah’s (swt) plans for us, in sha’ Allah.
For the rest of the answer, please listen to the video:
Salam,
