Why Were These People Put in My Life? Why Me? EP. 14 | Dr. Omar Suleiman A Ramadan Series on Qadar



This Ramadan, let your rizq raise a voice for the ummah. https://yqn.io/utw

People can be the greatest blessing in your life, but they can also be the source of immense pain. But why does Allah put evil people in your life? And how do you show grace to those who’ve wronged you? Getting over heartbreak and betrayal and controlling your anger and envy may be difficult, but it isn’t impossible, and the wisdom in Islamic tradition is rife with practical advice and motivation.

Al-Hikam al-Ataa’iyyah 44:

رُبَّمَا كُنْتَ مُسِيئًا فَأَرَاكَ الإِحْسَانَ مِنْكَ صُحْبَتُكَ مَنْ هوَ أَسْوَأُ حَالاً مِنْكَ

You might be in a bad state; then, your associating with one who is in a worse state makes you see virtue in yourself.

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.

  2. Our Palestinian brothers and sisters with their amazing resilience. Showing us what it is to be Muslim, to be of the Mu’minun. They are the best of us. The best of this ummah. And it cannot be removed by bombs, propaganda and military power. We love you Palestine. You will be free ‎ان شاءالله 
    You are already victorious.

  3. May Allah SWT grant you a castle in Jannah and reunite you with your dear mother, your daily videos are a blessing to the broken hearts and souls especially during this time where our faith is tested whilst witnessing our brothers and sisters in Gaza suffer the most horrific atrocities.

  4. I appreciate Dr. Omer Suleiman's views about pain and suffering coming from Allah (swt) to test us and we should respond with the virtue of "Patience", However, I would like to add an another dimension to it, Sometimes the pain and suffering comes to us from Allah (swt) as a punishment !!
    So we should not just sit back doing "Sabr – Patience " but we should also do lots of reflection on what we have done wrong in the past and plead to Allah (swt) to help let us realise what sins we committed in the past and are ignorant about them !! and to do Tauba – Istighfar seeking forgiveness for those sins that could be the cause of the pain and suffering as a form of Divine Wrath – Punishment !!

  6. I am troubled by something very similar to the topic of the past few videos. I kept spiraling and asking Allah SWT for guidance. He guided me towards these videos. Before that, I thought Allah SWT had abandoned me. But He just showed me what I needed to see, as I was blinded by my rage and heart break. May He guide us all. Ameen.
