The Wisdom Behind Your Pain | Allah’s Names: The Name I Need – Ep. 17

Feeling abandoned is one of the most painful experiences a person can endure. When life feels like a series of tragedies you cannot explain, the question that rises to your lips is: Why?

In this episode of The Name I Need, Dr. Omar Suleiman reflects on four powerful names of Allah: Al-ʿAleem, Al-Hakeem, Al-Lateef, and Al-Khabeer. Through the story of Prophet Yusuf (AS) and the advice of Prophet Yaqub (AS), we learn how trusting Allah’s knowledge and wisdom helps us recognize His subtle kindness even in the middle of hardship.

Even when you cannot see the plan, Allah sees every detail.

During this blessed month of Ramadan, support the work of Yaqeen by making a contribution today.
