I am a consultant psychiatrist and can vouch for the fact that counting one’s blessings and having a positive outlook towards life is a protective factor when dealing with clinical depression.

[@chocolatecookie8571]

So about how traumatised people? I understand the part where shayk Hamza talks about grattitude but in real life I cannot give it a place. There is too much going in the real world. It feels too black and white for me, a world out of my grasp.

[@husenmohamed8284]

After watching this Lecture, all my worries have gone because i am remembered that Allah sw has blessed me a lot.

[@NasirKhan-qc7be]

Found this at the most exact time I was going through it.... "And which of the favours of your lord will you deny"

[@wayfaringstranger4018]

Agreed

[@tazinyunis]

This is the best video I’ve watched in a long time, Alhamdullilah

[@Mixedblood82]

Problem here is His main point is right but we must also get the balance and out things in context. Be grateful with what you have but also work towards solving the issues that are currently here whilst being grateful at the same time. You can't accept the wrong that's taking place in the world and be fine with it. You got to balance it out

[@ahsanbinaslam7170]

Absolutely.

[@ewn789]

Exactly 💯 You are on the point

[@alarifth]

To be fair, he has repeatedly said multiple times in this lecture, that always complaining and being ungrateful is the condemnable act. He didnt say to be content with your unreasonable state. And he advised us to look inward first and THEN outward in a state of calamity. Be fair to Sh. Hamaza brother.

[@MedEducationist]

I came in to express exactly what's said by @alarifth , and yes to agree with your point too @mixedblood82 Please note that Sheikh Hamza at no point asked anyone to be passive against injustices.. but he insisted to be grateful on what comes to you.. I mean, whilst one carries on in their capacity to fight injustices, they need to have Shukr, gratefulness towards Almighty Allah Pak SWT, and they need to refrain from whining and complaining .. They should indeed ask Allah Pak SWT to give them strength and means to fight and correct all injustices, but that should be without complaining. . I'm sure you only tried to shed light on this angle as it wasn't clearly stated by Sheikh (he had a long and complex topic to deal with, and might not have thought of all other angles that people might be inferring from this) I'm sure you inferred the correct view , so did I. . Let's hope most will .. I'm hoping Good IQ people come to hear people of high stature as Sheikh Hamza .. so I'm not worried that they'll misunderstand, In sha Allah ❤

[@shafiyogi]

I pray this man’s voice and message reach every person on this earth! MashAllah

I feel so little, I self check all the time, how did I miss this blessing.

Alhamdulillah, me too, but Alhamdulillah there are some people who have huge egos and never reflect, so I am blessed to feel small and ignorant than to be arrogant in my ignorance

[@khalidmohamed1790]

It’s strange that shaytan ended with his promise to Allah that we won’t be grateful after he’s done misleading us, his main goal is to make us ungrateful. Surah araf verse17

[@blususpect]

I’ve been having this same recently in my life where I actively think of all the blessings I really have & how it could be so much worse. Even throughout history things have been worse, some people have this complaining mentality where they think the Muslims in our current time are dealing with the worst when that’s obviously not true compared to how many blessings we have now like running water & electricity. Al Humdulillah for all the blessings.

[@bint_abdulraouf]

When going through something hard remind yourself to be grateful by remembering 1. That it could be worse 2. That it is in your dunya and not your deen 3. That it is in this life and not the next. Be grateful and Allah will give you more to be grateful about, be ungrateful and Allah will give you more to be ungrateful about.

[@SacredSnippets]

Complaining is often ironically disempowering. Whiners don’t often spend as much energy on transformative grassroots action Things are far from perfect but gratitude will always be a necessity for the human spirit by its design. Hence these verses and reminders. The irony is that with gratitude for what we do have, our reform efforts are also likelier to have deeper spirit and be more sustainable! So with gratitude we are more likely (not less) to be people of transformative action.

Sounds like the message is: just be grateful for the state you're in and don't ever fight against injustice or fight to make things better. Do i have that right?

[@hakimT2024]

no

[@alminafirman5168]

This just 16 minute bro, if you really interested in islam just ask what is you problem to some imam or syeikh and if his answer don't fit you search other maybe the answer you want is infront of you without you asking to anyone.

[@MohamedMohamed-tr2rz]

Well if people are facing zulm whether at home or any other place, keeping quiet about it can bring problems. That is not patience. Quran and all constitutions give the right for life, liberty and justice for all. There are proper ways by laws to protect these rights both at home and in the community. Security, safety and not having emotional or physical abuse , having basic necessities are basic rights of every human being.

[@aishahhumairaabdullah2212]

Agreed.

[@darkerthangray]

definitely. it takes wisdom and maturity to know when to or not to complain, and both approaches should be utilised

[@Antimonious]

You don’t keep quiet. You direct your concerns to your lord and ask of him. He is the only one who understands and can help you. Your Lord has proclaimed, “Call upon Me, I will respond to you. Surely those who are too proud to worship Me will enter Hell, fully humbled.” (Quran 40:60) No disaster strikes except by permission of Allah. And whoever believes in Allah - He will guide his heart. And Allah is Knowing of all things. (Quran 64:11)
