- 197 - Defining Your Equilibrium: Finding Balance in Your Own Life | Islamic Feelings
What does balance actually look like? Is it something we're supposed to find, or something we're meant to create? In this episode, we reflect on what it means to define your own equilibrium. We talk about making decisions with intention instead of pressure, learning to slow down before saying yes to everything, and building a life that aligns with your values and your relationship with Allah. Balance is not about having everything perfectly together. It is about knowing what matters most, accepting that every choice comes with a tradeoff, and trusting Allah to guide you through each season.

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.

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. Thank you for being here and sharing this journey with me.

Thu, 30 Nov 2023 - 04min - 138 - Life lessons I learned in 2023 | Islamic Feelings
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. Whether it's a shift in our long-term goals or a deeper understanding of the people around us, these experiences can be our greatest teachers. - Ali bin Abi Talib reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Gabriel, upon him be peace, said to me: O Muhammad, love whom you wish for you will surely part with them, act as you wish for you will surely see its results, and live as you wish for you will surely die.” The Prophet said, “Gabriel had been concise with me in his discourse.” Source: Ḥilyat al-Awliyā’ 3/202

Wed, 01 Nov 2023 - 04min - 135 - "my last words for you..." | islamic feelings
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.

Fri, 25 Aug 2023 - 38min - 124 - how to stop attaching your happiness to people | islamic feelings
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.

Wed, 16 Aug 2023 - 46min - 123 - feeling overwhelmed? let's talk | islamic feelings
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.
Thu, 10 Aug 2023 - 34min - 122 - overcoming insecurities, building confidence, hijab tips + more | islamic feelings
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."

Fri, 28 Jul 2023 - 43min - 121 - Islam & Special Needs: Are We Behaving Like The Quraysh? | Belal Elkadri Takeover EP
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. Brother Belal has been involved in helping employ the mental health community at ACCESS. He served as a host for Noor Kids News.

Enter the straight path altogether and do not divert to the side!’ A caller is placed above the path and when anyone intends to open those doors in the slightest, he says, ‘Woe to you! Do not open it or else you will enter it!’ The path is Islam, the curtains are the limits of Allah, and the open doors are the prohibitions of Allah.

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.

the balance between your worldly success & failures can be overwhelming at times. sometimes seasons of your life can go by where you aren't necessarily receiving "any success". In some cases, you start to wonder if the test sent your way was a blessing or just a punishment. letting your worldly failures pour into your relationship with God can create a damaging view & make us believe that God is required to fulfill our needs & wants whenever we want, however this is far from the truth. this episode talks about exactly that :) ------- This week's episode is sponsored by International Open University *IOU* International Open University offers many accredited degree programs in Islamic Studies and Arabic.

balancing your priorities in this world & your hereafter can become overwhelming sometimes. often in stages like this, it becomes nearly impossible to do anything because there is so much to do at once. this episode talks about how to deal with an overwhelmingly busy schedule while making time for yourself. ☆Abdullah ibn Mas’ud reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Whoever absorbs his heart in love of the world will be entangled by three things: misery that will not cease to discomfort him, greed that will not achieve his independence, and vain hopes that will never reach their end. For the world is seeking and is sought. Whoever seeks the world, the Hereafter will pursue him until death comes to him and it seizes him. Whoever seeks the Hereafter, the world will pursue him until he exhausts his provision from it.” Source: al-Mu’jam al-Kabīr 10328 ☆

we all love Allah. we try our best to seek knowledge to better understand Him & this deen.. but love is always tested when things get hard, so how exactly does it look like to love Allah in difficulty? ♡ The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, “Verily Allah ta’ala has said: ‘Whosoever shows enmity to a wali (friend) of Mine, then I have declared war against him. And My servant does not draw near to Me with anything more loved to Me than the religious duties I have obligated upon him. And My servant continues to draw near to me with nafil (supererogatory) deeds until I Love him. When I Love him, I am his hearing with which he hears, and his sight with which he sees, and his hand with which he strikes, and his foot with which he walks. Were he to ask [something] of Me, I would surely give it to him; and were he to seek refuge with Me, I would surely grant him refuge (Hadith 38, 40 Hadith an-Nawawi)
