sheikh for number two, emotional regulation, what do I do when I have borderline personality disorder, which is emotional instability and difficulty regulating emotions. I have been diagnosed for over 4 years now and have tried therapy for all those years but my biggest struggle is still regulating them. 🙁

The dua is the following :
إنَّ الحَمدَ لله، نحمَدُه، ونستَعِينُه، ونستَغفِرُه، ونعوذُ باللهِ مِن شُرورِ أنفُسِنا ومِن سيِّئاتِ أعمَالِنا، مَن يَهدِه اللهُ فلا مُضِلَّ له، ومَن يُضلِلْ فلا هاديَ له، وأشهَدُ أن لا إلهَ إلا اللهُ وحدَه لا شريكَ له، وأشهَدُ أنَّ مُحمَّدًا عبدُه ورسولُه.
Inna al-hamda lillah, nahmaduhu, wa nasta'inuhu, wa nastaghfiruhu, wa na'udhu billahi min shururi anfusina wa min sayyi'ati a'malina. Man yahdihillahu fala mudilla lahu, wa man yudlil fala hadiya lahu. Wa ashhadu an la ilaha illallah wahdahu la sharika lahu, wa ashhadu anna Muhammadan 'abduhu wa rasuluhu.
Indeed, all praise is due to Allah. We praise Him, we seek His help, and we seek His forgiveness. We seek refuge with Allah from the evil of our own souls and from the evil of our deeds. Whomever Allah guides, none can lead astray, and whomever He leads astray, none can guide. I bear witness that there is no god but Allah, alone, without any partners. And I bear witness that Muhammad is His servant and His messenger.
Keep me in your duas people 🤎
The thumbnails are always 100%😂😂 great videos love it brother
Respectfully, I think this lecture confuses emotional intelligence (EQ) with dark triad traits. People who are manipulative, vindictive, selfish, and charismatic aren’t necessarily high in EQ—they often have high IQ, which allows them to logically work situations to their advantage, use people, and create chaos for personal gain.
The example of the man who married nine women is classic narcissism: such individuals may “help” others, but only for self-serving reasons, without concern for the harm they cause.
By grouping together people with high empathy (high EQ) and those with low or no empathy (narcissists, manipulators), the lecture risks misleading viewers. Trauma survivors with high EQ—who are more likely to be victimized—should not be equated with those who victimize. This conflation could be confusing and even retraumatizing for survivors.
JazakAllah khairun kaseera brother Belal for such an insightful talk. I listened to all of it and will again listen to it InshaaAllah. May Allah Swt bless you with the best in this world and the Hereafter Ameen
The prophet SAW was such a sweet man <3
Spoken like a true psychologist you creep! You sure u not from pakistan? You kinda remind me of nauman fast pased talkerr
Allahumma Ameen 🙏🙏🙏
Jazzak allahu khairan sheikh.. The discussion about highly emotional intelligence was spot on.. We all have something toxic and we really need to work on it. And the fact you mentioned about exposing too much into news makes you more furious, angry person was spot on.. We just need Awareness of what's happening and that's it, the more we consume the more we become the person which we are not.. ❤
Thank you Sheikh
سبحان الله a much needed lecture May it reach the hearts of all those who need it
آمين يا رب العالمين
and may we all be able to put in practice what we learn from Sheikh آمين يا رب العالمين
Sheikh Jzk khair…tiny observation : people who have high emotional intelligence would not let people walk over them, they have strong boundaries and know when and how to show up for someone and themselves.
What you probably mean is those with high empathy can sometimes forget their boundaries and over extend themselves. Emotional awareness and empathy are too different things.
Jzk khair again sheikh, May Allah swt reward you
Assalamu Alaikum sheikh, Shukraan so much for this lecture
Some ppl believed Dale Carnegie committed suicide. But his family denied it and told a different story because they want to keep selling his books for money. Wallahu 'alam
“Communication is the foundation of Connection & Emotional Intelligence is the core of Communication.”
