Does Allah Want You to Feel Better? | Khutbah by Dr. Omar Suleiman
Islam values emotional well-being and encourages us to care for our mental health, but faith is not meant to be reduced to a tool for self-soothing alone. Allah says, “Do not grieve or despair,” yet He also reminds us that this life is a test, one that involves hardship as much as it does ease.

How to NOT Lose People’s Trust | Dr. Omar Suleiman
Want to know what kind of Muslim you truly are? Pay attention to how people react around you. In this powerful message, Dr. Omar Suleiman reminds us that good character isn't just about personal piety. It's also about being someone others feel safe around. He contrasts this with the painful reality of Muslims who have let their brothers and sisters in Gaza down, not through direct harm, but through silence and inaction when they were most needed.
