About Honest Tea Talk
with Aliyah, LaYinka & Sumayah
Inspired by Jada Pinkett-Smith's 'Red Table Talk', 3 Muslim women have set up a platform to speak openly and honestly, giving viewers an unedited insight into the minds and life of Muslim women. Honest Tea Talk brings deep and often unspoken topics to the table to lay down our masks and start much-needed discussions about matters related to Muslim women and the ummah at large.

Honestly these sisters are useful to the Ummah. May Allah be with you sisters. Can't wait new episodes to be uploaded.
I have lost my way....don’t know why. I love Allah SWA and I make dua please pray for me
Salam Aleykoum sister, don't despair in the mercy of Allah swt. Even if you are going through a low Iman, don't pray, have made mistakes, sinned etc..please talk to Allah swt, tell him what is going on, release what's on your heart and ask Him to forgive you and to guide you. InshaAllah He will and guide you and all of us. We all struggle. May Allah swt help you, comfort you and guide you strength..Amine 💕
InshaAllah Allah will make easy 4 u...
May Allah forgive you and revert you to the right path.
@maxi Khan eat your mongolian beef you fool and continue to be oppressed in your false worship!!!!I you shouldn't disrespect or talk down on nobody's faith.I never talk down on no ones choice of religion thats maturity,But ypu r an attention seeker i know u lonely.😂😂😂😂😂
@maxi Khan bs is coming from your mouth!
Depression. That's all I have to say. It affects people so much and in so many ways
Yes..
Ayat- Al - Kursi is a brilliant verse to understand Allah and very powerful and takes seconds to say
For me personally, when I started to have doubts like you said I sought correct knowledge about what concerned me. Aqeedah is really an important thing to learn. I can’t emphasize that enough. The more you dwell on your doubts by yourself, the bigger they’ll get until they become all consuming. To get out of darkness, one must seek knowledge with a sincere heart that’s truly looking for Allah. If you go into it to prove or disprove something, chances are you won’t like what you find or it’ll reinforce your doubts even more. If the person teaching you about Islam isn’t engaging to you, remember your learning it not to be entertained but to gain knowledge so you can better your relationship with Allah. Not everyone teaches the same way or has that cool personality that makes lessons fun. Always remember your sincere intentions when you’re doing something to help you get through it.
I can totally relate. When the test comes, l realize that I didn't have the level of Iman that I thought I had. But Masha Allah, by His grace we succeed. Alhamdulillah
Jazakallah khair for this amazing episode.I could relate to every word of it having gone through a very dark time recently.For me it was holding onto my salah and dealing with it rationally instead of emotionally that got me through.When I blocked out the comments of people and internalized who my Allah really is,I was able to see the light.
I converted to Islam in 2011 and the ladies I worked with supported me as far as being my circle of believing women. I went with them to Masjid, they gifted me with my first hijab and were always there to assist me with anything I needed. The problem started when I left that company we worked for and I moved houses, somehow I distanced myself and lost all contact with them. Ive been inactive ever since. Now I want to come back and I dont know where to start. Then I come across this video :)
14:15 - 16:15 I felt this part!!!
Don't give up sis
Where do you live?
@@carlsmith3709 I'm in South Africa
I like these sisters MA. Sophisticated, open-minded and wise x
Quite clued up alhamdulila
Allah protect them amin
@@lalabeluli9795 Ameen, ya Rabb!
I lost my way and you honestly helped me figure out why i did move away a lot from my religion
Thank you so much
It definitely helped me to try to get a good reasoning behind my distance fron Islam !
