Veteran Pakistani actress Hina Khawaja Bayat recently spoke about her personal losses and shared the life lesson she received from her late mother that helped her navigate through grief and sorrow.
Speaking in an interview, Hina recalled losing her parents, her in-laws and later her husband. She shared that each loss reminded her of the advice her mother had given her years earlier.
When asked what guidance she would offer someone going through a difficult period in life, the actor shared a memory from her father's funeral.
Hina said that while mourning her father, her mother asked whether she had eaten. Surprised by the question, she wondered how anyone could think about food at such a time.
According to Hina, her mother then reminded her that whatever life Allah has written for a person must be lived and that it should be lived with gratitude.
The actor said she fully understood the depth of those words years later after losing her husband.
Sharing on the experience, she explained that her mother had not advised her to live with courage, bravery or even patience, but with gratitude.
Hina added that life constantly teaches valuable lessons and people only need to remain emotionally and spiritually open to recognise the guidance they receive.
Known for her work in Pakistani television and film, Hina Khawaja Bayat has built a career spanning decades and is admired for portraying strong and compassionate characters. Her popular work includes Humsfar, Zindagi Gulzar Hai, Ishq Jalebi and Khuda Aur Mohabbat Season 3.
