I know this was intended for sisters, but I still took benefit from it as a 26M. I am trying to figure out how to not waste the next 4 years the way I felt I did the last 4.
I am 22 years old and back when i see myself when I was a teenager ,I wish I had more confidence in taking decisions and connecting more with my inner self.
I lovee the last point, Hana. Our 20s shouldn't be "The Period that Decides whether or not I get Married", or the "Road to Marriage". Although I'm still in my 20s, I regret wasting one second worrying about taking on that kind of responsibility, or thinking of marriage as a prize. Please talk more about this in the future, so other young girls will not waste their time just sitting idle and desperate
As salamu alaikum sister, I am 17 years old, even though I’m still young I feel like I’ve already wasted a lot of my life. I know I have more potential especially in these years we’re meant to take advantage of. I really appreciate this advice and the advice of sisters in the comments. And I love your videos. JazakiAllahu khayr 🩷
YES love this video Hana!! And another one that's perfect for me personally; turning 23 in a month so I'm still in my early twenties here, and I don't take it for granted that I have sisters / mentors like you who can advise us on how to enjoy our 20s < 3 A lot of what you talked about are things I currently struggle with here and there. Soo reassuring to know I wasn't alone and what you took from those years. P.S. A bit of general feedback: loved how you kept the video concise and sweet! P.P.S Any videos/sources on how to separate your emotions from actions please? xD Definitely one of things I currently struggle most with
Alhamdulillah As I am in my early twenties your video all of a sudden shows on my feed it was the topic about (what was I thinking) I was in a lot of pressure because everyone around me is getting married even those who are younger then me Masha'Allah nonetheless I was overwhelmed and anxious because people around me are urging me to get married they're saying that I am taking to much time choosing someone that I want I won't find and all anyways but Alhamdulillah found this beautiful channel hope to learn more from you sister jazakumullahu khair May Allah almighty reward you immensely.
I don't trust women personally. But there isn't a woman I want that exists. How many men can comment on a woman's stature instead of her appearance without giving superficial answers? And saying a person looks prettier is upon fetishizing their appearances. Which also means you don't view them as humans even. Her qualities are what makes the difference and her qualities can only be measured by herself or her sisters. Her sister's know her best. If he respects her he will form attraction towards her. But only if he is attracted towards her. "Also attraction to me is kindness, care, sincerity etc. not the body for certain.
Why? Because you are best judge of your body and after you the best judge are your Sister's (woman to woman relationship). The sisterhood is a beautiful thing. We do need more strength amoungst our sisters to support each other (when applicable for noble causes/justified causes). The most beautiful bond in our world is the bond between Sisters.
can you give advice about when you give effort and u dont see the results as much and now ur worried on what the future provides for you? i know sabr is key but sometimes i feel like im not being genuine in my sabr and trying to force myself but i am just scared you know what i mean?

I'm 22, and for my teenage years, years would say I wish I had not let school become bane of my life and put my trust in Allah subh regarding things that were not in my hand and read more books.
Asalamualaikum Hana! Thank you for this video. I wish to ask you a question if you feel qualified to answer. I (male in my early 20’s) often volunteer and work with Muslim youth in my community. I’ve had opportunities to talk to both boys and girls, ranging from ages 12-18, about mental health and similar topics. Something I noticed was this, every age range of girls was comfortable and okay with the idea of seeing a therapist and talking to a professional, while every age range of guys was completely against it saying it’s “not masculine” and saying they could deal with their problems themselves. I don’t agree with their thinking, and tried to explain to the boys why it’s not emasculating to see a therapist, as I want what’s best for the youth. But I felt like a hypocrite. I realized for reasons unknown, I wouldn’t really feel comfortable seeing a therapist either. Maybe it’s apprehension? Or maybe deep down I think similar to them as well? Why do you think this trend exists?
Wa alaikum asalam wrwb! We built out a narrative as a society that men don’t express emotions and Muslim men adopted this from kuffar despite our prophet crying publicly, expressing his hurt, etc. We failed men’s mental health in every way. I also think modern day therapy tends to appeal. More to women in its methods and hasn’t asked the question of how we can adapt the methods to more masculine friendly ways. And it probably isn’t because it’s informed by liberalism which seeks to equalize gender differences, not distinguish more. I feel many men would be more comfortable with the coaching model (and many Muslim male therapists have taken to that model).
@@alasryh First of all, thank you for the response. Second, wow. Changing the term therapist to coach is such a different perspective on this. And one that boys or even men might feel comfortable approaching. Thanks for that distinction!