Additionally if you're feeling tired, like really tired, drained perhaps by the company of a particular person or group of people. Enduring hits while your down. Having no rahma or shafaqa from those around you who are supposed to love and protect you but fail to protect you from themselves. This deep tiredness one feels could easily be used by the shaitan and lead them to fall short on the basics of their deen. I would say we sometimes have to look at our company and if their is a toxicity around us holding us down we need to take that toxicity out of our life in order to come back up for air and have the strength to grip back on to Allah's rope and slowly pull ourselves higher. It's not easy to do especially if that toxicity comes from a spouse and children are involved but we must take comfort in knowing that if we remove this toxicity for the sake of lightening the load to aid us to return to the light then this will be noticed by Allah and he will surely let everything fall into place for you.
This is so true. Especially if the people around us are pretending to be holier than thou or are making you feel as if you don’t belong by devaluing your opinion/knowledge because you are a revert (which is still a Muslim btw.).
I get that 100% once you slip with one thing it can spiral downwards,and doing the basics is a struggle for some,Shaitan is forever after you,plus when you are on your own no family are muslims it is a lonesome journey
♥️
May Allah Ta'ala make things easy for you Sis Katrina. Ameen. Don't you have Muslims around you or a local masjid? In some towns sisters regularly get-together and it doesn't feel so lonely.
@@protectyourthaghr no they have a mosque but nothing goes off for ladies,the mens section is different lol,also I do worry about my funeral arrangements as none of my children are muslims cand there is no cemetery for muslims in this town
And the nearest cemetery is 42 miles away.Allah knows best.
Assalam Alaykum. Where do you live if you don’t mind me asking?
May Allah bless, protect, and increase everyone involved with this program.
Despite being in a muslim country (Senegal), I struggle with finding a community that can support me and help me get a routine. I would love to get into contact with some sisters to have people to discuss with about religion.
Asalaamu alaikum sis, I'm part of a sisters group, where we so talk about controversial islamic matters, and matters of religion for women. The group is held by one sister from USA, she is a nice sister;, and we would love to invite you to our sisters group. We have halaqahs every Wednesday and Friday; on a Wednesday we talk about controversial issues in islam, we have discussed racism, women's travel, hijra and the likes. On a Friday we hold group discussions on hadith we are looking at imam nawaiwi 40 hadiths.
This group is a mix of revert sisters and sisters with a muslim background. If you would like to join our WhatsApp group, message me back and I'll send u the link .
We meet up via Zoom
Barakallahu feek sister
Can you please add me on your group أم عيضة
Barakallahu feek ukhtis this is a great reminder. The part that touched me the most is the part where one of the sisters said it is so easy for us to just judge these other sisters who take their hijab’s off and say astaqfurilah but when the test hits us we do not know how we will react. We should never be content with our iman we always need to work on it and continue to ask Allah to help us strengthen it.
My sisters, May Allah reward you for your beautiful contributions to the Ummah. Honestly I have not been able to stop listening to your talk. Very beneficial. “Have a good expectation of Allah”. He will never leave us. Solat is the solution to all our problems. May Allah grant us ease in all our affairs.
I think everyone needs to set their own baseline. You cant start at the typical "basics" if you were never there to begin with. That's cant be everyone's base. For me I just start with something small like saying one dua and just focusing on the next prayer and go from there. I can't make praying 5 times a day my baseline if I've never prayed before in my life. That's something we have to build to in my opinion. Also some women take off their hijab and that doesnt mean they dont believe, or they dont pray. I actually pray alot and I dont wear hijab. I dont pray 5 times a day but I'm working towards it. Some people's struggles are more visible than others and equating the loss of hijab to no faith is extreme.
I lost my way and during that dreadful state I decided to make life changing decisions, and now I'm far away from my friends and my family, stuck in a toxic marriage and there's no turning back.
Never take good company for granted you might not find it again 😞
May Allah give you ease sister. There are signs for you too. Don't give up on yourself and find a solution, talk to friends and family. Seek for help.
I am falling further and further away as well. I don't wear hijab, I rarely pray or read Quran. Alhamdulilah I don't participate/have desires to do any other haraam activities.
The thing is, I do believe in God. I just can't seem to get up and pray. This is the lowest point of my spiritual journey.
