“So truly with hardship, there is also ease; truly with hardship there is also ease.” (Surah Ash-Sharh: 5 & 6) One of the things we struggle with is fulfilling the expectations we set upon ourselves. We race against time and compete with one another to achieve our dreams, only to find ourselves feeling frustrated when things don’t go our way. Over time, the frustrations and despair harden the heart. Over time, we find it is hard to be kind to ourselves and accept our flaws. Because everyone else seem to be living their life “perfectly”. But isn’t Allah the only One who is Perfect? Aren’t His plans for us perfect? How do we make peace with this frustrated feeling in our heart? Healing The Heart invites us on a contemplative journey of seeking Allah and His Guidance. This guidance that is meant to lead us gently and kindly to His Light. And with this Light, we will embrace compassion and self-acceptance.

Through this book, the author shares a snippet of the sharp and painful truth about what it feels like living with mental illness while dealing with biased community around us. There is more to mental health than just self-love and self-care. It has been truly liberating to be able to understand more about what we are experiencing, accepting ourselves, and be more compassionate.

“Good things come to those who wait.” But how long must one wait? As Muslims, we are aware of the virtues of bearing patience as stated in the Quran. However, in moments of weakness, we can't help but wonder, "Does waiting have to be this painful?" "Does anyone else feel as anxious as I do when waiting for an answer, a decision, or even a life-changing event to happen?" In this book, author Ezzah Mahmud illustrates the gentle journey of embracing “The Art of Waiting” with faith and hope — from the agonising uncertainty of waiting to the quiet moments of introspection and growth. Through deep personal anecdotes and reflections, this book reveals how waiting is an inevitable part of existence. Each chapter delves into a different aspect of waiting — its challenges, its discomforts, and its profound lessons. With a focus on faith and reliance on Allah SWT, this book is the comforting companion one needs for navigating the uncertainties of life, reminding us that in every wait, there is an opportunity for growth, learning, and deepened faith.
Don’t be afraid to feel, emotions are beautiful, to feel is a way to deal with life episodes. They say to feel and express everything is a sign of weakness and you will appear vulnerable, I beg to differ. Those who have never tried to feel and resist to experience going through their own emotions will appear strong on the outside but apparently they are fragile on the inside, because they never feel, and when we don’t feel, we will never know how to handle a touch of an emotion, that’s why it will easily drive us insane. Diving deep into a feeling will make us want to swim up for air again, to breathe again, to see everything clear again and to believe once more. Choose to feel. To feel is fearless, it breeds courage.
