Some in ease, others in hardship. Some advantaged, others disadvantaged. Each of us has a story, and each is a unique journey. Some are left with scars and traumas, others loss and grief, some in safety and protection, others survived wars and atrocities. From each, there are blessings hidden and disguised in suffering, others through afluency and opportunities. Each must identify both the blessings and tests they have and rise. Many people fail by jumping to judgments about others, not knowing their passed struggles and circumstances, instead of looking into their own hearts and Iman, their own shortcomings and weaknesses, and rather than assisting, advising with goodness and helping others to rise and heal. Then there are those whom Allah brings a leader out of, a benefit to others through the hardships of life’s harsh lessons, to become a source of hope, healing and guidance to the vulnerable and troubled like them. Whomever Allah uses in the task of spreading His Message and helping others out of darkness, is a better gift than what the sun has risen upon. This is a story of struggle, hardship, pain, grief, heartbreak, agony and survival, to a guidance from Allah from darkness to light, narrowness to vastness, loneliness to being part of an ummah, and from heartbreaking loss to gain and healing. Join me in this rich, emotional and inspiring podcast with my dear brother in Islam Akhi Ayman as we journey through his life of darkness to light, to become on the road of inspiration and healing for thousands of hurting youth around the world. ============================================== Support Us: https://www.belalassaad.com.au/donate Subscribe to Email list: https://www.belalassaad.com.au/email-...