I will pray for u but no thing is worse than that if you stop prayers u lost every thing repent to allah before u die and pray dear
@Hamsa Hamdan Thank you so much for those words 🤲❤
Every day i come back here watching old eposodes,pls sisteres start anew seson insha,allah ihave learn alot from you thank u so much,may allah granted you in janah,and every muslim around the word🤲🤲❤💖
Salam ladies, im so happy I came across your channel. May Allah reward you all and your team for doing this. its awesome!
I am so glad sisters to come over your channel and thanks for your sharing this video it's topic that I needed to re-connect with my creator Sibhanuhu Wa Ta'ala.
This episode really touched me
THANK YOU
Assalamu 'Alaikum,
One thing y'all didn't mention is that the feeling of unworthiness to face Allah swt is only one way for a person to lose iman. There are several others that should be addressed, like experiencing traumatic events, and suffering to a point where a person completely loses hope.
For example, some may say, "I suffered abuse nearly all my life, and you're going to tell me that Allah is there for me? Why should I pray to someone who was not there for me when I needed Him most?"
And one thing that these people don't realize is that their suffering from this world can lead them to relief in the next, so long as they hold on to their faith. It's so hard. And I can't tell you myself that I have suffered any experience that had led me to barely hold on to Allah swt, if I'm being honest, but if you truly realize that this life is a test, and that this life is so short compared to the next, then may Allah swt grant you patience to endure your hardships in this world and grant you the highest place in Jannah.
Allah swt knows best.
you know what reminds of when UmRayyan's last advice was about Salah is this ayah,
ان الصلاة تنهى عن الفحشاء والمنكر ولذكر الله أكبر والله يعلم ما تصنعون
for Prayer restrains from shameful and unjust deeds; and remembrance of Allah is the greatest (thing in life) without doubt. And Allah knows the (deeds) that ye do.
Asalamualaikum sisters. Jazaakirlaahu khairan for the beautiful conversations. One way I try to hold on to Allah, by His leave, is by remembering how far He has brought me, all the times i thought i couldn't make it but He took me through.
I think being truthful to yourself is the key ti keep your faith alive
As a Christian, often I listen to the topics Muslims discuss and I realize a few things.
1) we have the same challenges
2) a lot of these challenges are NEW to Muslims because it is a consequence of westernization on your religion. Christians went, are going through and are still trying to navigate the same things for centuries. Sometimes Muslims criticize Christians for immorality and secularism that has infiltrated our religion, however Muslims are now realizing the same challenges as more of them emigrate to western countries and have children who push boundaries and sometimes go their own way- the western way.
3) the basic premise of our faiths are the same. We aim to serve God with our lives, pursue joy and happiness while on earth with the hope of being with him in heaven.
I think the no.1 thing that leads people away from Islam is social media. It’s the elephant in the room. We can’t ignore the environment of filth we’re living in and the influence and subtle pressure we received and consume on a daily basis will have an impact on our deen.
I relate to all this 💕👌
Wooow. Ma shaa Allah. You guys always nail the heart of each topic you discuss. Keep it up. We will always pray for your good work and blessings.
I think the best advice I can give is to maintain salah (with meaning and understanding of the words), make sincere dua to Allah, and take some time out to reflect on life. Its purpose. Think about Allah. Learn about Him. His names and attributes. Learn the true solid aqeedah of Islam that Rasulullah salallahu alaihi wassallam came with. Internalizing that knowledge and reality will in sha Allah help the iman of sisters.
at 15:56..... preach it sisters!! needed SO much, alhamdulillah
Love you sisters, I know of sisters who do not do hijab or read Salam but they have the strongest eman .
You don’t know how much that episode was beneficial to me💖
May allah gift the ummah with more sisters like you🌟❤️
Norman Ali khan is a great speaker to fallow
Subhanallah it’s so therapeutic 💕
Love you sisters ❤️❤️ i hope this show would continue
Im considering coming back to the faith.
