Ya rabb, and some pain/losses arrive with a funeral.

While, others unfold in our lives subtly over months or years, leaving us wondering when everything changed.

In today's episode, we reflect on the story of Nabi Ya'qub عليه السلام and what his grief teaches us about bringing sorrow back to Allah. Together, we'll make heartfelt duas for the relationships that have changed, the people we continue loving, and the hope of being reunited in Jannah.

Whether you're grieving someone who has passed away, navigating a relationship that no longer feels the same, or learning how to trust Allah after loss, I pray these words become a source of comfort for your heart.

May Allah comfort every grieving heart, replace every hardship with something better, and reunite us with those we love in Jannatul Firdaws. Ameen.

Family can become one of our greatest sources of comfort, and at times, one of our deepest tests.

In today's episode, we're talking about family hurt, the conversations we avoid, the grief we carry, and the hope Allah SWT gives us when relationships feel complicated. Together, we'll reflect on a beautiful hadith of the Prophet ﷺ before ending with ten heartfelt duas for our parents, marriages, siblings, children, and the people we continue loving for the sake of Allah.

May this episode remind you that no family story is beyond the mercy of Allah, and that every sincere dua you make is heard by the One who knows your heart completely.

If this episode brought you comfort, consider sharing it with someone you love. You never know whose heart may have been making these same duas.

May Allah protect your family ties, place mercy within your home, soften every heart that has become distant, and gather you with those you love in Jannatul Firdaws.

Thank you for listening to this week's episode of Kind Notes with Halima.

After some time away, I'm grateful to finally be back behind the mic. In this episode, I share a little about the season I've been in, what Allah SWT has been teaching me through it, and why I'm so excited to invite you into something that has been on my heart for a long time.

If you've been longing to spend intentional time making dua, I would love for you to join me for The Dua Reset.

Each month, we gather as sisters to dedicate one hour to Allah SWT through reflection, guided prompts, and heartfelt dua. Together, we'll spend time with the stories of the Prophets, peace be upon them, reflect on what Allah teaches us through them, and write the duas our hearts have been needing.

Our July workshop is centred on family, exploring the relationships that shape us, the prayers we've been carrying for the people we love, and the hope that comes from placing every part of that before Allah.

I pray you'll join us.

May Allah gather us with the best, and may we be the best with those He gathers us with.

May you always hold on to the worship of dua. May the act of worship, returning to Allah, and spending that time with Allah, may it mean more to us than the outcome of what Our Rabb could give us.

Ya Allah, do not let what we feel consume us and overwhlem us. Ya Wadud, pour over us Your mercy, and Your love for us. May a minute never pass us without us spending it with You, in Your care.

May our success always include Allah. May everything we do, always come back to Him, and our goals with Him. May He bless them and extend His favour over us.

May we always be of those, who ask forgiveness as a practice of our lives, recognizing, the best of those are always those who go before Allah humble, with humility, to ask of Him His mercy in this world and in His next.

Ya Allah, I ask of You a family You love for me, in whatever shape You feel is best. Make us righteous, gathered together always in Your name.

May your victory be near, and may His mercy always keep close.
