15 Wise Ways How to Get Over a Heartbreak in Islam

Islam doesn’t know and doesn’t allowed relationship between man and woman before marriage. So a Muslim needs to come to his sense to get done with whatever romantic relationship he has with a woman. That is actually the best decision a Muslim could ever make, as it draws him closer with Allah.

But it also undeniable that breaking up is very sad, and that person should deal with heartbreak afterwards. But don’t worry because there no problem with no solution in Islam. Here are the ways how to get over a heartbreak in Islam for you:

1. Don’t Hope for Uncertain Things

Upon the breakup, don’t make any promise with that person. It will only keep you hanging when they said, “Let’s meet again in a better condition,” or “When the time is better,”. You have to stop all of that and rely only to Allah’s fate. If they are the one who is destined for you, you surely will meet one another without making such promises. It only make both of you feel miserable even more, and harder to get over the heartbreak. Cut it down to the core and move on.

2. Cut All the Contacts and Memories

Memories are thing you wished to keep forever, because you don’t want to forget the way you feel at the time. But keeping the memories about them only make you remember them all the time. Which will make you harder to move on.

Delete all the texts, photos, emails, message, and don’t save their phone number anymore. Try not to meet them or run into each other as much as possible. Stop stalking them and find out what they’re up to.

The early stage of heartbreak is the hardest. You seem to be not wanting to let them go, and you often wondering whether they still think about you or not. Which will also tempt you wanting to know their recent whereabouts. Stop wasting time wondering about the thing that is not sure and you could be ended as the one got hurt instead. Just keep in mind that they’re just doing fine without you, as so are you.

4. He/She is Not Right for You

Allah SWT would save you from things that may hurt you, even though He has to break your heart. Relationship before marriage is wrong to begin with, and it won’t get right no matter how much time has passed. You loved them out of desire, which is very close with Shaytaan, not for the sake of Allah. Because they are not the right one for you, start a relationship with the right foundation first, so Allah SWT will help you to keep it going.
