Yasin’s mother - Yemen - 35 years old
May Peace, God’s mercy and blessings be upon you
At the beginning, I pray God to bless you Dr. Ahmed from his wide bounty and may God reward you the best. I am a wife and mother of two children. I was very depressed. I was crying for anyone to save me, but to no avail. I am from Yemen. The war destroyed my country and its people. I hated religion because of the religious people there. I asked my husband to take me to a psychiatrist for treatment, and he told me that the reason for my depression was my lack of prayer and my reading of the Qur’an. He followed me during times of prayer to pray by force, I was faking prayer to convince him, but I couldn’t really pray. One of my acquaintances advised me to go to a sheikh to help me, perhaps I had an evil eye or envy, as I couldn’t sleep for days and was having nightmares. Every day I was afflicted with a new disease in my body: colon, stomach disease, and so on. One sheikh said I was affected by a spell and the other said I have the adultery of the jinn symptoms. I seek refuge in God, and I believed them. I lived all kind of torments. I hated everything even my children. I prayed God while crying to help me. Once just by chance I watched a video of you on YouTube and started to follow you despite the bad internet in Yemen. My life has turned into heaven thanks to you. I do not know how to thank you. May God reward you well. I have followed your method of praying and how not to miss a prayer. I started praying the religious duty every week method. I felt the beauty of being in the hands to God Almighty while praying. I became eager to read the Quran and know it’s meanings. I cried the day I learned the meaning of (al-Fatihah), which I read every day not knowing what it meant before. I learned the meaning of "the path of those who have been blessed” as I began to realize God's blessings on me in everything. I changed completely, and everyone around me felt it. Everyone began to ask me why I feel happy despite the hell that surrounded us. I became a stranger among my family, I am laughing and rejoicing, while they feel sad and gloomy, even as they asked about the reason behind my change. I tried to change them and advise them, but they did not listen to me. So, I decided to learn how to talk to them, and I'm still watching videos on YouTube to improve myself and looking for my life goal.
May God reward you the best