May Allah guide us all ! If you ever feel like you’re having waswas and you feel like your iman is super lower, make du3a. wAllah if you just trust Allah and make sincere du3a, talk to Allah he is going to respond. Never give up, Always make du3a and ask help to Allah. Allah always listens to your du3a, never loose hope and be patient ! May Allah guide us all and make us firm on our religion ! Aminee
Hi guys how're you doing I hope you are all doing well but want to ask you to continue this program it's so interesting
I think something missing from this episode is people losing faith & religion bc of conflicting reports on the origins of religion & doubts that come with that. Not necessary that the person went through something deep personally.
I think learning the meaning of Quran and trying to learn/memorize new surahs in your Salah increases the khushoo3. always reading quls every Salah is gona get more routine and would never realise what you're reading, you'll end up just mumbling in your Salah and straight to ruku3 ect. end up with Salah without contemplating the words of Allah.
Love you guys
مساء الخير my dear brother and sister's don't lose hope just ask God every time even you are in the works
Aselamualikum Ladies , its amazing what you bring out to your discussion table , MashaAllah keep on doing what you do and please more , i am just wondering when is the first episode of your season 2????
Wa alaikum salaam. It'll most likely be end of 2019 or beginning of 2020 inshaAllah
Honest Tea Talk .asalam aleikum my fellow sisters,am eagerly waiting for season 2,just a request next lets target on up bringing kids according to Quran.if i die before it's aired may Allah make it sadaqatul jaaria.am following from kenya.msa
Love this!
Jezakumullah khair for this. May Allah reward you.
Just seen this now, i love it.
How can one ask questions from them?
Very good women in the life, God bless to u all
You should talk about marriage with other religions.
Beautiful lecture
You sisters are right by the time they remove their hijab, they have already went through the process of breaking......
Also sisters have know outlet no support system and that's sad
I always say it can not be that bad
There had to be a cut off point never hit rock bottom to the point you can not see land , fight back ask Allah to help you fight in your time of need......
Maybe you all could do a short clip on your favorite teas 😊❤
Ol' Soul Ana I agree or something to help us know them better
Mash’Allah sisters Allah bless you Ameen Ya Rabb
Hi sisters my point of view is that to know God before wishing him
Allah yitawil umrakum ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
What’s the nahseeed in the beginning?
Struggling in deen sometimes come from societal pressures not recognizing that Islam liberated women. But at the same time struggle with the biological inequality between men and women (menses, childbirth, breast feeding, hormonal imbalances, metabolism, etc.). How or why did God do this to women but not to men? Then if all of this is natural why did Allah say we should not pray salah when we are on our menses at that time he doesnt want to be close to us. This is a real trial.
يارب العالمين guide us the right path. 💞💞الله 💞💞
What is the starting song pls??
Bismillah
Salaamu alaikum everyone. What is the intro nasheed anyone please?
Yawrood by Alaa Wardi
Soumayya Ta
Bismillah
Jazak’Allah Khair and shukran.
Hijab is always the last to go? Ya Allah. Help us.
being in survival mode, hit a fitnah in idea or world. - been there and overcome it and now help prevent ppl from going there by talking about signs of Allah and trials of the Prophets and how the mulhids built no societies and its true and needed and even logical in fitrah to follow Allah.
5,00 - great point healthy high and low.. baseline. Masha Allah what ayat tafsir in Baqarah.
6,00 - salat is a protection, but I firmly feel you are connected to Allah.
8,00 great point, Allah is there but we messed up.
10,00 Yup the Tawhid sis Layinka.
11,40 - internalize Aqidah, 3 pillars of Tawhid.
yup know Allah in ease He will know you in hardship. think its a hadith.
Layinka is right, L a hawla wala kuwata, funny acting. We have to pray to be not afflicted and yes its important to not judge but be helpful. We arer Muslims to help not judge.
