Why do innocent people suffer? Why is there so much tragedy happening around the world?
When these questions fill your mind, be grateful. It means that you have a heart that is not numb to the struggles of your fellow humans.
There are many answers to these questions from an Islamic perspective, and each takes time to explore. But as an individual, the most important thing you can do is ask yourself the corresponding questions: When innocent people suffer, what can you do? What is your role? How can the suffering of others snap you out of complacency and into action to alleviate the pain of your brothers and sisters in humanity?

If you want the door of hope opened for you, then consider what comes to you from Him. But if you want the door of fear opened for you, then consider what goes to Him from you.

Note: Only vocals were used in the making of the soundtrack.
As we venture into the space of producing higher quality media, we’ve worked hard to make sure that our compliance with our religious ethics is not sacrificed. While Yaqeen has always produced vocals for our Ramadan series, this series was unique in that it also included the story of a family in the background. Our talented production team worked with our scholars to ensure that all actors were in proper hijab, and that all gender interactions were only by Mahrams in real life. We’re grateful to the team for its wonderful effort, and grateful to the families that agreed to participate.

I really needed this episode today! My heart was burning with pain and anger seeing the pictures of Al Shifa hospital. Alhamdulilah this has calmed me down and I am now back to focusing again.
Same here 💔 may Allah strength our imman and our souls.🤲
Just it's title is so inspiring. Alhamdullah am a Muslim and may Allah guide those out of Islam to this beautiful religion.
Aameen
Ameen!
What is the original title? I only see it translated in my native language and can't change it
May ALLAH also guide us (Muslims) to the RIGHT PATH (SIRAT-E-MUSTAQEEM).
Ameen
Allahumma ameen 🤲🏾
@@soumaya4960"Why is there so much suffering in the world?" Is the title
Reason for so much suffering in the world? Because Allah wants to us to return to Him in gratitude, get better relationship with Him, appreciate the blessings we have been taking for granted and in Sha Allah be saved from hell fire and get admitted to Jannatul firdaus. Ya Allah count us among those you saved from the torment of the grave and hell fire and admit us to Jannatul firdaus
Aaaaameeeeeen ya rabbi
Also to find the peace with Allah. Ameen
Ameen
Ameen yaa rabbi.
Allahuma Ameen 😊
O Allah, help and protect the people of Palestine, Lebanon, Yemen, Syria, China, Myanmar, India, Bangladesh, Uyghurs, Rohingya, Sudan, and all places where Muslims and non-Muslims face oppression. O Allah, ease their pain and suffering. O Allah, bestow Your mercy on every soul in hardship. O Allah, open people's hearts to stand for justice and give generously in this time of need. Ameen Ya Rabbul Alameen
O Allah we are very week as Ummat please help us to help our Muslims brothers and sisters in Gaza
Amin
Grant us the strength and wisdom we need to fight again the firhaun of our generation 🤲
Yeah indeed were very weak, and ameen ya rabb.
Places like Dubai are making Muslims look awful
Ameen Ya Rab
Salaam everyone. If you have been touched by this series, don't forget to donate so they can continue to make inspiring series for us.
Exactly. Estimate how much you would have paid for this series, and actually pay it. They give us this content for free, but the thing is, even acts done for the sake of Allah require money to be produced
My husband and i struggled with infertility for 3 yrs now and i was told its impossible for me to get pregnant with my age (37) and my condition (endometriosis). We decided to pass on IVF (in vitro fertilization) and do tawwakul instead. May Allah grant us HIS divine mercy..
Amin ya Rabbi alamin
May Allah make it easy for you and may He answer your prayers in the most beautiful way 🤲🏾
Keep your tongue moist with "istighfaar" Allah will in chaa Allah grant you children.
فقلت استغفروا ربكم انه كان غفارا. يرسل السماء عليكم مدرارا. ويمددكم باموال *وبنين* ويجعلكم جنات....
