Assalamu alaikum. Welcome to the Zaytuna College Ramadan Podcast. During this blessed month, we invite you to join the faculty, staff, and guests of Zaytuna College as they reflect upon timeless reminders from the Qur’an and the Islamic tradition.
The experience of pain and trauma can greatly distort our view of life—but can trials also offer benefit? Research indicates that a lack of adversity can weaken people by making them less resilient. Heba El-Haddad explores the benefits of tribulation in the Islamic tradition and how hardship can connect us to meaning and reinforce our resilience.
