Islamic guidance for week 8
A dua and a reflection
رَبِّ هَبْ لِي مِن لَّدُنكَ ذُرِّيَّةً طَيِّبَةً إِنَّكَ سَمِيعُ الدُّعَاءِ
Rabbi hab li min ladunka dhurriyyatan tayyibah, innaka sami‘u‑du‘a.
“My Lord, grant me from Yourself a pure offspring. Indeed, You are the Hearer of supplication.”
Qur’an 3:38
Nausea is not a sign of weakness; it is a sign of the body working hard for new life.
