However, I can’t help but disagree (as soon as I read “Nothing in life is free.” In truth, everything is free. Just think of the air you breath, the sunsine that provides us with warmth and nourishment, and so on. Futhermore, entering Jannah is a mercy from Allah that no one actually accomplishes without his permission. Not a single person could accomplish this without much forgiveness from Allah.

What did they get out of it? I lost a child right at the end and everyone around me kept saying oh miskeenah oh you poor girl you carried that baby and suffered for 9 months but you got nothing out of it.

In hindsight, the toils and tests are blessings in of themselves.

Children are the sweetest things and with human greed, if childbirth was so simple and easy, we’d overpopulate the world in a few years and not appreciate what we have. Life would also have been viewed even cheaper than it is today and everyone would be viewed as replaceable. The hikmah of childbirth pain is larger than just a personal struggle, it protects humankind from its own destructive nature.

We just have to make sure that when we are going through the hard parts of life…we realize that the light at the end of the tunnel is *really a relief*…and not a train 🙂
