FIFTY D

Kindness and gentleness are traits that are inherently good, and whoever has them has been given his portion of goodness.  The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: مَنْ يُحْرَمْ الرِّفْقَ يُحْرَمْ الْخَيْرَ He who is deprived of kindness is deprived of goodness.  Make sure you have the intentions before giving dawah. You should have pure and good intentions. Oftentimes, many Muslims decide to tell the world about Islam but do it in a way that causes more damage than good, putting themselves in unfortunate situations Don't give Dawah if your intention is to show off that you are a very knowledgeable person; make sure your intention is to please Allah. Giving Dawah is essentially a special mission to invite people to worship Allah according to the way that He wants to be worshiped. You are delivering a message of truth and showing others how to follow it.

Oh, to be conscious that this realm isn’t eternal, is far more than a blessing. Seems as if all of us are tangled up in worldly appetites, the more we ignore, the more pain and hurt we instill in ourselves unconsciously. Although ignorance is bliss, the choice to be naive and unaware causes damage & pain upon others more than oneself. To unravel, is to dive deep into the trauma, scars, etc. That are deeply embedded in our souls. To neglect, is to never grow and to be a prisoner of your desires, and a slave to temporary pleasure.

In this episode we will talk about the complexities of grief and how unique the process is. This is a universal pain we all share, and a very difficult concept to grasp. Throughout this episode we try to go through every part of grief and how intricate it is. 

This episode is inspired by philosopher and writer Alan Watts who talked about how we live in an age of anxiety caused by numerous social factors that make us forget to live in the present. We discuss this subject and give our personal insight about anxiety and depression and non practical & practical approaches that could possibly help.

Happiness may be whatever you make it, but your desires may never fill your void. In this episode, we dive into why things such as friendships, compassion, and respect lost their value and are slowly becoming extinct. Are you always motivated by self-interest and selfishness? even in what seems to be acts of altruism? Living in your own vanity expires and eventually, we all become stories. So why do we still continue these actions, and what is the root of these problems?