Istighfaar is the door for infertility. Ask God with firm belief that you'll be answered despite the hopeless medical result you've got.
May Allah swt grant you pious offsprings amin. Any particular reason you decided not to do IVF?
@@nonamejusme it expensive here sister.. and our doctor said IVF has only 17% success rate..
@@paigesm466 Oh I see... Which country is that?
Of all the series I have listened to, the Qadr series has been so inspiring and uplifting, especially with everything going on in Falasteen, Sudan and elsewhere in the world. On a more personal level its forced me to reflect on what my purpose in this temporary life is, and that I am a steward of Islam and to do what I can, and say alhumdulillah for everything. Thank you to every single person at Yaqeen. I pray I get to continue to contribute and donate to such an important cause in our day and age...
We need a Yaqeen sibling in England please! I pray you guys will be able to do it in the near future if able to. Salaam
Ya Allah Help and Protect the People of Palestine 🇵🇸
Ya Allah, Ease their Pain and Suffering, Ya Allah Bestower of Mercy, Bestow Your Mercy on Them, Ya Allah Open People's Hearts to Give in This Time of Crisis, Ya Allah Help Those Who are in Need Wherever they May be.
A'ameen Ya Rabbil A'alameen 🤲
Aameen ya Rabbul aalameen!
Ameen Ya Rabb!🤲
Allahumma Aameen 🤲
Please say 100 times:
Astaghfirullah
Alhamdulillah
Allahu Akbar
Subhan Allah
La ilaha illa Allah
May we all catch laylatul qadr in shaa Allah ameen
Only 100 times.?
Why not 3000 times.?
Aameen
@@vasilispatsalidis5683 - 70/100 times is Sunnah , extension to that number is upon the person , hence, be it 3k or Billions ...
“If you want the door of hope open for you , then consider what comes to you from Him. But if you want the door of fear open for you , then consider what goes to Him from you. “ such beautiful words of wisdom!
When I was a teen I thought someone will definitely break my heart but I didn't knew it would be Palestine. May Almighty Alone rise you in this world n hereafter. Amin
Shokran, Imam Suleiman. I wept when you spoke to the frustration of feeling helpless. As a 20+ year activist for Palestine, especially Gaza, I've felt like a failure, that it's gotten past us and to this point...genocide.
Your words were a salve to my heart, and reminds me again and again why doing this work is the most rewarding: Gazans teach life.
So again, thank you for the much needed words. May you be blessed this Laylatul Qadr.
May Allah reward you for your decades of activism.
Take example of the prophets Nuh, Hud, Salih... they all preached tirelessly to their people, and yet Allah destroyed their people. Does it mean that they failed? No! They did their best, and Allah rewards them for that inshaAllah
Dear Imam and Yaqeen institute, you cannot imagine how beneficial it would be for the Umma to have your dars translated into French. May Allah reward you immensely. I would offer my time to translate some of it and I am sure that over French-native speakers would do. We are lacking or do not find easily powerful dars which can elevate us spiritually in the francophone era. May Allah bless you.
I'd be happy and honored to translate into French as well!
There are subtitles in French and many other languages!
Besides English and Arabic, there are literally 7 other languages including French. There’s closed captions. Press it in the video settings. These guys know what their doing and know their viewers they obviously got Urdu too 😂
As This Year’s Ramadan is coming to an end, I pray that Allah Accept all our act of worship during this month, forgive all our sins and make us good people to the umah
Finally something to relate.
the actor is so good, he is truly going thru it in each episode
right🎉❤
They are a family in real life too
Hello, I feel empowered by your amazing videos about spirituality, I have been reading up more about Islam but I am a non Muslim & a free thinker. 😊
May Allah guide you to Islam ❤
@@mariamjinad8415Thankw so much. 😊
Hey, may peace be upon you! Feel free to ask if you have questions on Islam
@@soumaya4960 I would like to find out how I am able to go for Islamic classes & then convert to Islam in Singapore. 😊
@@MsLilac88 google to see what mosque is closest to you or go to your local mosque if you have one. If you go in and ask they will be more than willing to help you❤ all the best sis may Allah make it easy for you
Thank you Yaqeen for helping Muslims answering difficult questions in life. Questions mostly we shy away asking afraid of being judged.
