About this episode

Qadr, the divine decree, highlights Allah's control over everything, while Sabr, or patience, is a virtue urging steadfastness in the face of challenges. These concepts are intertwined, with Sabr being a means to accept and navigate Allah's Qadr. Muslims are encouraged to cultivate patience, trusting in Allah's wisdom and viewing challenges as tests of faith.
