In Islam, the concept of destiny, or Qadar, plays a pivotal role……with certain aspects of life such as birth and death predetermined by Allah.Understanding this belief helps us build a foundation for embracing the power of choice and agency within the journey of life.We can most certainly rewrite our destiny through conscious decisions and actions…and most importantly by Dua.It’s more than just a supplication or a call for help.It’s a heartfelt conversation with Allah (swt).

He was the first cousin of the Prophet ﷺ, and his brother in that he was nursed by the same woman. He was one of the closest and most beloved people to him. When Islam came, he turned his back on the Prophet ﷺ and became a bitter enemy until the very end where after a painful reunification, came a beautiful ending.

For two decades he was a chief antagonist of the Prophet ﷺ, only to be forgiven and given a position of leadership for the sake of the greater cause.

He was the son of the Pharoah of this Ummah who fought the Prophet ﷺ and his companions even up until the opening of Makkah. But through a journey of many twists and turns, came back to the Prophet ﷺ as one of his most loyal companions. His story of selflessness and martyrdom is ever inspiring and impactful.
