“Finding the Right Partner to Pursue Your Purpose”


TaHa 29-37


Asking for help is not easy.  You need to trust the other person enough to rely on them and be confident enough in yourself to admit you can’t do it alone.  In this episode Dalia Mogahed and Imam Magid explore the importance of community, companionship and commitment to the greater good over one’s own credit as they discuss the story of Musa (s) asking

Allah for his brother Haroon’s (s) partnership in facing Pharoah.  They also delve into the central role of dhikr in individual and community resilience. 


You will learn: 


  • 📖 Why leaders need strong partners

  • 📖 The power of dhikr in building psychological resilience

  • 📖 The importance of solitary and social dhikr

  • 📖 The role of angels in remembrance

  • 📖 The secret behind praising Allah in nature 

  • 📖 Why we make dua if Allah already knows what we need


  • Vocabulary

    Wird: A prescribed litany or set of daily prayers and invocations recited regularly

    Sohba: Companionship
