Ustadha Rania Awaad
Raised in the U.S., Ustadha Rania Awaad began her formal study of the traditional Islamic sciences when her parents permitted her to travel to Damascus, Syria, at 14. Her desire to continue studying the Deen resulted in multiple trips back to Damascus, interspersed between her high school, college, and medical studies. She was honored to receive Ijaazah (authorization to teach) several branches of the Shari’ah sciences at the hands of many renowned scholars, including many female scholars. She has received Ijaazah to teach Tajwid in the Hafs and Warsh recitations from the late eminent Syrian scholar Shaykh Abu Hassan al-Kurdi. In addition to completing several advanced texts of the Shafi’i madhhab, she is licensed to teach texts of Maliki fiqh, Adab and Ihsan. Currently, Ustadha Rania teaches online and local classes for The Rahmah Foundation, Rabata, and is on the faculty of Zaytuna College, where she teaches courses in Shafi’i fiqh, women’s issues in fiqh, and has helped develop and co-direct the Tajweed and Hifz program.
Ustadha Rania is also a medical doctor with a specialty in Psychiatry. She completed her Psychiatric residency and fellowship training at Stanford University, where she is currently on the faculty as a Clinical Instructor in the Stanford Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences department. Her medical interests include addressing mental health care concerns in the Muslim community- particularly that of Muslim women and girls. She has been awarded grants from the NIMH (National Institute of Mental Health) to conduct research on this topic and has presented her findings at several medical conferences. Other ongoing endeavors include compiling manuscripts addressing female-related mental health and medical issues from a fiqh-oriented perspective. She currently serves as the Director of the Rahmah Foundation, a non-profit organization that teaches Muslim women and girls traditional Islamic knowledge. In this capacity, she also heads the Murbbiyah Mentoring Program, which trains young women to teach and mentor Muslim girls and teens. Ustadha Rania is both a wife and a mother; she has been counseling and teaching women classes on Tajwid, Shafi’i Fiqh, Ihsan, marriage, and raising children since 1999.

Allah swt tests those he wants to excel!
Allhamdolillah for these reminders. My father passed away 2 months ago my family made me homeless and mocked Allah the almighty magnificent and I'm out of the will. Allhamdolillah!!!!! TAKBEEERRRRRRRRRRR . I'VE witnessed people's true evils and those who are really out of the fold of Islam. Whatever the situation be strong and mindful of Allah the almighty magnificent. These sisters are sincere and important for the sisters. To loose emaan is certainly dangerous

Jazakillah khayr for sharing this session with the rest of the world! I truly hope the program on Sunday will be shared with us here too
Plead to the King! Don’t question
You can’t control being sad about things. And the test of the donya can be great. But we do our best to be patient and ask Allah to help us through it. We don’t walk away from the One who can actually help us through the hardship
May Allah s.w.t. protect me and those around me from being infected and down with sickness of self-entitled, privileged, ungrateful, little-to-no action but complaints on what Allah bestow on me/us. Truly hope Allah s.w.t. in His infinite Wisdom, Mercy and Rahmah to protect us from thoughts and uttering of words to equivalent of "Why Me/Us, Why Now, etc.," and from lack of patience, perseverance, etiquette, courtesy, wisdom. Allahumma Ameen 🤲😀.

'Abdullah ibn 'Amr said, "The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, was neither coarse nor loud. He used to say, "The best of you is the one who has the best character."
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو قَالَ: لَمْ يَكُنِ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَاحِشًا وَلاَ مُتَفَحِّشًا، وَكَانَ يَقُولُ: خِيَارُكُمْ أَحَاسِنُكُمْ أَخْلاَقًا.
