Assalamu’alaikum everyone. The beautiful month of Muharram is upon us, marking the beginning of a new Islamic year. In this episode, I provide a quick guide on breaking common bad habits. Drawing from letters in Molana Yunus Patel's book on resolving personal weaknesses and sharing some of my own actionable tips, we'll explore practical steps to overcome negligence in salah, how to stop gossiping & lying, managing materialism, and more Narrated in the Muwatta of Imam Malik, Rahimahullah Ta'ala, Safwara bin Sulaym, radiyaAllahu anhu, says the Prophet SAW was asked:  Can a believer be a coward? He said, “Yes, he can be coward. Then it was asked whether a believer could be a miser? He replied, “Yes, he can be a miser”, it was then asked whether a believer could be a liar? He replied, “No, a believer cannot be a liar.” (Imam Malik, Mishkaat) Connect with me & find helpful resources: www.islamicfeelings.com --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/islamicfeelings/support

Dhul Hijjah is home to the best ten days of the year, as highlighted in the beautiful hadith: Abdullah ibn Mas’ud reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “No good deeds can be done at a time better than these first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah.” It was said, “Not even jihad in the way of Allah?” The Prophet said, “Not even jihad in the way of Allah.” Source: al-Mu’jam al-Kabīr 10307 ☆ As Muslims, we should take the opportunity to maximize our good deeds and voluntary acts in these beloved days.

This new series is based on the book Kitab al-Hikam. Through selected quotes and reflections, I hope to discuss how these insights provide clarity and guidance. There will be many themes to explore, such as trust in divine wisdom, the importance of inner tranquility, and creating a relationship with Allah. By connecting these teachings to contemporary issues—such as stress, uncertainty, global circumstances, and the quest for purpose—I hope each episode resonates with you in a unique way. - Abu al-Husayn reported: Abu Uthman al-Hiri, may Allah have mercy on him, said, “Companionship with Allah Almighty is to have good manners, to always be reverent, and to be mindful. Companionship with the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, is to follow his Sunnah and adhere to the outward rulings. Companionship with the allies of Allah is to respect and to serve them. Companionship with one’s family and children is to have good character. Companionship with one’s brethren is to always be joyful and cheerful, unless there is sin. Companionship with the foolish is to supplicate for them, to be merciful to them, and to appreciate the blessings of Allah upon you as you have been kept safe from their trials.” Source: Ṣifat al-Ṣafwah 2/302 --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/islamicfeelings/support

Life serves as a classroom through the people we encounter, where every interaction, be it joyful or challenging, offers an opportunity to learn.

Assalamu’alaikum everyone! I hope you're all doing well. It's been a while since we've connected, and I've missed our conversations. Today, I wanted to take some time to delve into a few topics that I believe are important for us all. As we step into this new year, I find it crucial to address the concept of New Year's resolutions. Often, we set these ambitious goals, but some resolutions can unknowingly lead us down paths of stress or unattainable expectations. So, let's talk about steering away from unhealthy resolutions and instead focus on nurturing a sense of peace within ourselves and our homes. My hope is that this episode resonates with you, offering guidance and insight as we embark on this new chapter. Here's to a year filled with growth, self-reflection, and building our inner peace. May this be a stepping stone toward a more fulfilling and enriching life for each one of us.

This week's episode takes a more structured approach as I delve into the random life lessons I've gathered over the past year. Life is full of unexpected moments, and I've come to believe that it's within these small circumstances that we find opportunities for personal growth.

Many of us carry with us the weight of unspoken words, the "could haves" and "should haves" that linger in the corridors of our minds. These unspoken sentiments often haunt us, pulling us into a perpetual loop of regret and missed opportunities. It's a shared human experience, one that touches us all. However, it's essential to recognize that dwelling on these unexpressed feelings isn't conducive to our well-being, nor is it encouraged. In this episode, I took to Instagram with a purpose – to invite my followers to share their last words for someone they love but can no longer convey those feelings to. This situation isn't unique; it might be a loved one who has passed away, a friend who has moved on, or circumstances that have created an unbridgeable gap. The responses poured in, each one carrying profound emotions and untold stories. Regret often stems from our silence, from the moments we held back our love, appreciation, or forgiveness. By reaching out and sharing our heartfelt words, we can find a sense of closure and peace. Through these heartfelt messages shared by my followers, I hope you can find solace and comfort. They serve as a reminder that it's never too late to express your love, gratitude, or apologies to those who matter most in your life. In doing so, we free ourselves from the burden of unsaid words, finding a path toward healing and inner peace. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/islamicfeelings/support

