She seems like went through a lot. May Allah make ease for
her . The answer is DUA .

[a.e.k.]

Very interesting words: "resilience is not only about sabr but it also requires creativity and adaptability." I really needed this right now, especially after a long period of professional doubts, failure and rejection. Alhamdoulillah ❤

[samuraikhan]

Alhamdulillah...
It's 2.23 am now, i was lying on my bed with thoughts like: why am i failing everything. What's wrong with me, etc.
And just decided to look at my phone. I'm so grateful to Allah right now for this kind of instant answer.

[sahilrahman]

It seems like she is facing a lot may Allah make it easy for her Ameen.

[IfrahAbdi-byit]

She seems so sincere and wants to get closer to Allah may Allah make it easy for her and guide her

[shaguftashaikh]

May Allah grant her guidance ease and khair and also to all who are stuck in any difficulty aameen💐

[onlystudy]

I can see she was curious to know the answer, She was ready for the challenges that will come her way and she wanted Allah to be pleased with her. May Allah open doors for her and make her life easy and always be pleased with her. Aameen ❤

[muhammadahmed]

May Allah give her peace, happiness, wealth & love eternally.

Her words and look brought tears in my eyes

[ibrahimsomali]

the way the brother defined resilience made me understand it now.

[reviewtoearn]

Bayynah Institute should be recommended to her, even though brother Nourman doesn't want to sound bias it is good for what it does.

[Hadith_.hub]

This video has brought tears of joy to my eyes. Alhamdulillah for guiding us to the right path.

Ustadh Nouman Ali Khan recomended IIUM .Masya Allah

This is exactly my problem too. For the last couple of years i feel life is getting harder and harder and I am lagging behind. Sometimes I feel as an introvert I am not getting the jobs I want or sometimes it's because of my attention problem or procrastination or thr fact thst my brain gets worked up too much and I get exhausted. And for thr last couple of days even physically I am struggling to keep up. Sometimes it gets the hardest. Anyway I heard the meaning of Ar Rahman today. Alhamdulillah. It was Nouman sir's khutbah. And I found a lil peace. I need yo remember that Allah is accepting our duas all the time fulfilling our needs all the time. And this trying again and again being resourceful and doing our level best thing ... I've been trying. Idk when will I get the results but may Allah give me the strength to go on. I am 28+ years old, girl, unmarried. My parents are worried. And I also trying for jobs but no results. Please pray for me whoever is reading this comment. May Allah make me more patient and give me more Imaan.

I just cried after the question...and so was convinced by the answer

[shahidasamar]

it seemed to me that these were my qestions. im grateful to ustaz

[moinudeen]

When u face difficulties, say laa hawla wala quwwata illaa billah... The way will be clear after that. We must learn to accept difficulties like the way we learnt to accept easiness. Do help others thru wealth and health for sometime in a day.. live for others . Live for family, live for relatives.. do something to them for the sake of Allah . Then difficulties go away or it will seem trivial to your eyes. Then navigating life easier after that.thats how our fitrah has been made by Allah .. Allah repeats it in many ways. Hasanath makes our way easier..

[susana]

Alhamdullilah for everything. Such a great reminder, to always keep trying in the face of our challenges, this is what builds resilience and having tawakkul in all we do. Also reminding ourselves to be grateful for what we do have.

[Barbarossa-heir]

😢😢 I literally cried when the imam answered...

[darnellmiller]

I don't know, I felt like he was impatient with her, sort of yelling at her.

This woman was sweet, sincere, seeking real answers and to me, his energy did not meet hers, the chemistry was a tad off...just my opinion.

I particularly did nor like the bird analogy when he said the bird crashes into windows because they don't have enough brain; was he saying she was facing her trials due to being unintelligent?

I said a dua for this sister and may Allah guide her and help her maintain and sustain in her journey.

May Allah bless her.

Ameen!
