Is anxiety robbing your sleep these days?

In this video, Shaykh Muhammad Alshareef (rA) discussed the prophetic teachings of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)…

…to deal with the worst anxieties we experience from time to time. 

Not just us, but Sahabas before the Battle of Badr were worried because the odds were stacked against them.

But Allah provided them with a restful sleep and rain to ease their anxiety. 

And everyone knew what happened after that.

You see, every hardship we face is from Allah…

And He doesn’t burden us with a weight we can’t handle.

So no matter how terrifyingly our anxiety gets the better of us…

Allah has given us the strength to ward it off.

As humans, our minds are wired to go into alert mode when we feel just a little bit unsafe.

So, make a habit of creating a calm and safe environment.

If you can’t create one, then go find a place that gives you this feeling.
Whether it's enjoying a warm cup of tea, listening to the soothing sound of rain…

…or burning incense, finding what works for you is essential. 

Many of us find comfort in simple, sensory experiences rather than turning to social media, which often intensifies anxiety.
And as far as social media goes…

There’s a sea of misinformation out there.

Even if the news is authentic, one negative post is enough to alleviate our anxiety even more.

So, find out what brings you peace and stick with it.

Keep your mind calm enough to not let anxiety get the better of you every time.

And always, always turn to Allah (swt) because He always has your back.
