Assalamalaikum. For a few years now my mother has not spoken to me. Well, we werent close at all in the first place but something happened a few years ago after which she totally cut off and refuses to acknowledge my existence. I still occasionally take the kids to see her but I am ignored. I know we made a mistake but that was a long time ago and she is very stubborn and the sort of person who holds agrudge till the bitter end. She doesnt like to give a second chance.I do not want things to be left like this indefinitely as you dont know whats going to happen in the next minute. Many people in the family have tried for a reconciliation, me and my husband went to see her for this purpose but she just keeps repeating the past and wont let go. If I go to a family gathering and try to shake her hand she will not take my hand and turns away. My eyes are filling up as I type even though we were never close she is still my mother. The reason I am telling you this is that in this blessed month of Ramadan I am praying and fasting and then I am thinking are any of my prayers being accepted when my own mother will not give me the time of day? How can my prayers be accepted. I pray every sehri time and every iftar time and with every namaz for one thing that we have a reconciliation. I would like to ask as many people as possible if you will also remember me in your prayers this Ramadan and please please pray that my mother forgives me. I hope my prayers will be answered. If this happens it will truly be a miracle.
(My father passed away several years ago may Allah grant him a place in heaven. Just in case you're wondering.)
wud u mind tellin us what was the issue? the reason i m askin is, i dun understand how big this issue is that she is being so stubborn? if she is, i m sure the reason must b really big... so until we understand what the root of the prb is, its difficult to give the best solution.