14,00 - Sumaya - Tawhid & Aqidah.- hearing about it w/o argueing mad it beautiful.
Matn Aqidah Tahawiyah. yup taught with meaning is beautiful.
sisters put off... whoaa sorry, need those emotiional connection huh... come on. bwaha. no but learn in beautiiful way, no joke, the literature is beautiful too i say.
but yea it should be taught to kids.
teell sisters theres no sin except there is a good deed better short or long term along with virtue Aqida Tawhid.
So removing Hijab means you lost faith? Girl bye! I personally know loads of women who cover and have the most evil heart, judgemental, backbite on a daily basis yet prays 5times a day and covers so don’t sit here and tell people if you remove hijab you have lost faith long before.!
no sis, I'm sure they mean faith has weakened, not that they're gone. And like u said their are all sorts of people out there
Jiji F I wrote the same comment seems she is a revert to Islam! I grew Muslim speak Arabic as a primary language and knew straight she was a joke! I hope she reads and opens her eyes as I said hijab is optional and minor she needs to study the history of hijabs and veil
Baller do not defend the way she said is rude and ineffective many western raised Muslim girls struggle with and anyway it is not important
Asalaamu 'Alaikum,
Taking off your hijab doesn't mean you have lost complete faith. But, the Prophet SAW said that ' there are 70 branches of Imaan, and haya( or modesty ) is one of them '. It is agreed upon by all noteworthy scholars and people of knowledge that the hijab is wajib, that is rewarded when worn and is reprehensible when not worn.
There are lots of Good people who perhaps dont wear hijab, but they pray, they give charity, and they are trying their best Insha'Allah; but the hijab is part of a woman's modesty and this is agreed upon.
Maybe you dont wear hijab it doesn't make you a kaffir, but certainly it is not rewarded or loved by Allah
Allahumma Barik, may Allah give us tawfik
Love you emphasize Tawhid & Aqidah to women & children. but yea Tawhid is what makes ppl worship and enter into Islam.
When I am struggling I don’t ever leave my prayer and then I say to Allah you are the Merciful please open the door for me and I keep certainty that He is going to open.
Exactly, subban Allah how the love of Allah gets stronger with struggles. You are a good believer. May Allah strengthen our Iman. Ameen
Ameen 😊
Asalaamalaikum, these podcasts have been really meaningful and easy to relate too! I would just like to point out It is not a fair statement to assume that someone lost their faith because they took their hijab off. I appreciate that this is a series for sister. We talk about making it okay for sisters to talk to one another and share struggles. I have never heard anyone say a man lost his faith because he shaved his beard. We have always been and will continue being more judgmental to our sisters. Allah knows what sisters are going through.
May Allah swt make it easy upon all of us, Ameen!
❤️
Assalamuliluakum, perhaps she spoke sister that she had direct contact OR sister that sent in message to her. It was Not applied as a direct statement.
Allah knows best
Beard and Hijab is not the same. Men are not prescribed to grow a beard in a Quran whereas women are required to wear long garment that covers her whole body is in a Quran. Beard is sunnah and Hijab is wajib.
If you take off hijab knowing it's wajib, then unfortunate for you, because at some point in time, you disobeyed you Creator knowingly and you should repent before "you die".
I just came to say this, I don't observe hijab but I make my salaahs etc. If you speak to me all that comes out of my mouth is Allah and my love for Allah. The Muslim community automatically assumes sisters without hijab don't love Allah. There are sisters who observe hijab who "sin" its just not seen to others. So I think there should be no judgement for either Muslim. Islam and iman is ebb and flow (as much as we want to pretend to be perfect we aren't) Allah doesn't judge or turn anyone away if we come to him with he's affairs so why do humans judge and want to turn away other people. This is what turns away people from Islam
I completely agree sister Allah is the judge and sisters judging each other could be damaging their own character in the eyes of Allah
قُلْ يَا عِبَادِيَ الَّذِينَ أَسْرَفُوا عَلَىٰ أَنْفُسِهِمْ لَا تَقْنَطُوا مِنْ رَحْمَةِ اللَّهِ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ جَمِيعًا ۚ إِنَّهُ هُوَ الْغَفُورُ الرَّحِيمُ
Say: "O my Servants who have transgressed against their souls! Despair not of the Mercy of Allah. for Allah forgives all sins: for He is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
SubhanAllah.. I'm just amazing at how much you lot are a means of guidance 4 me... every episode is literally my state.. SubhanaAllah jazakallah so much may Allah reward you sisters.. cant wait 4 the next episode..