omar opens up your heart, brain and mind in ways you can’t possibly explain. wish this series could continue for a lifetime. may ALLAH bless omar and all the cast involved ❤️🩹🙏🏽
Ya Allah please help the ummah Ameen yarabi
I wish that you convert this beautiful series into book
Every year, his book is published based on his series every year, Insya' Allah.
Of the dua's of the Prophet SallAllahu 'Alaihi Wasallam was:
Labbayka wa sa'dayk wal khairu
kulluhu biyadayka washarru laysa ilayk
anna bika wa ilayka tabaarakta wata'aa layt
"Here I am, O Allah, in answer to Your call, happy to serve You. All good is in Your Hands, and evil should never be attributed to You. I exist by Your will and will return to You. How Blessed and Exalted are You."
اللهم صل وسلم وبارك على سيدنا محمد وعلى آله وصحبه وسلم
Allahumma innaka ‘afuwwun tuhibbul-‘afwa, fa’fu ‘anni
May Allah bless our brothers and sisters of ummah with Jannah ❤
Aameen summa Aameen ❤
May Allah protect all oppressed people across the world. We need to rise as a Muslim Ummah. The tide is shifting! May Allah grant us all the strength to play our part and show up for our fellow brethren!
Our tanks to Yaqeen for such relevant content. May Allah swt increase you all. May we all benefit from the blessings of Laylatul Qdr and may the ummah become light.
Jazakum Allah khair to everyone who participated in making this series come to existence بادن الله, and to everyone watching and praying for Palestine please equally include Sudan in your prayers as it is going through a tragic war. May we all witness Laylat al Qadr and have all our Dua'as accepted, Ameen.
Every one of these videos has touched my heart in so many beautiful ways. The reminders that my soul needed not only in Ramadan, but every single day. JazakumAllah khair to Dr Omar and the entire production team 🙏🏿🤍🕊🇵🇸
Yaqeen Institute is top notch MashaAllah tabarakAllah.
Indeed this series is so touching and heartfelt. So extremely helpful in making sense of sad and chaotic thoughts.
جزاك الله خيرا
Subhanallah I definitely cried on this one thank you Dr Omar Suliman and Yaqeen
You have truly put an excellent perspective to contemplate on
May Allah reward you for all your efforts Ameen
جزاك الله خيرا
I honestly believe الله سبحانه و تعالى had guided you Sh Sulaiman and your Yaqeen team to make this series at this time, especially as we are witnessing Gaza.
It’s answering so many unanswered questions. Clarifying that which was confusing.
A beautiful series with episode having a significant message.
Each episode bears rewatching.
May Allah S.W.T protect all the oppressed people around the world and ease their suffering ameen 🙏
Ameen
I believe this things happen because they all alive Allah has created all and has given all its duty, the rain fall as a duty, earthquake has a duty , war has a duty and they are all doing their duty in all of this we are to turn back to Allah
Assalamualaikum. It is actually Allah's Test. It was my mistake earlier blame Allah and Asking Allah Why me? But I finally realised He's the best planner. Perhaps He's saving me from something bad in the future. And here it is. I am grateful tof Allah.
Allahamdulillah
I Ilahay haku xifdiyo Dr Suleman
Ameen illahi haxifdiyo
God have mercy on us and the people of Palestine and all the oppressed
Ameen
Allah give you a good health ever and be shine like you make our ramadan full of shin
Seeing the tragedy that's unfolding in Gaza breaks my heart. Watching them on my screen without being able to do much except dua. Ya Allah, please give them justice and increase us in patience 🙏
remember to say alahumma innaka afouan tohibbon afua fafoannaa because on one ofthe last ten nights is laylatul qadr also try to read more quran and pray more salah because this night is bettter than a thousan months of worship
Thank you for these beautiful series, may Allah bless the team immensely!

