In this episode we're join by sisters Sarah Sultan (LPC, LMHC) and Najwa Awad (LSCW-C), who are both licensed professional counsellors and psychotherapists respectively, and also authors of the 'Trauma Series: Your Lord Has Not Forsaken You' at Yaqeen Institute for Islamic Research.

Both Sarah and Najwa have a wealth of experience in exploring the links between spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical health, and throughout this episode take us on a journey of understanding why individuals may ask themselves the question:

"Why does Allah hate me?!"

Experiencing lows in our spirituality from time to time is common for all of us, however feeling deep levels of distress and hopelessness that stems from the assumption that Allah (swt) Himself is unhappy with us can translate into a number of other issues.

Why do we come to this conclusion? What thought processes and feelings lead us to believing this?

In this eye-opening episode, we explore how negative thoughts of one's self and even past traumatic experiences can affect our relationship with Allah (swt).