Maa sha Allah 👌🏽 May Allah continue to increase you sisters♥️♥️♥️ in ikmah and ilm. Live you trio for the pleasure of Allah. Just to reiterate what Sumayah mentioned, I believe it's mostly about the circle. Allah forbids your spouse is the reason you're losing faith. You've got to have a support system in place and that's your sisterhood circle. I like the showing up part, and not staying below the baseline even when the Sunnah cannot hold. However, my fear or should I say concern in that respect is, if the fard was the only baseline, it means the only way to go would be down. And for that, I'd say we should do check on each other regularly especially when the sister we know is usually cheerful or bubbly suddenly goes quiet.
*LOVE YOU TRIO*😉 👍🏽 🌺
This video is what I needed at the moment. I thought I was the only one who felt this way and didn’t know any other sister ever felt this. I do believe having a circle of friends in Islam is a great asset during your lows.
I decided to watch this episode of honest tea talk and the episode called highs and lows of faith, since my iman has been really weak and it was so difficult for me to find the motivation to even watch or do anything Islamic and watching these 2 episodes gave me the motivation to finally pray and gave me some reminders I needed to know. Thank you guys for what you do & Alhamdulilah for it being able to give me some motivation.
I lost my religion when I was a teen. I did not do my prayers, I struggled to continue and alhamdulillah with the help of Allah and my cousin I was able to get back to them and I never stopped since then. My prayers are an important part of my day. Now reflecting the thought about always having a baseline, I think that mine now is my prayers and my Hijab, they're both my survival kits if I may say alhamdulillah. I chose to wear Hijab when I was 13 and I never took it off since then alhamdulillah
Ustad Nouman Ali Khan was the one who showed me what Islam and Iman really is. His khutbahs are always rising my iman up and I fall in love with Allah swt and Islam. He explains the Ayahs of the Quran so easily and and shows us how to implement them in our lives. He set the foundation of Islam for me throgh his videos
He is truly the servant of Allah
Amazing talk. There is a psychiatric side to it I think. Patients who suffer from undiagnosed religious OCD particularly, may turn away from religion as the sight of masjid, the sight of an aya, the Quran can be a source of trigger of blasphemous thoughts. Ofcourse, there is the "waswasa" side of it but religious OCD is well-documented and responds highly to treatment. One of the advice I would give is that to make this problem known in our community as muslims, so that people get help and don't suffer unnecessarily. Allah knows best xx.
Yess sister I'm suffering from this only
I love this! I stumbled upon this show and we need respectful, educated, sophisticated, religious sisters to speak out and speak up about our beautiful religion. Thank you all for this wonderful show. May Allah the one and only strengthen our faith, brighten our hearts and bring us closer to him. Not to mention, YOU ALL ARE WEARING HIJAB the right way. Thank you. As a Muslim sister, I wore the Hijab few years back and I don't understand how some of us just play with it missing the true meaning of Hijab...which is modesty and totally covering the neck and hair.❤
I am a Muslim man and I love listening to you sisters. It's very inspirational. Mash Allah
Ya muqallibol qolobi thabit qalbee ala deenik
O Controller of the hearts, keep my heart firm upon Your deen
Ameen
Yes,we should recite this often and teach our kids also.alhamdolillah ,I do recite it and make sure my six year old daughter recite it also.
