Let’s Read Surah Kahf Today
When Grief Overwhelms: What Surah Al-Kahf Teaches Us About Grief
Surah Al-Kahf, Ayah 6, says: "Then perhaps you would kill yourself through grief over them, [O Muhammad], if they do not believe in this message, [and] out of sorrow."
This ayah reflects the deep emotional pain the Prophet ﷺ felt when people rejected guidance, to the point that it affected his mental and emotional well-being.
It shows that even the most beloved of Allah experienced sorrow and distress—not because of personal failure, but because of compassion and concern for others.
For those struggling with depression, this verse is a reminder that feeling grief or sadness does not mean weakness in faith. Even the Prophet ﷺ felt intense emotional pain, yet Allah acknowledged it with gentleness and care.
Depression is real, and Islam validates our emotions while guiding us with mercy toward healing.
