What do we do with the mistakes that still ache in our hearts?
In the Qur’an and Sunnah, regret is not framed as a dead end — it is described as a doorway back to Allah ﷻ. The Prophet ﷺ said: الندم توبة — “Regret is repentance.”
But what happens when regret feels heavy? When memories linger, mistakes return to mind, and the heart struggles to move forward?
In Episode 13, Dr. Abdallah Rothman explores the Qur’an, ahadith, and the stories of the Prophets عليهم السلام to uncover the deeply meaningful Islamic perspective of al-nadam — how regret, when rooted in sincerity, can become one of the most transformative emotions in our spiritual lives.
From the humility of Prophet Ādam عليه السلام to the duʿā of Prophet Yūnus عليه السلام in the depths of darkness, we are reminded that regret is not a sign of failure, but a sign that the heart is still alive, still soft, and still capable of return.
This Ramadan, we are asking our Instagram community to help raise $5,000 of our overall goal for the newly launched Maristan Academy. Your sadaqah today makes a true impact as we seek to offer new trainings that offer the Muslim community tools to help prevent mental health crises.