In Islam, the concept of attaching one's happiness primarily to people is approached with caution and balance. While human relationships and connections are important, Islam teaches believers to place ultimate reliance and attachment on Allah (God) rather than solely depending on human interactions for their happiness. The Quran and the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad  PBUH emphasize the importance of putting one's faith in Allah and finding contentment through a strong connection with Him. Islam encourages believers to strike a balance between forming meaningful relationships with others and maintaining a strong connection with Allah. While people can bring happiness and support, attachment solely to them can lead to disappointment and instability. By focusing on faith, personal responsibility, gratitude, and reliance on God, Muslims aim to find lasting contentment and joy while navigating the complexities of human relationships. This episode discusses a few personal tips in how to avoid attaching your happiness to people. Anas reported: The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Leave the world to its people. Whoever takes from the world more than what suffices him, he has taken a portion of his ruin while he is unaware.” Source: al-Firdaws lil-Daylamī 363 ☆ This episode is sponsored by Rabata.

Feeling overwhelmed is something we all go through, and sometimes it can seem like it's taking over everything. Learning how to handle your emotions when you're overwhelmed is a really important part of life. Ultimately, the teachings of Islam encourage believers to place their trust in Allah's wisdom and mercy. Understanding that challenges are a part of life's journey and that seeking help through prayer, supplication, and community can provide a sense of relief and guidance when feeling overwhelmed is key. As we navigate the complexities of life, including moments of overwhelm, the teachings and practices of Islam can serve as a source of strength, comfort, and resilience, helping individuals find their footing amidst the storm and fostering a deeper connection to their faith. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/islamicfeelings/support

This particular episode has been one of the most highly requested ones I've had so far. Discussing insecurities is never an easy topic, and as individuals strive to become better and more modest Muslims, each journey should lead to a destination. Throughout this process, it's common to experience moments of insecurity and a fading sense of confidence, particularly when one's appearance sets them apart as a Muslim. Not to mention, confidence is a positive quality valued in Islam.The belief in Allah's mercy, guidance, and support can instill a sense of confidence in a Muslim's life. Moreover, Islam promotes humility, which is different from low self-confidence. Muslims are encouraged to be humble and acknowledge that all their strengths and achievements come from Allah's blessings. This understanding prevents arrogance and helps maintain a balanced sense of confidence. Insecurities may arise from societal pressures and stereotypes that some Muslims face. Negative portrayals of Muslims in the media can contribute to feelings of insecurity and alienation. Additionally, misconceptions about Islam and the fear of being judged or misunderstood by others can create internal struggles for some individuals. This episode delves precisely into this matter. - Abu Huraira reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, "Islam began as something strange and will return to being strange, so blessed are the strangers."

Special Needs and Islam is a discussion that a lot of people aren't educated or comfortable discussing. Unfortunately, due to the treatment special needs individuals receive in their local masjids and by their community, it is more convenient for parents or special needs individuals to feel the need to hide themselves. Due to this lack of knowledge and ignorance regarding how the Muslim community treats individuals with disabilities or special needs, we are effectively removing and harming a part of our ummah. Our masjids struggle to be inclusive, and unfortunately, some masjids aren't concerned about facilitating a part of the ummah. This important topic led me to invite Brother Belal Elkadri. Belal Elkadri is a motivational speaker in the Metro Detroit area where he delivers sermons and lectures to empower the community and bring awareness to current issues.

Moving mountains through ministrations, Dhikr is not just words. It is how one remembers God and subconsciously moves oneself onto the righteous path. The remembrance of God reverberates throughout Islamic history, from the tongues of the prophets to those of the common man.

The prevalence of pop psychology is increasing, with more and more people sharing psychological facts that may be trendy but lack factual accuracy. This trend can lead individuals to engage in unqualified and harmful overanalysis of their emotions and experiences.

The discussion surrounding decision-making and pursuing one's dreams while having immigrant parents is always challenging for most young adults. While you deeply appreciate the sacrifices they have made, it also brings a sense of pressure to meet their expectations.

This episode delves into precisely this topic. ☆☆ Abdullah ibn Mas’ud reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Never is a servant struck by worry or grief but let him say, ‘O Allah, I am Your servant, the son of Your servant, the son of Your maidservant.

