As Salaam Alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu,
I was feeling a bit upset today because I was thinking that my autistic daughter will be turning three in a few weeks and with the exception of very few occasions has not spoken. I know that after a certain age, if a child does not speak there will be very little chance that it ever speaks. I think that age is between 5 – 7.
I am hoping that I will get to her my sweet little girls voice. She is so loving and so beautiful that it really hurts me to think that I might not hear it in this life. This morning when she woke and came down the stairs, I said salaam alaykum dudu (her nickname) and she gave me a great big smile. It was wonderful.
Oh Allah grant me and my family and all the Muslims Jannah.
