Betrayed in love? Welcome to the club. You trusted him, saw a whole halal future, maybe even imagined your kids’ names, only to be left with heartbreak, betrayal, and probably a few unanswered texts. Now you’re somewhere between dua-ing for justice and considering a dramatic hijrah to another continent.
But before you spiral into a tragic Bollywood montage, let’s talk about what the Quran actually teaches us about handling betrayal, because, sis, you are not alone, and Allah (SWT) has already given us the wisdom to navigate this mess. Let’s break it down.
1. People Will Fail You, But Allah Never Will
You expected loyalty from someone who couldn’t even commit to Friday prayers? Sis, let’s be real. The Quran reminds us:
“…And rely upon Allah; and sufficient is Allah as Disposer of affairs.” (Quran 33:3)
People are flawed. They promise forever and disappear by Fajr. Instead of dwelling on why he did it, shift your energy to Who will never abandon you, Allah. He’s the One who sees your tears, hears your silent prayers, and won’t ghost you when you need Him most.
2. Don’t Seek Revenge, Level Up Instead
Plotting his downfall? Screenshotting evidence for a social media expose? Let it go, sis. Allah has already promised justice:
“…Indeed, Allah loves those who act justly.” (Quran 49:9)
You’re not here to be petty; you’re here to be powerful. The best revenge is glowing up, mentally, spiritually, and (why not?) physically. Get closer to Allah, focus on your goals, and make him regret it the halal way: by being completely unbothered.
3. Pain Is Temporary, But Your Rewards Are Eternal
Right now, it feels like the pain will last forever. But Allah promises relief:
“For indeed, with hardship [will be] ease.” (Quran 94:6)
Every tear you shed is being counted. Every late-night prayer, every whispered “Ya Allah, heal me,” is being heard. And do you know what’s better than closure? Knowing that Allah is preparing something way better for you.
4. Cut the Drama, Keep Your Dignity
It’s tempting to send one last paragraph (or 10) explaining how much he messed up. But, honestly? Silence is louder. The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said:
“The strong person is not the one who can wrestle others. Rather, the strong person is the one who can control themselves when angry.” (Bukhari)
Girl, he knows what he did. He doesn’t need a TED Talk from you. Preserve your dignity, block, delete, and move forward with grace.
5. Trust the Red Flags Next Time (Allah Showed You for a Reason!)
Sis, the signs were there. The mixed signals, the questionable “religious” excuses, the way he suddenly became a scholar when it came to justifying shady behavior. Allah says:
“O you who have believed, fear Allah and be with those who are true.” (Quran 9:119)
Next time, trust the red flags. If a man is inconsistent in his faith, his actions, and his promises, he’s not for you. A man who fears Allah will never play with your heart.
6. Self-Care is Sunnah, Treat Yourself Right
Enough about him, what about you? The Prophet (PBUH) emphasized self-care, and it’s time you do the same. Whether it’s hitting the gym, pampering yourself, or diving into a new hobby, invest in yourself. One way to do this?