I ask You by every name with which You have named Yourself, or revealed in Your Book, or taught to one of Your creatures, or kept hidden in the Unseen with You, that You make the Quran the spring of my heart, the light within me, the banisher of my depression, and the expeller of my anxiety,’ then Allah will expel his worry and replace his grief with joy.” They said, “O Messenger of Allah, should we study these words?” The Prophet said, “Of course, whoever hears them should study them.” Source: Ṣaḥīḥ Ibn Ḥibbān 972 --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/islamicfeelings/support

we have all heard how it's important to detach yourself from the deep love of the dunya & learn to prioritize your deen. however, learning how to do it in a healthy way is key. one place we all get lost is in the concept of thinking that we are in complete control over every single thing. this mindset can easily destory someone while creating a endless chase & love for the dunya as an individual imagines the idea of having authority over all his affairs. We are only capable of doing what's in our capacity, and even that is through God's allowance. stringing your hearts happiness on the contingencies of you successfully moving a mountain will only hurt you. another place alot of us get lost is in the pain caused by the dunya. pain is unavoidable. it is bound to happen at one point or another. pain is also one of the big factors that can either consume you deeply in the dunya or help you detach in a healthy manner. using pain to learn more about Allah & reintroduce yourself in a new light can be the best investment you ever make. no one can heal the way God does.

Assalamu’alaikum everyone! This week's episode covers a wide range of topics from understanding our relationship with regret, love/logic & more. One of the important concepts being how perspective drives performance. This also applies when we try to define success in the dunya. the most common definitions of success at a worldly level is to be at peace. reality is, no matter what you have, even if it's everything you dream of & more, you will never be 100% at peace for a long period of time in the dunya. the dunya will forever be changing, somedays you will win & somedays you will lose. regardless, learning to be content drives you to true success. content with the fact that things might go your way, be grateful. content with the fact that when things don't go your way, there is something better. content with the fact that this dunya is just a part of the destination, not the destination itself. Ibn Umar reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Be in this world as if you were a stranger or a traveler along a path.” Ibn Umar would say, “If you make it to the evening, do not wait for the morning. If you make it to the morning, do not wait for the evening.

from learning how to deal with redirection, building meaningful bonds and learning when to let go, this episode is filled with a wide range of life lessons I've learned in my 18 years. for some hearing "no" or dealing with redirection is one of the hardest things to face especially when you had an expectation. However, one of the biggest things I've learned is that "no" is just another step closer to "yes". You will hear lots of "no's" in your life, they only lead you to what is best.

Intention is something we always hear about. Not to mention, it's something alot of us struggle with. So this episode is a story that presents a beautiful example of how the same action can have a different outcome simply due to the intention. ♡“And whosoever fears Allah and keeps his duty to Him, He will make a way for him to get out (from every difficulty). And He will provide for him from sources he never could imagine. And whosoever puts his trust in Allah, then He will suffice him. Verily, Allah will accomplish His purpose. Indeed Allah has set a measure for all things.” (65:2-3) ☆playlists with episodes in order can be found in the link on my page :) --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/islamicfeelings/support

one of the biggest fantasies that people live in is this perception that one day someone is going to come in and save them from all their issues & heal them from the negligence they did by not emotionally investing in themselves. reality is, this is not true. we all have baggage that needs healing and help, but to sit in misery thinking that someone will come and save you is plain injustice to you & your future capabilities. when dealing with emotional investments, alot of feelings,hardwork & time is on the line.. but what happens if you feel confused if the person you are investing in is even right in the first place? this episode helps you navigate through the confusion of whether you are making the right choice or not ♡. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/islamicfeelings/support

disloyalty has become increasingly normalized as a trait to be proud of since it makes one "strong" or "alpha", yet disloyalty only reveals the incapability of developing meaningful relationships. The one who cant be loyal to people is loyal to his desires & our desires are never loyal to us. This ep also talks about how there's no doubt that the effort & actions we put forth attract people to love & appreciate us more.. but an honest question that arises is "do the people in your life love you for you, or for what you can provide". --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/islamicfeelings/support

unfortunately it's no doubt that certain cultures value having a son more than anything else. it's even more unfortunate how some toxic cultures make women " valueless" until they give a son. for generations, these cultural traditions of having a son to " fix" a man has kept women in abusive and loveless marriages. while parenting is never easy.. it doesn't take a parent to realize that feeding into someone's narcissism & arrogance for doing nothing is not right. this episode talks about exactly that ♡ --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/islamicfeelings/support
