Am I A Jealous Person? | Dear Ustadha

Allah has blessed us all differently, but seeing someone enjoy a specific blessing that you don’t have can create feelings of jealousy and even resentment towards Allah. So what should we do when we feel jealous?

Ustadha Lobna Mulla explains the benefits of making du’a for others who have what you want, counting your own blessings, and using social media wisely.
