Grief And Nearness to God (12:85-88) | Season 2, Episode 2

How should we grieve? Is there an expiration date, or one right way to feel our sorrow?  Is “getting over it” the healthy option? How should we treat a grieving family member? Are there spiritual benefits to grieving?  In this episode of Quran Conversations, Imam Muhammad Majid and I explore how Yaqub (s) models grieving and parenting children who have committed a grievous act of transgression.    You will learn:📖 How to support a grieving loved one.📖 How to continue to hold space for children who behave in ways you don’t approve.📖 What it means to see grief as a pathway to nearness to Allah.📖 Why taking action to correct a wrong is necessary in seeking forgiveness. If you’re enjoying this podcast, please review it on your podcasting platform.  It helps more than you know. @Quran.Conversations is sponsored by Fawakih, an online learning platform for Quranic Arabic which I myself use.  Start your journey in unlocking the language of the Quran.  Go to Fawakih.orgWe hope this podcast encourages your own reflective journey with the Quran.
