Between Self-Admiration and Self-Hatred | Midnight Majlis

The end of Ramadan is a time to redouble your efforts. Pray more, fast more—give more

Do you admire yourself? Do you see others’ faults and need for guidance but fail to see your own? And how do you prevent self-accountability from turning into self-hatred? Dr. Omar Suleiman and Sh. Yaser Birjas explore Ibn Hazm (rh)’s reflections on these questions.
