  • Updated Post: How to Sleep When You Can't Using Ayatul Kursi | Mentally Fit Muslims
    When I find myself not being able to sleep, my mind wanders and it can lead me down a long, depressing, and anxious path. Trust me, I’ve been there too! But one thing that always helps calm the storm in my head is Ayatul Kursi. Simply reciting this powerful ayah or even listening to it offers solace for your soul.
    Listen to this week’s Mini Mental episode where I explore how listening to Allah’s words can put us at ease spiritually and emotionally by discussing a unique method of matching your mood to the reciter’s tone. The reciters mentioned are Qari Fatih Seferagic and Omar Hisham al Arabi.

  • Sr. Yasmin Mogahed and Depression - Mini Mental
    Season 1 Episode 2
    Here’s the quote in case you’d like to put it up as a reminder: 
    “To all those suffering from sadness or depression, know that it isn’t your fault. It isn’t because you’re weak. It isn’t because you’re just not grateful enough. It isn’t because you’re just not religious enough. It isn’t because you don’t have enough faith. It isn’t because God is angry with you. To all the well-meaning people who tell you this, just smile. And know deep in your heart that the tests of God come in different forms to different people. And know that, by the help of God, every test can become a tool to get closer to Him. And that, verily, with hardship come ease–and like all things of this world–this too shall pass.”

  • What Dua to Say When You are Angry
    “The powerful man is not the one who can wrestle but the powerful man is the one who can control himself at the time of anger.” Using that definition, which is a hadith by the Prophet sallAllahu alayhi wa alayhi wasalaam, how many of us can honestly say that, “Yes, I am powerful.”

  • Dua Hack for Anger - Mini Mental

    Season 2 Episode 12 Mini Mental

    Show Notes: https://mentallyfitmuslims.org/podcast/anger-dua/

    “The powerful man is not the one who can wrestle but the powerful man is the one who can control himself at the time of anger.” Using that definition, which is a hadith by the Prophet sallAllahu alayhi wa alayhi wasalaam, how many of us can honestly say that “Yes, I am powerful.”

    I don’t know about you but I can’t say that all the time. There are so many instances anger gets, the better of me. There are so many instances where I have such a tough time with anger. Now I’ve learned to see anger as a teachable moment, not as a friend, and not even as an enemy. It’s just another emotion, like depression or sadness or happiness or joy. It’s just there as part of my human experience.

    So the du’a that I use for anger is [...keep reading the transcript here]
