NEW ARTICLE- Learning How to Fail From The Hajj.

This article, Learning How to Fail From The Hajj, looks at the lessons we may take from our mother Hajjar as we endure our own trials and apparent failures on our journeys to God.

"Hajj is the story of every one of our lives: of the failure and brokenheartedness we endure on the path to God, of the strength and nearness to Him we find along the way."

The Hajj is a once in a lifetime journey that many of our brothers and sisters will be taking in the coming days. But the story behind it is one that we can all reflect upon and benefit from. This article, looks at the lessons we may take from our mother Hajjar as we endure our own trials and apparent failures on our journeys to God.

Peace and blessings,

The 1000 Hearts campaign is an effort to gather 1000 Hearts together in support of Ta'leefs work. 1000 supporters coming together forming one beating heart that helps keep this work alive. By giving $3 a day($90/month recurring) we would meet our annual budget and more. 1000 hearts came from an effort to highlight the individuals that we take care of at Ta'leef. The seeker, the newcomer and the youth. By giving $1/day for each category above you would sustain our work and beneficiaries at Ta'leef. Please support so we can continue lending a heart to those that need our support the most!