Salam alaykum sisters, great topic. I can relate to this subject. One suggestion I have is maybe doing a part 2 of this topic where it touches upon mental health as a cause of losing religion. Anxiety, depression, grief etc are a big contribution to people losing faith especially as its a taboo subject and many people cant seek help for fear of labeling and ridicule. I can say its something I personally went through and battled and alhamdulilah dhikr, dua and salah kept me grounded.
I think that sometimes it's unintentional because we're so busy trying to be superwomen (to our husbands, children, our family, his family, our friends, his friends, the community etc.) while taking care of the house and possibly studying and/or working . When we do this, usually the first thing we lose is the sunnah part of our salah and then the fardh salah gets rushed and shortened. Also, we don't make time to do our daily du'aas and reading the Qur'an, and before you know it we reach such a low point and we don't know how we got there.
At other times we're not as careful with ensuring that we don't follow weak opinions that justify things that we really want to do but that deep down make us uneasy and that most Muslims are warning us against (e.g. to do with wearing certain types of hijab, working/studying constantly with non-mahram men, dealing with interest, having questionable businesses etc.). These actions usually end up being an initial footstep from the footsteps of Shaytan that eventually lead us far from Allah and deeper into issues that are definitely haram. Here, we also reach a point where we don't recognise who we are anymore, physically in terms of our hijab or internally when it comes to our relationship with our Creator and the views that we hold deep within us.
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said, “Consult your heart. Righteousness is that about which the heart feels tranquil and the soul feels tranquil, and sin is that which wavers in the heart and moves to and fro in the breast even though people again and again have given you their legal opinion [in its favour].”
You are right may Allah rectify our affairs
سبحان الله you've hit the nail on the head with this tbh. I resonate completely with just going through the motions of being a mother and wife and next thing you know you unintentionally begin to neglect things you used to do because time just seems to go by doing other things .. its crazy how all of that then culminates and you're left thinking wow سبحان الله why does my heart feel like this? What am I doing to myself, you know. May Allah aid us in all our endeavours امين
Please make
A video to help the young girls of today age 14-20’s I find that girls are so misguided all they care about is looking good, makeup,dressing like a non Muslim, fake nails, no hijab and no salah not even jumah namaz. How does a parent deal with a child like this? I’m a parent who raised her child to pray from a young age but my two eldest daughters have lost their deen. الحمْدلله they have not committed major sin but in my eyes not doing your salah is a major sin and I can’t look at them I the same way. I can’t get through to them and I need help
Look up Ariba farheen, discover the power of salah. Maybe chat with your daughters about it and ask them why they think this has happened and how can they fix things. If they need help ask them how can we help each other. Have regular chats like this about topics they are struggling with or general topics to keep it on their mind.
make this dua its from Quran
رب اجعلني مقيم الصلاة ومن ذريتي ربنا وتقبل دعاء.
wake up in the middle of the night and make dua for them. a mother's dua is accepted as it's sincere.
Awesome series, totally hooked on to it. In fact binge watching it. Love the set and background. These are the kind of programs, with such aesthetics that are needed for Muslim and non muslim viewers. Because you first have to grab the attention of the one who's just scrolling and then comes the listening of the actual content. Great job. May Allah put barakah, loads n loads of it in your work
Salam Alaykum
I appreciate the points you ladies have made about what would lead a sister to check out. However, I feel like there are many points you didn't mention, including how Muslim women can go through a phase where they might feel like a lot of the things they're doing, such as wearing the hijab and just fulfilling certain "obligations" that Muslim men don't have to deal with, isn't placed on them by Allah, but more by the patriarchy system within Islam. A lot of individuals in my generation have those questions unanswered because although we are told to refer to the Qu'ran, a lot of stuff still don't make sense. So I think there is another intermediate between being 100% connected to the faith and completely losing it. The reason why I say this is because I definitely have not lost my connection with Allah, but I find it hard to practice the way we are "supposed to."

