Does Allah Want You to Feel Better? | Kh...

YAQEEN INSTITUTE
About this episode
Islam values emotional well-being and encourages us to care for our mental health, but faith is not meant to be reduced to a tool for self-soothing alone. Allah says, “Do not grieve or despair,” yet He also reminds us that this life is a test, one that involves hardship as much as it does ease.
