  Dear respected sister Dr. Francesca: I ask Allah SWT to grant you the highest Jannah.  I struggled to find a TRUE Scientific AND Muslim approach to aid in reflecting on today's life style in human living. Barak Allah laki wa alaiki.

  Some people are lessons disguised as friendships, and some endings are blessings disguised as disappointments. Not everything that hurts you is meant to destroy you.

  I like to say words of dhikr when I'm alone and when no one can hear me.

  One of the deeds I do is to be thankful to God that I'm still alive. It doesn't mean I'm wasting my life. Rather, I'm making sure that everything I do, from breathing to doing my daily work, I thank God for letting me have the energy and time to complete my tasks even when it seemed impossible at first.

  Salam professor. I’ve been watching your videos for some time now. I find them amongst the most sincere and helpful ones on YT. May allah reward you for it. <br><br>In this video in particular, I got very emotional at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=26Smv5zfAWM&amp;t=230">3:50</a> because I very recently discovered this supplication after I lost my job. I felt unjustly treated. Sometimes I judge myself lazy, yet I feel exhausted. You repeating the words of our beloved prophet had me in tears. <br><br>I don’t have a dip per se. But thanks to your video I will have one that will be in the Sunnah of our prophet SA. <br><br>Thank you for the explanation and your beneficial content as always.

  SubhanAllah this video came to me at the right time. Last 5 months have been a very challenging with a lot of trials and this month more so and I was constantly questioning myself and my capabilities because I couldn&apos;t keep up with my islamic courses, khatham group and another course I&apos;m doing. &nbsp;I forgot that I&apos;m a mom to 2 young girls and have my family living with me and all the other responsibilities that I need to juggle among other things. &nbsp;<br>We are sometimes sooo hard on ourselves that we forget to remember that Allah doesn&apos;t burden a soul more than one can bear but instead it is us that are delusional when we wonder why we cant go on with the same daily rhythm &nbsp;even when trails happen in the background.<br><br> Thanks for reminding me our bodies and mind need rest too as we need to treat it as an amanah by prioritising its needs based on life&apos;s seasons. <br><br>Barak Allahu feeki.❤