manobik Thank you for sharing this. I will definitely take a look at it. However, this doesn’t take away from the patriarchy issue within Islam and how it affects women and their faith.
Thank you sister. This is my first time watching. This was sent to me from a sister. I'm so thankful for receiving it. It was honest and strong talk. May Allah continue to bless this program.
What if the muslim person (either genders) have lost faith not because of a hardship their going through, but because of being confronted with facts, scientific and logical, that oppose what's been taught to us in the Quran & Sunnah, not just the laws that muslims make where it's more cultural than true islam?
Thank you so much for this episode. We don't talk enough about this reality.
Can I just cry for a minute 🤧🤧
Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love
asalam aleikum.i wish i was close to wipe the tears....indeed we should all cry and make more istighfar.
I love love love! This channel. You guys are my friends in my head.
Love you sisters ❤️
@ sister sumayyah, where did you learn your islamic knowledge especially tawheed (aqeeda), I learnt the basic in kenya...at the time I never knew the importance of it...and I left there when I was young..I just started learning online with youtube videos like usulu thalatha by sheikh Ahmad Musa jibril...so I will appreciate if you let me know in uk where I can learn that...am based in east london JazakaAllahu kheiran
I love watching you sisters. MashaAllah great job. To me I think people lose their faith because they don’t have the depth understand of the Quran.
What I mean is you really have to put an effort to learn Arabic and understand the tefseer in Arabic in order to feel it and really have that connection with Allah. Leaning the Quran from translation will not do it.
Samira Abdu learning the arabic and tafseer of the Quran is without a doubt, an aim that all Muslims should have and sincerely strive to achieve and implement however, respectfully I'd have to disagree with the fact that in order to truly "feel" the Qur'an you need to know arabic. Yes indeed, knowing Arabic would do great for improving that connection with Quran and ultimately Allah but I wholeheartedly believe that one can have a firm relationship with the Quran and Allah even before this.
The points are 👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾
When One is living with her spouse and realises her Imaan is low, she doesn't feel the taste in worshipping Allah. when he's not present or they don't talk for couple of hours or day/s bcoz they're angry at each other her Imaan grows and she enjos her worship and concentrate more ect. is Sheytaan playing his games in this marriage? is this normal in the first place?
Assalamualaikum can you sisters talk about haraam relationships?
Never not know or forget your lord has power over all things ask Allah to turn your heart back to its original state filled with imaan
Asalam Aleikum warahmatulah wabarakatuh. I think we should be more honest here ladies by the time a sister finds her self in such a mood is guilt. After a sin, like zinah or theft one is really guilty to go in front of Allah. I believe tests from Allah usually draw us nearer to Allah so He can get us through. Because we believe and know we have no where to run.
The best we can do is try and keep check on our company, friends. Try to fall in love with Allah always by remembering the good He has blessed us with in our personal lives. Sisters always look back where you came from and where you are. And then look at those who has less or going through much more pain than you. Then that will give you hope that your not at your worst. Allah does not burden a soul beyond what it can handle. Your stronger than you think.
I do applaud having such honest talks, but just like the episode of Pelogamy, where a man's view is needed in order to have a conversation from all sides. This also lacks people who actually struggle with Iman or did actually leave Islam. One perspective that was missing for me is about changing religion. Most people don't leave Islam to nothingness, they leave it to another religion, for example, to Christianity or Buddism. Just like many sisters did enter Islam from other religions, They could actually be seeking to what was perceived as a better connection to God.
Jazakallahu Khair. I lost my Salah for a few months. Being a mother, my small children refuse to allow me to offer Salah. pulled me away but I always had a sense of guilt. But Alhamdulilah I’m back and pleased
Jazakallahkhair! and I agree.... learning about Aqeedah is key. It was what I needed to solidify my faith when I made the conscious choice to be Muslim.
