Wa `alaykum As-Salamu wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh

 

No one can decisively inform you that what happens is a punishment from Allah except if you have a Prophet who receives revelation. What happened is a test from Allah either to wipe out sins you had or to raise your status high with Allah.

 

Abu Musa Al-Ash’ari (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:  The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said, “When a man’s child dies, Allah, the Exalted, asks His angels, ‘Have you taken out the life of the child of My slave?’ and they reply in the affirmative. He (SWT) then asks, ‘Have you taken the fruit of his heart?’ and they reply in the affirmative. Thereupon, He asks, ‘What did my slave say?’ They say: ‘He praised You and said: Inna lillahi wa inna ilaihi raji’un (We belong to Allah and to Him we shall return).’ Allah says: ‘Build a house for my slave in Jannah and name it Baitul-Hamd (the House of Praise).”‘

 

 

You must keep yourself patient and just concentrate on patience and asking Allah to compensate you with a better son. May Allah shower all His mercy and tranquility on you and on his mother.

 

Almighty Allah knows best.
