Your family can be your greatest blessing or your greatest test. You may pray for a peaceful family, and for Allah to protect them, but sometimes the conflict comes from within. Depending on your upbringing, you can feel strength and confidence from your caretakers, or a strong internal critic from unfair parenting or expectations. But there is wisdom in the circumstance of your family, and the person it shaped you to become. What lessons can you learn (or unlearn) from your parents, your family, and their sacrifice?

لَا تَصْحَبْ مَنْ لَا يُنْهِضُك حَالُهُ، وَلَا يَدُلُّك عَلَى اللَّهِ مَقَالُهُ

Note: Only vocals were used in the making of the soundtrack.
As we venture into the space of producing higher quality media, we’ve worked hard to make sure that our compliance with our religious ethics is not sacrificed. While Yaqeen has always produced vocals for our Ramadan series, this series was unique in that it also included the story of a family in the background. Our talented production team worked with our scholars to ensure that all actors were in proper hijab, and that all gender interactions were only by Mahrams in real life. We’re grateful to the team for its wonderful effort, and grateful to the families that agreed to participate.

This video will be cherished for generations to come.. Mashallah
By Allah this series is talking about questions that I asked myself when I was Ten years old, most of them I got answers at that time and now here I am the memories coming back and it is answering new questions I tired of 😢😢😢
This one touched me may Allah make it easy
Really good vedeo
Ameen
May Allah SWT guide my father,he is so harsh towards us ,he always says harsh to us 😞
7:40. This hit harder than it should've. The best man in all of humanity and yet he was an orphan.
Is anyone eles having an issue with the donate link?
When Sheikh said the prophet SAW is our father.. it hit deep especially since I've always thought I could have had a better father figure. Jazakallahukhair for this series, sheikh and yaqeen institute team. ❤
This series is healing me
Do not keep company with anyone whose state does not inspire you, and whose speech does not lead you to Allah. ❤
Subhanallah Thank you Dear dr Omar Sulaiman 🫶🏻
Needed to hear this… May Allah make it easy for all of us who are struggling
Who is the reciter at the end of the video? JazakAllah khayr
Yaqeens series are always so beautiful ❤
how beautiful this series is!! May Allah make from those who accepted and reflected the message of Allah.
I honestly wish somebody would call out bad mothers who destroy their children's lives. Some women are violent and narcissistic and do great damage. The result, in my case is choosing to not have children of my own. I believe l made a wise decision.
This episode feels really personal. May Allah forgive and guide us all 🙏🏽
You may have no idea Shaikh Omar as to how many of those thousands who have faced parental abuse and are caught in an extremely soul wrenching battle between how to create a safe distance with abusive parents, and still not having the guilt of being a tyrant themselves abandoning their parents specially when they may be ailing or have attained old age are going to have a way of putting into perspective what happened with them and why it all happened and hence chart out the best way forward. Just this one episode and those words u said there can emancipate the pain and suffering of so many. May Allah bless you with peace .
where is episode 3 why me?
i was just talking about childhood and the influence of our parents' parenting style with my friends yesterday! so spot on! – oh, and to not keep company with those whos state does not inspire you, and whose speech does not lead you to Allah.. i really need to reflect on that