@@alasryhthe mental health that many men see is someone who is capable and holds relative ideas and is robust hence the following of some men. But majority of these men follow foolish men. And Andrew Tate is not correct in any sense.
Assalamualaikum Hana! A brother here, I am always watching your videos, they are excellent. I had a question, why were you so anxious about who you were going to marry and why did it consume you to the extent that it did?
Wa alaikum asalam! Dope question. I ALWAYS wanted a family, always wanted to be a wife and mom, it was probably the biggest dream of mine. If my husband wasn’t in school, I would want children right now but we’re trying to be pragmatic. I can work hard to get into a school for a career or a job I love or build a thriving business with the right help from the right people. But a righteous God fearing husband is a gift from God and you may never get it if He doesn’t write it for you. That made me anxious. Plus I felt so stuck in life. I felt like I achieved what I “could”, people knew me, I had a prestigious degree and career, I had a big friend group, salary was amazing aH. But I was in a very toxic situation and I needed connection and safety that I couldn’t achieve without Allah opening that door. Lastly, I was surrounded by TOXIC marriages and I saw the way a bad marriage drained and destroyed the people in it and didn’t want that. It terrified me because I knew I couldn’t reach new heights being held down by arguably the most influential human relationship in your life outside of your parents (based on research). For many women too, there’s pressure to marry that gives us external anxiety. I didn’t have that pressure as much, but I hear people bagging on women in their late 20s and 30s (I married when I was 28) and I can’t imagine how horrible I would’ve felt if I heard this stuff when I wasn’t married. So all of that combined is why so many women find themselves so anxious around this. There’s also a lot of anti-women rhetoric in the Muslim marriage sphere, normalizing speaking of women as if they’re brainless humans who don’t have a right to share their thoughts, communicate their feelings, who are a burden, that what is fulfilling to a woman in a marriage is actually just meaningless and men should keep her on a leash so she needs you but never too much that she leaves you. It’s a very dog eat dog mentality that red pill has bled into men and there’s a reason why these men are finding it hard to marry unless it’s some innocent clueless (about their true selves) woman from back home or their cousin. No woman in their right mind would want an emotionless, compassionless, and belittling man. I mean unless they’re traumatized or like fighting and haven’t healed yet. Truly righteous Women want loving compassionate relationships like that reflected in the marriage of the prophet SAW and these women will uphold the deen in their marriage easily when that’s present. These are all my personal takes, you just asked so I’m sharing.
@@alasryhWhat kind of school does your husband go to? Is it a med school? Please reply 🙏 because In our country, school means a place where education is imparted only up to class 10th.😅😅😊
Ok! MashAllah I have the same criticism for a lot of the men I see around me. I.e. not emotional/ compassionate. So I see where you are coming from. I always say alhumdulillah that I’m not like them😮💨. Thank you for such an extensive reply, it means a lot! May Allah bless your marriage and your future family.
I have seen many great sisters I remember from high school, now in the mid 30s and early 40s, that are not married , trying to find a husband, but by then , all the good guys who would even consider her already married . If these girls agree to be a second wife, many great successful men will be readily available. For most of history, polygamy was the norm, and being single was awkward and a societal taboo.
And many women would rather remain single than enter into that kind of system. It’s not that simple. It’s a very complicated and difficult family structure.
@@alasryh A woman’s first class ticket to Jenna is having a pleased husband. Today, these single ladies look down on a married woman with children, but they have no clue what the status and rewards of a mother and wife are. It’s half of the religion for a reason . They are drowned in this “ me me ,” mentality, trying to challenge how Allah meant to create everything in pairs and forget it’s not about me, it’s all about submitting to Allah and his commands . Jealousy is normal , but shouldn’t be the sole reason for refusing to be a second wife . Most prophets of Allah had multiple wives , and their kids became prophets. Yet a 2024 girl with an associate degree thinks she’s superior and more advanced and unfit for such structure . Salam
@@alasryh 27 years since my mom died , everyday , everyday I make dua for her I’m sujood . Me and my brothers built Islamic schools for her and mosques in many Muslim countries. These single ladies will be so deprived of this after they die . Children can request from Allah that they want their parents pulled out of the hellfire . When viewed prospectively and at a macro level , a mother and wife is such a gift . And bc of worldly jealousy, they decide to opt out on big , amazing , beautiful rewards and be at a coffee shop at 11 pm with friends.
@@00563535ra allah yurhamha and may Allah bless your mom with jannatul firdous. It’s a lot more complicated than simply jealousy, though even that is a valid enough reason to refuse. It’s an overreach to assume that women who don’t want to be in plural marriages are doing it out of self-centeredness, it’s the red pill thinking at play and very emotionally unintelligent. Marriage is noble, but women still get to decide what kind of marriage they want. And if they don’t want to enter into those, given the complicated nature of the family dynamic, the fact that very few men can operate justly in it (it’s hard to be a just righteous husband to a single wife, let alone more) and a very poor track record of these marriages in many of our communities, women have and will continue to have an aversion to it. And that’s their right. Their decision if they decide to forgo it, there are many doors into Jannah. I myself would never want that for myself, my sisters or my daughters. To each their own, I don’t like this narrative of trying to push women to accept it and to treat women’s emotions towards it as if they’re doing something wrong for refusing.

And if they don’t want to enter into those, given the complicated nature of the family dynamic, the fact that very few men can operate justly in it (it’s hard to be a just righteous husband to a single wife, let alone more) and a very poor track record of these marriages in many of our communities, women have and will continue to have an aversion to it. And that’s their right. Their decision if they decide to forgo it, there are many doors into Jannah. I myself would never want that for myself, my sisters or my daughters. To each their own, I don’t like this narrative of trying to push women to accept it and to treat women’s emotions towards it as if they’re doing something wrong for refusing.
@@alasryh in sa Allah khair . May Allah protect all the sisters and brothers and grant us all jenna .
