Life is full of emotional challenges—whether it's fear, loss, sadness, or anger. The Qur'an offers us the stories of prophets who faced these very struggles and managed their emotions with the guidance of Allah. These prophets, like us, experienced intense emotions, but their responses provide timeless lessons on how to grow through adversity.

In this workshop, Ustadha Dunia Shuaib, PhD Candidate, and Dr. Suleyman Derin will explore the emotional intelligence we can learn from the lives of the prophets. Allah sent these noble figures not as beings immune to emotions, but as individuals who faced real, human struggles. Their stories, preserved in the Qur'an, are documented to guide and inspire us.

From the steadfastness of Ibrahim, the patience of Yusuf and Yaqub, the resolve of Musa and Isa, to the unparalleled wisdom and emotional resilience of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon them all), these prophetic examples teach us how to remain emotionally grounded even in the most challenging circumstances.

In this transformative workshop, you'll discover practical tools grounded in prophetic wisdom for understanding and regulating your emotions. Rather than reacting impulsively, emotional intelligence helps us pause, reflect, and respond thoughtfully. By following the example of the prophets, we can learn to manage our emotions without allowing them to control us.

Join Ustadha Dunia Shuaib and Dr. Suleyman Derin for an insightful and empowering session, where you'll learn essential emotional regulation skills, deepen the connection between your thoughts and feelings, and draw strength from the emotional journeys of the prophets, Insha'Allah.
