This Dhul-Hijjah, turn your giving into lasting reward. Automate your 10 day donation to Yaqeen: yqn.io/97s0 Can you long to meet Allah even if you fear death? In the first episode of The Book of Heart Softeners, Sh. Omar Suleiman and Sh. Ali Hammuda reflect on the profound hadith: “Whoever loves to meet Allah, Allah loves to meet them.” Together, they explore the believer’s relationship with death, longing for the Hereafter, fearing Allah while hoping in Him, and how sincere striving transforms fear into anticipation. As Dhul Hijjah begins, this conversation invites you to rethink your attachment to dunya and renew your yearning for Allah’s mercy, pleasure, and ultimately, your meeting with Him.
