The final class of this series focussing on the ‘relationship with our nafs’.

This lesson explores our relationship with mankind through our relationship with our brothers and sisters suffering in around the world, particularly Gaza.

Continuing our ‘Healing through the Quran’ series, this class focuses on healing the relationships in our life, whether it’s our relationship with Allah SWT, with each other, or with ourselves, our nafs❤️‍🩹

Allah says that the Quran is “a healing for whatever is in the heart”

For diseases like anger, jealousy, greed, lust, animosity, apathy, doubts

For injuries like trauma, sadness, loneliness, anxiety, stress, insecurities

Whatever burdens you carry in your heart…the Quran is your healing ❤️‍🩹

This Ramadan, our Faith Circle program will go through the entire Quran, week by week and highlight the verses, themes and concepts that heal our trauma, cure our diseases and bring us from darkness into the light. 🫶🏼