Rabbana atina fi dunya hasanatan wa fil akhirati hasanatan waqina 'adhaban-nar
Our Lord, give us in this world [that which is] good and in the Hereafter [that which is] good and protect us from the punishment of the Fire.
Alhamdullilah for everything, I cant help but to comment on how as I watch this video the like are increasing like crazy Alluhma barik
This is gonna be so emotional and relatable. Much-needed!!
As he said, the chaos of this world was also meant to drive us to be a source of peace. Find a way to be a source of peace to each other ❤
Here’s some quick daily Dhikr to say:
- سبحان الله وبحمده سبحان الله العظيم (Subhanallahi Wa Bihamdihi Subhanallahil-Adheem) x5
This Dhikr weighs the most on the scale!
- لا إله إلّا الله (La ilaaha ilallah) x5
- سبحان الله (Subhanallah) x5
- الحمد لله (Alhamdulillah) x5
- الله اكبر (Allahu Akbar) x5
Congrats, you just got lots of rewards. Please share so it can be Sadaqah Jaariyah for you and me 😊
May Allah make us among the righteous, and grant us Jannat ul firdous Ameen
I have been watching each episode and recollecting every inch of my existence. From the title it shows how much effort has been put into understanding the different emotions everyone is suffering. I have myself experienced trauma and come out stronger with the connection to Allah and may Allah make that bond stronger than ever. These episodes by Omar Suleiman have been truly inspiring alhamdullilah. A huge Jzk to everyone who has worked together to put these episodes together. Truly suffering is a means for us to move closer to Allah SWT. May Allah ease the pain for those who are inflicted with atrocities and may Allah accept our duas donations on their behalf. Duas for this sister as well to find a spouse who will be the coolness of her eyes and pious children. Ameen.
Great job everyone for all of theee episodes. Everyone did very well, including actors, sound engineering, decoration and fashion, music and narrative, every single one. ❤ may Allah accept your deeds
May Allah be with brothers and sisters in Gaza
I love them for the sake of Allah and i pray for them everytime 🤲🏻
I love this series. It is thoughtfully portrayed and the advice goes beyond surface level. We gain perspective for both our Worlds. Jazakallah khair for the previous night's webathon as well! So much to remember and act upon. I wish I grew up with Yaqeen as a child (where was Yaqeen in '84? :)))
Please make Duaa for Sudan as well everyone ❤️ JAK
Allah u Akbar ❤️
Alhamdulillah I m grateful ya Allah
Editing is on point!! My God.. What a magnificent editing this video has!
Maa Shaa Allah, I do smile of watching this series and I realized how lucky I am to be a Muslim. May Allah grant peace to Palestine and may grant the ummah steadfastness on to the Deen. Ameen
Jazakalah,khairan Sheikh Omar suleiman 🤲
The genocide in Gaza has changed us all, individually and collectively. As an Ummah, we must stand up and straighten the rows, become better Muslims, educate ourselves more, gain deeper knowledge of our religion, and cultivate discipline to reach our highest potential. We have to ensure that what happens to our brothers and sisters in Gaza never happens again to any Muslim on this Earth or to any human being.
Unfortunately the suffering of the Palestinian people has been going on for years. But the Muslim world has really done nothing for them. Most Muslims didn’t even boycott the businesses that support the Zionists. That’s why they have McDonalds in Medina and Muslims all over the world have been having Coca Cola for years.
SubhanAllah.heart peircing reminder to the ummah.hasbiyaAllah wa ni'mal wakeel
صلى الله على سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم مىة ألف مرة ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

And never think of those who have been killed in the cause of Allah as dead. Rather, they are alive with their Lord, receiving provision
Oh Allah grant the highest place in Jannah for the martyrs in Palestine and for the Muslims all over the world
