Four Years On // Season 4, Episode 1 | Honest Tea Talk

[@El_Magalla]

Subhan Allah, a very interesting point to reflect on. Where were we 4 years ago and where are we now? Life is so strange. When I first stumbled upon this series 4 years ago, I was in a non Muslim country, practicing my profession... I'm now an ocean away, in a place where I hear the adhan daily, I'm married and have a child, put my profession to one side to experiment with something totally unrelated to what I was formally trained in. Subhan Allah - someone from Gaza could have stumbled upon these discussions 4 years ago, only to find themselves wandering around amidst a genocide, dodging bombs, alone, with their dearest and most beloved gone.. There are prisoners from the jails of Bashar Al Asad who were locked up without the hope of ever seeing the light of day again, only to find themselves today being released into a Syria that is totally different to the one they bid farewell to before their incarceration... So much happens in life, yet, once it has passed, it feels like it was only an hour. So much 'life' has happened, and the question is - spiritually, how much have we progressed? How much Quran have we memorised, how much of what we knew have we revised? How much Islamic knowledge have we gained, and how much more knowledge have actually applied to our daily lives? I think back and we've been through so many life events over the past 4 years, but spiritually I feel that I haven't moved forwards in those four years as much as I should have. But so long as we are still alive and have agency over our mental faculties, there is hope. May Allah forgive us for our shortcomings and give us the strength to remain motivated to draw closer to Him day by day 🤲

[@LaYinkaSanni]

What a wholesome comment! SubhanAllah. You've stated what I struggled to come to in the episode: So much has happened, and yet how much have been grown and moved and changed? May Allah bless you with abundant khair. Allahumma ameen to your du'a! ❤

[@supermangoful]

What a comment, your words are flooding me with love subahn'Allah, thank you! I love how you hold yourself and us accountable and it wakes me up to the question: am I setting my priorities right and striving in the right cause? As we all should do and could do always more but also be realistic about being human and balance the dunya and the akhira.

[@sweethealing.ummeesa]

Such a beautiful reflection. May Allah bless you sis and increase you in khayr and barakah...really beautiful.

[@-God-Is1]

Beautiful reflection. JAK ❤️

[@nadiasafiswe]

So beautifully said sister ❤

[@nazifawal3880]

Alhamdulillah 4 years on I am a husband, a father of two beautiful children, moved from one city (Bawku) to another (Kumasi) and this is not boast. It seems like yesterday but a whole lot has changed about me physically and I have also lost some loved ones. May Allah forgive them and grant them Fidaus 'Alaa. I have had some disappointments (bruises and not scars) I pray that the next 4 years will be prosperous than the last 4. Aameen In Sha Allah.

This is so true. Four years back I was naive and there was some rush and running behind meaningless stuff. But now there is more meaning to life. Thank you for this self reflection.

I teared up When layinka was talking about innocent person she was...i felt she was describing me in that moment...All of my adolescent era came infront of my eyes and i teared up.....This is why i love HTT..We women are connected to eachother even being far away from eachother...we feel eachother pain's and sorrows..Loving the first episode already ..bring it on ladies...

Wow it’s been 4 years ? It doesn’t feel like it Subhanaallah

[@LaYinkaSanni]

Truly! SubhanAllah

This evening feels like you were able to unsee your favourite movie and now you‘re going to the cinema to watch it with your bestest friends. Pure joy. My friends and I, we have been waiting for you, alhamdulellah you‘re back!!! Also looking very good ladies tabarakAllah ❤ lot‘s of love from Austria

[@charla712]

When I look back 4 years ago, I see a woman that is going through a hardship she could have not imagined going through but hanging on tight to the rope of Allah. But today, even with that hardship that shaped the life that I have today, I see a woman full of ingratitude, lazy, forgetful of Allah. I am on a daily basis fully conscious of my mortality but not conscious of my meeting with Allah. I have stopped tasting the sweetness of faith. And I am struggling to maintain the minimum I have left. But I want to taste it again and even better. Do I want it that bad ? That's the question 😢 and yes, as you mentioned sisters, tiredness, exhaustion of I don't even know what to be honest.

[@LaYinkaSanni]

SubhanAllah. Thank you for sharing such a vulnerable reflection. One thing that came to my heart as I read your comment is how beloved your yearning must be to Allah. That desire to be close to Him and taste that sweetness of faith doesn't go unnoticed, and my invitation to you would be to kindle and nurture that yearning. Just because you don't taste the sweetness of faith yet, it doesn't mean your faith is deficient or not there. It's clearly there. Keep calling on Him. Approaching Him with du'a and dhikr because all of that is witnessed and recorded by Him. Nothing is wasted. May He give you a taste of the sweetness of your faith in Him and keep us all steadfast, ameen. ❤

The joy I felt seeing the new video on my feed, I literally thought I was seeing just an old video, but then I see '' 7 hours ago ''. May Allah bless you sisters, it's such a joy to see you again and listen to your words of wisdom and sincerity. Salam to all

[@yasmincheree]

YAY, ALHAMDULILLAH I’m so glad it’s back!

[@nellylah4818]

I seriously missed this

[@tealoverxo4683]

my heart feels so full watching this episode. thank you so much🥹 it really brought me back. i used to watch your videos when i was younger going through a v difficult time, watching your videos brung me comfort. now i jus feel so nostalgic n eeek all the good feelings! ty for connecting me to my inner child again in a way, i even brought out the old tea mug i used to drink from while watching ur past episodes haha. you guys are deffo right to say these past few years all feels like a blur now!🥹 subhan’Allah how fast time goes. i’m beyond grateful to be able to come back watching ur vids now that i’ve made it out of that hardship from the past hehe

[@believer114]

Congratulations on being back. Alhamdullilah. Four years ago I remember watching one of your shows and feeling overwhelmed and that I was at the door of a dark tunnel...a few weeks later I was diagnosed with Postpartum Depression and it lasted for what it seemed to me like the longest time where I thought I was actually dead and I looked at my family as if they could not see me. So Alhamdullilah I survived that phase plus horrible cruel psychological/emotional/financial abuse and intimidation and threats to physical abuse while looking after four children and moving to a new home. Alhamdullilah I am now divorced and I do mean Alhamdullilah. My last baby is exactly four years old and she is thriving but yes it is also a blur for sure and it is definitely a Mercy from Allah SWT. Alhamdullilah for everything. My biggest take way from the last four years is that I asked Allah to teach me to trust Him alone and through it all I always cried for His Guidance, Forgiveness and definitely screamed for His Help and I always felt it arrive at my heart when I was in the worst darkest moments so yes I definitely learnt to put all of my Trust in Allah Azawajal only. ❤

[@-God-Is1]

This episode was excellent, MashaAllah, and I appreciate the reflections. That being said, I feel like everyone was so guarded. It was hard to relate without context about what’s been going on in your lives. I’m trying to find the gentlest way to say this, and I fully understand and respect you wanting to keep private things private, especially online. But it just didn’t feel like a casual chat. I hope this makes sense, and really it’s a good episode just some feedback with love always

[@LaYinkaSanni]

It makes complete sense, and we were aware of this fact, too. There are some things we just do not wish to air on the internet that will live on beyond us, if that makes sense. But your reflection is entirely accurate. I call this the miskeena episode for that reason. 😅

[@-God-Is1]

I fully respect this, sis! I hope you know my comment is coming from a place of care and concern. For what it’s worth, the episode helped me reflect on the past four years (4.5 since I reverted Alhamdullilah) and take stock ❤️

[@LaYinkaSanni]
