About this episode

This week, we begin a study of some cognitive distortions that can lead to maladaptive feelings and/or behaviours. We begin with a study of Surat Ad-Duha which provides us with a framework on how to begin healing from our pain. In this surah, Allah Most High addressed Prophet Muhammad ﷺ when he was sad and anxious. Ad-Duha is the Arabic word for “dawn,” which is quite an appropriate metaphor for what this surah offers—a light at the end of a tunnel of darkness. This chapter of the Qur’an provides us with a glimpse as to how Allah Most High, the One and Only God, comforted Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, the best of mankind.
